Thanks for asking Brian and Mike...it's one of the new 'non-clones' (like Reate) out of China, and it's a beauty...titanium handles, frame lock with hidden lock bar insert and overtravel stop, layered VG10 steel...the layers are visible though I don't know what the VG10 is layered with.Watcha got there, Chef?
It's much larger than I'm usually comfortable with. 8.5" long, 3.625" blade, 6.08 oz. Here are some comparison shots with my small 21:
thanks for those picture - it's a BEAST!

I'm participating in a challenge to carry no knife or MT except the Leatherman Surge throughout December. So until I crack under the immense psychological pressure of this challenge, the Surge will be it.
Cool pic! How do. You achieve that effect?Epic carry today!

Ha ha... I was close...Apparently it's a giant piece of turd. Not sure where it was built either...
...The Heiho is a great little knife; snappy assist and rock solid lockup. It's my second one. :thumbup:
Epic carry today!

Weighs in at 5.25 oz (the handles are milled out on the inside to reduce weight), 3.5 in cutting edge, flips great on bearings.
The blade has taken a great edge and held it perfectly for the past several days...the quality of the blade steel was more than evident while sharpening.
The blade has three different finishes, satin flats, cnc bevels (very slight) and polished edge.
Nice knife
