Ducci, did you ever own this top Mean Streets:grumpy:?

I took one for the team and picked it up as a user so I wouldn't trash the other two. So now I figure Hammy owes me a knife.

Actually it is a great user. A few owners ago it had been sent to BarkRiver for a full convex grind and some of you know that I love full convex and that I also like Bark River Knives. But I do wish that people wouldn't mess with these very nice older designs. It does make me little weak in the stomach to look at it missing nearly all of its choil. :mad:
 
You can tell that Grinducci hasn't touched that puppy yet 'cause it still looks like a knife that will perform knife-like functions!!!!

How does it slice?

Well it is now .187 at the spine where the ricasso ends going towards the tip. I just went and cut up some boxes and it is a smoking slicer. :eek: :eek:

But this one is going on some backpack trips in 2008:thumbup:
 
If you want to look at a choil I got a dremel and will return it to you in two weeks. Heck I won't even charge you for the work. Just ship it to me and I'll hook you right up with a choil.

BTW next time you find something that nice, with a little extra ground off the edge, you don't have to take one for the team, just send me the contact info and I'll take it.

Darn that is a nice looking knife even without the choil.

...and Grinducci always seems to leave the choil, while paring away many of the other, more knifeish parts. Psychologically, that may be significant -- but I ain't a psychologist! :D

Nope, not my handy work, but I'll give you $20 for it and make a real knife out of it!
