That pattern looks very different from the prototype pics. Not sure I like it as much as I thought.

If I'm not mistaken, the other Lum in that pic above was made by Brad and not Bob Lum. Brad is a master of te craft :D

Great photos Brad, and an interesting pattern in that CF.

While I agree that Brad does fine work, can't honestly see him putting Bob Lum's mark on a knife he built himself.

That looks great. Ok, after my CS orange M2' the CF Lum will be my last knife of the year......I went though the unfortunate exercise of figuring out how much I spent on knives in 2010. It's way too much!! Of course, I love them. It would be interesting to see how much we all bought this year. Probably an obscene number! I'd start, but I'm embarrassed at what I spent. the scary thing is that it's a lot less than some of you guys!! :D :D :D :eek: :eek:

Sorry fo the mini hijack.

Ive never been impressed with the CF patterns until now. I have an opportunity to buy a new Lum (blem) for $45, so I may pick that one up to test out the platform and then if I like it buy this CF model.
