For want of a better description ;)

4mm 01 tools steel, oil hardened and tempered. 200mm long, cutting edge 98mm. Handle is Olivewood epoxied to the full tang and pinned. Lovely filework on the spine, representing a Zulu spear.

Although odd in shape, the knife is very comfortable to hold and use.

Wow Jojo,
That was a suprise, when I read "Tactical", I expected to see black, angular and entirely unnecessary outside of special forces circles.
Words like "anatomical" or "Ethereal" would be better descriptions for me.

Very nice

Nice work! Graceful lines which usually translate into ease of use and powerful grip. Skillful file work on the spine! Altogether a great little knife! Can't wait to see the leather work.

I was expecting Rambo and came across something altogether more flowing, it looks like a user, but it also looks like it could be quite surgical.

I too like it - very much, but I have enough knives at the moment, and I'm really going off 01.

Well, I was not expecting that much compliments for this knife :) I was fiddling with some plasticine some while back and based the handle on the shape that came out!

I was in a hurry this morning and couldn't think what to call it, hence the daft name.Thanks guys :)

May be I should double the price........ :D

I dont understand this at all???????


That knife is gorgeous! And cheaper than an F1......and not a "me too clone".

If I didn't have my new knife imminent I would snap this one up

I'd love to see a small version of this as a backup / discrete knife!

The guy seems to even have registered just for it ;)

Welcome at BCUK and enjoy your aquisition !

Hi fredcraft,

I appreciate you're pulling my leg, but you've got a point, and it deserves a response. When this knife was first offered for sale I was tempted, but I thought one of the established posters would want it, and it would be rude of me to jump in for it with a first post. I was suprised when I saw it was still for sale today, and at a reduced price. There's only so much temptation a man can withstand, so I bought it.

I do feel that I've taken from this community before giving something back, and I'll try to repay that debt.:sad6:

Hey there Tinderbox now don't go making an apology. As you correctly stated this knife has been available for a few days now and the fact that you held back is a noble gesture but not necessary IMO. All is fair in love and war and there is nothing in the rules that says otherwise. JoJo's knives are stunning (I now own two :D ;) ) and I am sure you will be absolutely made up with it. Welcome to BCUK :)
