Hi all!

Anybody had any dealings with these knives? Find myself getting more and more tempted!

What do you all think?

Thanks again

Haven't seen or used one in the flesh,but looks well thought out.

I borrowed his 'thumb scoop' idea on a knife of mine and it works nicely.

He seems to know his stuff and it's a decent price too.

Check out the quality of the steel and temper info, the rest of the knife is asthetics its weather you find it sexy or not, looks like a good user though from the photo.

According to the site it's 3.9 mm O1 tool steel with RC59 and a scandi grind, which is pretty much a classic bushcraft setup.

not bad, but it's hardly revolutionary...

I've seen a youtube clip of the guy using this knife here:

It's a "classic" bushy knife, however more direction classic red-handled mora than RM.
The bamboo handle itself not only gives a superb grip, but is also a pleasure to look at. The thumb cut-out does just what it's supposed to do, it gives you that extra power and control when using the knife in the lever grip.
The knife arrives sharp and can be used directly as it is.
The sheath is of high quality leather, and gives a solid feeling and shows good workmanship.

I prefer this knife to any of the RM clones, but then again I've always been a bit partial to the moras, so that fits.
All in all, this knife is definitely worth the money you pay for it, and it will surely keep up with any and all of my smaller bushy knife needs.

The fact that Mike Lummio is a gentleman to deal with, and that he stands 100% behind his product, makes this an even better knife still.

Highly recommended!!
