Ok first a small review, then pics.

The Knife: First thing that came to my mind when I opened(besides "Sh*t its here!) is the weight. Its a bit heavy, but a very comfortable heavy. Just enough to remind you its in your hand, but not heavy enough to be uncomfortable on your belt or while making fine cuts.The thumb ramp is really aggressive, but still comfortable, and it throws sparks better than a hacksaw blade. The contour of the handle sits very well in your hand. Drilling with it would be a chore, but otherwise I prefer it this way.This could quite possibly become my main outdoors blade.Its a simple knife, nothing flashy and it gets the job done. I love it!

The Sheath: I got design #1. It is an extremely well crafted sheath. Once you remove the knife about 25-30 times, it doesn't hold it as tight and allows for a less awkward draw.

Edit: The sheath holds the scout fire steel ok, but I don't have an Army model to test out.

Pictures!

Here is a glamor shot

Still Shaving sharp(I went through a few sticks, trying to find one that hadn't been eaten up by bugs, So I did alot more cutting than the pictures show)

And last but not least! Obligatory Customer and Maker picture. I am in Texas so I couldn't take a picture with Dan. Also, my face came out weird in the picture....so I gave my self an awesome beard to hide the ugly

I wish there was! Facial hair doesn't run in my family, which sucks for me, because I would love to compete in the world mustache championship. Oh well.



Are all the pictures showing up? The wifi connection I am on is slow, and some of the pictures seem to not be showing up.
 
Pics come through fine for me.

A good and useful review. Your experience matches mine ... though I've mainly used mine in the kitchen (it's GREAT with veggies).

Keep working on that mustache. You never know what might happen. :thumbup:
 
Awesome pics. Judging fro the first pic I'm gonna guess you smoke Camels, maybe wides? The disguise works but mainly because of the Army of Darness shirt. :thumbup: Don't worry about the facial hair chics dig scars and steel.:D Well I guess that whole money and power thing too but DAMN it we have scars AND STEEL!

Glad to know they work. The only one not showing for me now is the pic of me in pajamas with the huge spark.

Who knows! I am 21 and my 13 year old half brother has a thicker stashe than I do. Someday maybe...a boy can dream

Turkish Royals, not a huge fan of wides. Trying to quit for about the 5th time:grumpy:. Heh, ya I am a Bruce Campbell fanboy. Most of my scars ARE from Steel.

I like the beard. Also, I just watched Army of Darkness about a week ago. A classic film.

One of the B-Movie greats.

Nice review, DarbyFett!!

I aim to please!


Thanks, I really am extemely impressed with the knife. I can't get over how great it feels just sitting in my hand. If I had no will power, I would be hairless as would my cats and everything that could be cut in my house, would. I really need to go camping so I can use the knife for its intended purpose.

Man. Great review!!

It was fun. I was going to take a video, but didn't really know what to do. I may come up with something.
 
video would be awesome.....you could include me too! (cardboard cutout).

:D :eek: :p
