GONE
This blade is very similar to the Mora, but this one seems more flexible. It's stainless high carbon (but it does stain a little). With - or so the blade packaging tells me - an Rc of 57.
It has brass both ends with bone at the front and mammoth ivory at the back with black and red spacers to add colour.
I've used it and just sharpened it to silly sharp. It comes with a straight (no firesteel) double dangler of lesser quality than my usual stuff, and there is a rivet in the end of the handle which detracts from it's looks.
Now for the positives - it's very light, extremely comfortable and especially in damp conditions supremely grippy, for a long time it was the first knife to go in my pocket when I went out, but with my custom from Stuart M near and another blade awaiting a stacked handle I feel the need to clear the cupboard a little - expect more to come.
It's second hand, not perfect but a joy to use.
So £40 to clear (that includes paypal and postage as ever).
Thanks for looking
Richard
