a Top rate slippe!

mitch13 · Dec 4, 2007

I received this 1 yesterday by Al Warren. I'm really impressed with it. As it's his first single blade slippie, normally multi blades or lock backs.
Great fit & finish with strong spring.

3" flat grind S30v blade, nickell silver bolsters & fittings.
Topped of with some killer Kiwi red stag.
Cheers
Mitch

As you know I have a soft spot for single blades as well. So we'll have to verify this... I'll pay the shipping.

Okay, I'm confused... Is there some tongue-in-cheek that's over my head, or are A.C. and Al different makers? Thanx,

Mike

Mike,
No tongue in cheek. There are 2 Al Warrens & yes they bth have the initials A C Warren.

Al in california has been making knives for along time.

While the Al warren in Portland, was primarily a sheath maker who is now making fixed blades as I understand it.

Hope this clears it up a bit
