Yup, with sheath and scales added, I don't have much over $100 in any of them. I think my stainless ats 34 was the most expensive.
As you can tell, I will use any excuse to shameless post a pic of one of my osf knives. :wave:

I use a Fallkniven F1 and it's the most expensive bit of kit I own! I'm looking for a new knife soon, though, and I'm thinking of getting one of them there puukko type ones... Not that there's anything wrong with the F1, however... I just fancy a change. I also use a cheap army surplus Golok, which does me just fine for cutting up firewood and matches the rest of my cheap ex-army kit. Good kit is cheap kit, if you ask me, and living in what is traditionally an army town it's all over the place!

Tahawk,
Yes, I removed the plastic slabs (slippery). I straight wrapped a layer of leather and added a paracord wrapping. This handle is indestructible and it gives a great yet comfortable grip. The only downside is that the paracord absorbs anything fluid, thus it's not great for skinning.
Cheers,
David
i've been waiting for a couple of years for my osf, or does it just feel like it??? :roll:

cheers, and.

Yeah but Nick's new bushcraft knife is a stunner. Prolly more pricey but we got Nick for the osf knife at a rock bottom price. He is incredible--and he's just a youngun. :shock:

Nick is rapidly becomming one of those that I look up to for guidance in better knife making. He has impressed me both in what I have seen online and from what I have heard him speak to me over the phone and email. He is, in my opinion, a real rising star. A star of which I hope to keep contact with.

wow!!!!! you guys have a kings ransom in knife steel--- make that a couple of kings and a duke or two!! I have a technique for you guys doing your own handles and such. If theres a shop where you can get boat repair materials, try getting some epoxy clearcoat, [brush on], and to it add a little of that non-slip additive they use on boat decks, makes a nearly indestuctable coating,very good grip and works really great over paracord. I have been using it for years,have not found anything better.

I also use an F1 and an F1 (both customised), but these days I tend to grab my "old" Felleskap (blade by Trond on British Blades, handle and sheath by me).
I make the sheaths different these days though.
