Great review, great post. Love the camp and the knife..., I'll have to look into getting one of these thank you!
Was seriously thinking of purchasing one of these after I checked the exchange rate. Unfortunately there seems to be a six month waiting list, as of Sept 07, so could be longer now.
Stuart was the knife delivered sharpened?
I may contact them to check on the current waiting list and also to see if theres any chance of them making it with wooden scales for me.
BTW nice review!
Well I am still testing mine out, it has been used for dealing with a deer and a number of camp chores, it seems quite a capable tool.
But yours is a special magic one.....
It is indeed, it doesn't so much cut things as they part of their own accord in respect of it.
I get the feeling he would be happier to know that it's being used and not locked up as a drawer queen. The same with the Norlund axe.
Come on, spill the beans!
Now you're asking! I think it was O1. I wanted something that would be relatively easy to sharpen using my limited skills and that would cast masses of sparks from a firesteel. I've heard that the A2 - although not as good as O1 with firesteels - is still able to generate reasonable sparks. S30V does not really give you a good spark at all, from what I've been told.
