How do you like that LeafStorm, JD? As a big fan of things Wilkins, I've always been fascinated with that knife. It's quite small compared to my usual carries, though I've lately been getting into and using more of my diminutive blades. The LeafStorm somehow reminds me of my HalfTrack, do you find any similarity there? I got a notification for your YouTube vid on your Wilkins knife, but being up here in our Vermont woods I won't bother trying to watch 'til we return to the land of viable broadband internet.

Your LeafStorm also evokes both my all-Wilkins disguised former 551...

...and most especially my 550 with almost identical to your flamed-Ti grips, though obviously larger, the conversion of which I made last time we were up North last fall.

Back on topic, I forced myself to set my Spartans aside this morning despite the obvious aptness of another S-day carry and made this a Skinny Slicer Sunday instead. I tried to balance my knife on one of the old sashes on the shed here, but it tumbled into the snow as I tried to position it to avoid my hideous reflection in the window pane. I settled for these pics on the old, peeling shed door instead and drove the moisture out of the pivot bearings with a hair dryer when back indoors. A couple drops of oil wouldn't hurt either.

I bet the action on these knives are steller. They look amazing!
