Thank you Charr!!
No problem man! Really great pair those two make. I didn't realize how similar their designs were until I saw your pick, but they definitely have a common relative somewhere down the line

Sweet trio man, all great looking pieces.
Awesome!!
Thanks brothers! They really all work together for a great EDC too. The Hanson is a super lean and razor edge, and is done with an overall hardness of 60-61, with a good combination of 1084, 15N20 and W2, so it is actually a very good blade for use, and an insanely good slicer. The handles are done in Bog Oak as well, and my crappy cell pictures just cannot do them justice at all!
I'm going to have to break out the good camera if I can soon and try and get some shots with this slim beast!
The Shiro handles heavier tasks like a beast. M390 takes a good beating if it needs to (not that I would ever do that to my little 95

The Paul Long sheath on the Hanson slides so cleanly into the pocket that you don't even notice it even in my slacks. It rides in the same pocket as my Shiro and they get along without even bumping each other

I wasn't sure about the size of the Hanson at first to be honest, because the handle felt maybe a little cramped on my large hands, but it has grown on me, and it doesn't have that feeling at all anymore!
