Fallkniven NL-1 & NL-2?

[K Williams]

Does anyone here own one of the new Fallkniven NL series knives? How do they hold up to outdoor use? Thanks in advance.

I had problems with my NL1 Thor the very first day I used it in the wild, but since I did not send it yet to the factory, I can´t speak any more. Anyway, it is taking me quite a long wile to send it because I am trying to get a digicam to post a few pics, because the damages are quite, quite worth to see...
Hope this helps.

The NL series features laminated steel, so would get pretty badly scratched up if they were put to hard use. Personally I would not want to ruin the appearance of a knife that costly, and would never put it to use. Not my choice though

Thanks for the replies. I just purchased the A1. They have them on sale at Knife Outlet, so I couldn't resist! I'm sure it will be as good as or better than the NL series.
