Its a very nice little knife but it's not a CRKT its a custom made knife.How are you liking that CRKT Persian? I've been looking at one fir awhile, but can't justify such a "fancy" knife
No. No. No. No......

Nice setup. I have that watch but only have the satin Manix 2. Those DLC ones are pretty nice looking. Really so paired with that watch.

After Clay Allison sharpened it for me on the 'Wicked Edge' @ ECCKS.
(thanks Clay!)

Beautiful edge you have there on that one... Is that around 15 degrees?
Love it.
My small 21 today. Still like my 25 the most but this thing I hard to leave behind.
I really, really hope that CRK begins to do wood inlays on the 25. That would make me a CRK customer again!!

This blade on the jobsite has certainly held it's own :thumbup:

Thank you
It's 11 per side.
I thought 15 might have been a little on the high side but I hated to guess any lower than that. Get it to 10 and you can use it to comb your hair.
Sorry, new EP Apex user here and I'm currently obsessed with the edge. I can look at pics like that all night.

What's the advantages of having both hollow and flat grinds? Just curious, I've seen this model on knife center and couldn't quite figure that out.
I didn't really research it tho :stupid: that's why I have u guys

Short answer: I've found no advantages so far and honestly think it would be a much better tool if they just kept the flat ground fro the whole blade.
Longer answer: My fixed blade and folder collection has been focused on function for a long time, and I have accumulated lots of knives that are very useful. Lately, though, I've been adding a few novelty designs just because I want some variety. I wanted to add a couple of tantos to my folder line up (never really gave them a chance), I like Terzuola's designs, and I'm a fan of American and Japanese Spydercos. The weird grind was kind of a bonus, since it made it a little more of an oddball. I wasn't expecting any performance advantages.
I carried the Double Bevel gain today, paired with a Case Humpback Whittler (CV, of course).
