A sweet little fighter from Kirby Lambert!

[cockroachfarm]

One of my favorite knifemakers, Canadian Kirby Lambert, just sent me a few shots of a sweet little fighter he'll be introducing at the CKG Fall show. It's called "The Claw".

Here are the specs (supplied by Kirby):

Blade material: CPM S-30v
Blade length: 3.5 inches
Bolster material: 6al/4v titanium
Handle material: Carbon fiber
Handle length: 4.25 inches
Liners: 6al/4v titanium (blasted, anodized)
Backspacer: 6al/4v titanium post construction (blasted, anodized)
Pocket clip: 6al/4v titanium (blasted, anodized)
Thumb stud: 6al/4v titanium (blasted, anodized) with Hematite inlay

What do you folks think? "Winner" or "Binner"?

Kirby makes some great knives and he is a really nice fella as well. It was a pleasure getting to meet him this summer.

it's very appealing aesthetically and it has an air of originality...I imagine that you'll be buying a half dozen and I'm anxious to try one of yours
