Besides CPK knives, whaddaya like?

Pàdruig Pàdruig

I just had a thought to compare behind the edge thickness with some other knives on my dresser
(I need to bring some digital calipers home instead of closing my eyes and using my nipple pinchers)

My .14 Mr Kotter is a tiny tiny bit thicker BTE than a insingo sebenza , but very close !

Not to my surprise CPK Mark CPK Mark 10" wheel grind is thinner than anything in the pic by far

So if you have an insingo sebenza it's very very close to that BTE with a much nicer and taller hollow grind

This gets me excited! Thanks for the measurements. I also got in on Lorien's preorder, with a Mr. Kotter. Seems like I'm in the middle with .179. Can't wait!

Thank you, my friend! Though I don't have any Sebenzas (yet), I do appreciate the comparison.
 
EMCEE EMCEE 's knife is going to be ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as another one I added to the batch. That thing is, well...holy shit
anyway, good progress today for the Kotter Club! Probably start grinding steel here pretty soon. Might hook up some kind of time lapse gadgetry

That’s an awesome all around nice sized (on paper at least) dagger and nice lather sheath.

That was going to be one of my next purchases. How do you like it?

For me, it's a perfect practical size for actual carry without getting in the way. Like everything I've handled from LG, it is very solidly made, and arrived very sharp. And yeah, the sheath from Chattanooga Leather Works is a nice bonus as well. I'd say if you're thinking about it, grab one.

Wish micarta was an option on their stuff. Tried out the magnate recently and did not care for their g10. Otherwise great knife.

I don't mind the G10 on the Magnate, but was wondering how it would feel on this knife. It is much grippier than typical G10, due to the extensive texturing, more so than the Magnate.
