Your picture just caused me to purchase a Byrd Hawkbill, thanks!

I've never tried anything from the Byrd line or a hawkbill, and the 8cr is not a problem in a SE blade...the $30 just jumped right out of my account, LOL!
Ha, that's great! :cool:

Byrd knives are great, especially the serrated models...for some reason the byrd serrations are ground more rounded and shallow, which means less snagging and better cutting. I preferred it even to the Tasman Salt:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=85803

This Hawkbill has been used and carried a lot and it's just a super solid little knife. Despite what many people think, a hawkbill blade makes a terrific EDC. I'll be looking forward to seeing what you think of it!

I just opened this up, and first impressions are fantastic. Very well done budget blade, solid lock up with no play, blade drops when mid-lock is depressed, and I do like how the serrations are less aggressive than the Golden SE's. I don't know why, but I'm surprised, haha! I will have no problem recommending Byrd as a budget option in the future and I look forward to getting some work out of this 8cr Hawkbill.

I'm going to cross-post this over in the Byrd forum.
So it goes.

Tried to setup a pic with my Dragonfly Salt while out for a walk and my photography assistant had to check that everything was being done to her standards...

Funny how many different shades of green it looks like depending on the lighting and white balance.

teleworking and sitting in meeting for hours, so i need fidget toys.

the caribbean is so smooth and is a pleasure to open and close.
the resilience is so solid and wonderful and feels like a much nicer knife than the price would suggest. i can't wait for it to be in s35vn.
the barfly is for fidgeting when i can't pay attention to what i'm doing. :)

I thought there was a resilience in s35vn??? The blue one? :confused:
