Camillus Talon

Thinking out loud here...:0) but..
wonder what the possibilities of a 5" blade Talon in 154-cm. A great utility / hunter..
Perhaps even out ot the same steel the Becker Camp Knife is made of...
Just thinking out loud you understand....

Ravenn,
Thanks for the interest! We made the TALON as a custom collaboration with Rob Simonich, the designer. The size and handle scale designs were his best sellers, so that is what we went with. I'll check with Rob on his thoughts about a 5" bladed TALON/CETAN, but I've never seen one that he made.

As far as 0170-6C bladed TALON, I don't think you will see that, since the stuff rusts VERY easily. The construction of the TALON doesn't allow for coating the blade since the scales are hand "blended" [sanded] around the tang for a perfect fit. This would remove any coating and be a perfect place for corrosion to get under the scales.

But we may see other blade materials, we just have to wait and see how the buying public goes for the 154cm version.

Thanks again!

Stay Sharp!
