This is an order I placed with Samuel Lurquin (Belgium) a few months ago. It arrived this morning and I can say it made my day :)
It is a sturdy knife with a 4 1/2" edge and 5" handle. The blade is W2 and the handle ironwood. Came with a nice leather sheath with wooden interior.
Very good fit and finish, excelent balance and handle ergonomy. The wood is one of the nicest ironwood I've seen.
Samuel worked out the details with me and kept a good communication, a real pleasure to deal with.
All in all, I'm very happy about it!

 
I like the Croc a lot! It looks designed to go right to work. Great looking ironwood. :thumbup:

Yes, sturdy in deed. A fine hunter/skinner/mini bowie ;) in deed.
You hit the jack pot. Is the clip sharp?

As good non-professional knife photos as I have seen.
I assume they are non-professional since not marked.
 
Thank you guys :)
The clip is not sharp but I think it can be done. I didn't ask for a sharpened clip.
The pics are amateur indeed, I took them with entry-level equipment: Nikon D40 and 35mm prime lens (Nikkor 35mm F1.8). The lens are intended as fast general use lens but stopped down to F13 they perform good for knife pics.
 
Been looking at this one since yesterday.
I'm jealous. :)
Lovely DI and the handle looks comfy. :thumbup:
The blade shape seals the deal.

Congrats, Flava ! :cool:
