Let me say thanks again to neeman, Thank You!
The Holidays have been good, and I have been too lazy to get the gear out for knife pics, until tonight.
neeman, I am happy to tell you that I have been, and will continue to carry/use this knife (you may notice the re-profiled edge on the main blade
)
I honestly never really thought much about the Canoe pattern. Spear type blades are really not my favorite, but the single spring design keeps the knife pretty pocket friendly even though it is about 3.75" long.
The f&f is better than my other Queen, an Amber Bone Trapper, blades move smoothly and are tight with no wobble when open.
All in all a fine pocket knife that I will be happy to use for years to come.

That is superb wish I could've been here for a chance. Excellent knife and great win!
Great Photos!
Yes the Canoe is one of my favorite patterns.
It has a hefty and short blade strong enough to do any work, and on the other side a thin wide blade just right for fine work.
All of this on a single spring and only 3 5/8" long!
Enjoy and use in Good Health!!

Nice bevel there Flymon! :thumbup: Is it a 15 degree on each side? Or is it around 12 degree?
I try to remain bevel headed.
The blade on this one is pretty thick so I think the angle looks a little lower than it probably is. I used he 20° setting on my Lansky system, but I don't put the blade in quite as far as they suggest, so I would estimate around 17° or so.
All I know is that D2 will get pretty sharp
