I agree ! :)

And the design is very near from a famous french knifemaker model, Alain Descy's Resquiou :



:o

I'm the proud own of the small one :

I agree the blue almit walker is one of the best spydie ever made ! :cool:

1863 for me

It depends...
Rocktead Knives are in Zdp189 steel too. You can see a guy chopping bambous then slicing sheets of paper without problem in their website.

Where could I preorder the lum? :confused:

Thanks ! :)

Will this be a carry knife? I understand he considers his knives workers, not just safe-queens.


It is a big knife (same size as a mini manix but lighter) but I will carry it easily. It is a "folding fixed blade", built like a tank :eek: It's very very sharp. It's like if it was a Chris Reeve ...

great little bali !

Talonite and Tritium insert are not cheap...

Thank you guys ! :)

There are some in stock in his website for your info :p

Cheers,

It cuts like a laser of course.
The weight is 143grams, 199mm opened (like a manix 83mm), so It's a pretty big knife but easy to carry !

some news from a guy on KF (the tourist) :

I just got off of the telephone with Kevin/Spark.

The entire server has to be replaced. It is an expensive endeavor, and as you can guess, Kevin is very unhappy about financing a long-term project that does him little if any good.

The Deacon wrote:The little damasteel FB is beautiful. Question on the folder. The lockbar does not seem to be fully engaging the blade tang. In fact only seems about halfway on it. Is that just the angle of the photo?

Yeah that's right ! but It's enough and it's rock solide.

Some pics of my two Anso knives :
My rebel, recently sent back to Jens for resharping :

Those are some great questions, and ones I'd like answered as well. Can we have a pic of the Captain, or is it still under :spyder: -wraps?

Way too much screws on the handle and how bizarre blade ...

What's this knife made for? What's the utility of this special design? :confused:
Hunting? fishing? SD? :rolleyes:

Thanks,

Moonlight
