Now there are four Fallkniven knives.

Blade a little under three inches, convex grind, very sharp. The "thermonun elastomer" handle is harder than kraton. Thin cross-section. The sheath fits tightly, and I suspect that tying a fob through the lanyard hole would make it easier to draw the knife. It's supposed to appeal to women as well as the usual male customers. So far I haven't shown it to a large enough sampling to know whether it does. Seems useful to me.

James, does the WM stand for William Moran ? If so this must be a sanctioned effort then. It certainly looks like a Moran sort of design. I know this is probably a silly question, but I try not to assume too often,

Titan - I haven't seen a printed "MSRP" on the WM yet, and I don't think it's customary for us pushers to post street prices in this section of the forum, but pricing is in the same ballpark as the Spyderco-Moran FB01.

James,

How wide is the blade at the widest point?

Thanks for posting the pix. This is a knife I'm very interested in. The narrower blade and the drop point will make me prefer it over the Spyderco Moran.

Nice (and comfortable) looking handle and blade. This another knife that deserves a kydex sheath treatment from edgeworks.
