Nice gift. That's a real little gem of a knife.

I am not christian, or asian, but christmas is sweet.
Secular holiday. Lots of presents. Fun.
I recently ordered for myself 3 knives, with some luck they may arrive by the 24th. One of them is the Fallkniven F1, a knife that I handled before but didn't get around to buy (as I mainly use folders). Next to that modern classic, also two truly splendid-looking italian folders.
Look here:
- Viper Gent with Olive wood handle (big detailed picture link). A button pushes the liner aside for unlocking. 72mm N690 (like the Volpe I think) blade. I think it's very elegant:
- Maserin Spider 2 (big detailed picture link), with cocobolo inlay. 77mm Aus-8 blade. Another splendid looking quality gentlemen folder. I think it looks very italian, but also a bit like a Klotzli:
Actually, I already bought myself a christmas present a week ago so I overindulged with the order above! Anyway the one that I bought last week was a Fontenille Pataud backlocking laguiole with amourette handles. So very smooth. So elegant:
I think this was enough buying for a while!

My Scoutmaster sent me a Cold Steel Bushman by way of the Big Brown Truck for Christmas. A thoughtful guy. :thumbup:
I'm anticipating a Boker Subclaw, some type of Benchmade Ritter, a Victorinox, and probably something from Kershaw from my girlfriend's father (he's a knife enthusiast like me---it's so nice to have something in common.

that should be a pretty interesting review, considering I don't know much about those knives.Since I bought them, and since I've already "opened" them, I can official declare that Christmas is here! Since I'm divorced, and live alone (don't feel sorry for me as I don't) I wrapped them up on Saturday when they came, but unwrapped them yesterday as I figured it didn't really make all that much difference! The knives I speak of are a ZT0200, and a Case Cigar Whittler, both of which are already in my pockets. My 24 year old son, currently living with his mom, comes out about mid-morning on Christmas Day, and I have him a ZT0200, Kershaw JYDII Composite, and a STR Deep Carry clip for the JYD all wrapped up and under the tree. I will definately get more enjoyment/blessings out of watching him open his gifts than opening whatever I get for myself could give me.
So, MERRY CHRISTMAS to all the knifenuts!!

+1, if you don't celebrate Christmas, that's fine. But why even read, and especially why even post a response in a thread with Christmas in the title??
Seems like an attempt at controversy, which is not in keeping with the spirit of the season:grumpy:Oh yeah, the Christmas knife. Well, I already have an original Kershaw S60V Blur and a XXXX factory second S60V Blur to use and abuse, so for Christmas I got myself ONE MORE S60V Blur blem to do some customizing with:thumbup:

I have been my own Santa. I got a used Spyderco Dragonfly, a used Spydie Tim Zowada, and an NIB foliage green Spyderco Rookie in the last week or so. Oh, and I got myself a sweet Colt Viper about a month ago as an early present.
I've been good this year

Kershaw Cyclone, plain-edge, bead-blasted finish. I'm EXTREMELY pleased with it. I still can't believe how high-quality this knife is for under 50 bucks, it's mind blowing... Very good job Kershaw! You've just a new loyal customer...
