Goodbye petrified snot scales and redundant lanyard hole, hello Mopane wood scales! 🙂
Even the centering improved!

Elegant combination on that one. Maybe Knifecenter will take a hint and release an exclusive with their wood scales.

I agree, those look great Larry. Also agree that hopefully KnifeCenter comes out with some more Pakkawood exclusives.

Beautiful! I really hoped we would see the Lum Tanto again some day but Sal stated it probably won’t happen.
