Anyone have this neck knife in Talonite or S30V ? MG2

[jujigatame]

Don't own one but have handled a few in S30V. It's a nice piece, a 2-3 finger knife.

Great knife,I am going to pick up another one at Blade this year.

What is the dif between the 2 steels ? Finish ? MG2

[jujigatame]

Well, for one, Talonite isn't steel. Check the link below for a good primer on it.

From the leather work I know where this knife came from and I have done business with him in the past and was who I was planning to order from when ready to get a Bitterroot . Looks like a very nice set up for small game hunting and general carry outside . Thank you for taking the time to post these pictures , regards MG2 .

Hey MG2,

I got these from Christine Simonich herself, the kydex sheath was included with the BitterRoot & she also sold me the black & brown sheaths additionally.

I believe she had the sheaths made for her by a guy in Illinois.

It took me a couple of months from start to finish to get in contact with her until I had the knives in hand she is very busy.

[CENTER]Good Luck[/CENTER]
