“Single Bladed Slipjoints, Traditionals of course!”

I've been pleasently surpised by the Bear and Son, especially for the price.
Very smooth pull, especially to the half stop. Not a bad shut either and no blade rap. Blade is a nice carbon, not sure exactly what "5th generation" carbon means. The bevel grind is even and
I haven't needed to sharpen it yet.
The handle material on mine is ok, I'd rather get that natural bone one, but overall I'd consider buying another Bear and Son. Or a new Queen as I belive B&S are manufacturing the US Queens.
Thanks for the first hand review! Maybe il jump on it this week

When I first came to BF in 2014, I had no interest in single-bladed folding knives. But at the end of that year, I visited my daughter, who was living in Spain at that time, and discovered that Spanish folders were almost all 1-blade knives. I've gradually acquired many single-bladed knives, and carry them regularly. (But I think my favorite folders are still multi-bladed ones.)

Here are the souvenir knives I bought in Spain almost 10 years ago (I apologize for the poor quality of the first photo - I've improved as a photographer over the past decade):
