I like the SOG handles, I have and use a Field Pup, my hands do not get sore or tired. If you have access to some Canadian or Americian websites this knife is a bargin. Don't really know what the shipping across the Pond would be but it would be worth looking in to it. Regards Ardri

Congratulations to you, glad to hear wife and young Nathan are doing well. As for the knife I grew up in the Canadian Bush and was given a "new" meaning my knife by my grandfather when I was six. He had me show him that I could cut a piece of cord, shape a tent peg and then handed the new...
