Dexter, what can you tell me about the new Lum Encounter?

[shootist16]

Came across some pics of the Lum Encounter. Looks pretty good. It is made by Seki-cut. Have you seen one? Do you have any info on this company? Someone said it was the same outfit that makes knives for several well known companies.

The Encounter has a 4" blade of D2 steel.

I like the looks of it but would like to get an opinion of the quality.

Dennis - I fondled these knives at the Seki-Cut booth. Excellent fit and finish, great lock up, and very good edge quality. IMHO very high quality products. If you get one, let us know!

What is the handle material on these knives?

 

[blademan 13]

Excellent question, Keith. I was wondering the same thing. Seki-cut has made quite a few knives with Micarta and it would sure be nice if that is what one of those black handled ones were

The handle material in the pics are:

1. anodized aluminum
2. black g-10
3. beadblast aluminum
4. black g-10 and stainless steel, giving a bolster effect.

Moteng does list a model number SC104 that has linen micarta handles. They also list a small encounter that has the same handle configurations. They do not have the specs on the small listed, however.
