I saw this knife at the Bass Pro Shops called Browning Black Label Turning Point Carbon Lockback Knife. I like the looks, it's designe by Russ Kommer. What I don't like that much is the price, or the 440 steel. Does anybody have any experience with this knife or anything "Black Label" by Browning? What are your thoughts? I would use it as an EDC for when I feel like carrying a fancy looking knife in my pocket.
(The only firearm I own is a Browning 12ga, so that's also why it caught my eye.)

Actually I had a a tracer that I ended up giving to a lady friend of mine. It was a real nice little knife, kinda like myerco in that they make knives at different pricepoints, from economy to quite nice. If you like it I'd say go for it.
 
own 3 different browning linerlocks .. most recent a black label flash i threw on a order on sale for cheap. all have pretty thin liners that engage all over the place. also all 3 much like the turning point will require removing bolster to adjust pivot

I have one exactly like the picture.
I'd agree the price is a tad high.
The jeweled blade is attractive as is the CF. Which is mainly why I got it.
The f&f is very good on mine.
The placement of the thumbstud makes opening a little difficult for me, but not bad.

I'd say it fits your "an EDC for when I feel like carrying a fancy looking knife" criteria pretty well.

I really liked the jeweled blade too.

Thanks for all the replies.

I actually went on their website to read more on them and it states the handle material is real CF. I was under the impression it wasn't real.
