Good day all,

This is my first review. I have received this knife a little while ago and have played with it a bit and thought I should do a quick review. The knife is a ladyfinger from Andy Roy with shadetree burlap scales the sheath is a sharpshooter from ksf.

First of some kitchen work. Dice an onion, did very well for a small knife better than I thought it would for how wide it is compared to my kitchen knives. Next a pepper, same thing as onion. Meat, worked well for the size.

Next up did a little tent peg. The knife worked very well for notching and shaping the point. Was comfy in the hand for all the cuts.

Feather stick used the same wood as the tent peg worked well ( I'm not a great feather stick maker)

Overall this is a great knife for a light daypack or a overnighter will do everything you need, perform great and be a joy to use.

Here are a few more pics the last one I cleaned her up with some flitz.

I hope you liked the review.

I have really enjoyed this knife and have 3 more off Andy's knives on order with a great chance of more to come. (Order yours soon there is a waiting list)

Great stuff, i have been eying that knife for a while. looks like a real user. looking forwards to more user pics.
 
Great pics, Andy makes some very nice knives. I have a KPH on order, but I keep on looking at Ladyfinger.


That Shadetree burlap has tons of grip.:thumbup:
 
Cool ass!! Thats one of the sheaths they sell at Knives Ship Free. Looks great. I may start offering those as an option also.

Thanks so much for the review. Nicely done. I have a Ladyfinger I made for the kitchen recently, and used it today to bone a chicken. Super. Nothing like sharp convex vs meat. Dreamy.
