My first knife from CRK:
Very happy with the knife. Picked it up for $220 shipped and insured.
My first impression was being amazed at how light it felt. I was expecting something much heavier.
My next impression was how perfect it was. We've all bought new toys and upon close inspection seen a flaw or two. The blade is flawless, the coating is perfectly even, the handle and screws fit seamlessly plus the edge is uniform under a 3x magnifying glass. The quality control aspect is certainly evident at CRK.
The edge on the blade is plenty sharp. You need to pay close attention when handling it.
I was worried that the 7" blade would seem too big or top heavy but it balances well. I am glad I got it instead of the 5.5" blade.
I am actually kicking myself for not buying 2 at the price I paid. One to throw in the safe and one to punish.
It is a 2 thumbs up purchase for me.
