Took my TTSK out today for it's first test run !
Here is a pic of it compared to a SAK ( and a Jack Russell ! ).....
When I drew up the design it was guess work as to how the handle would feel, it turned out every bit as good as I had hoped and is by far the most comfy and versatile handle on any of my knives !
Your hand locks in rock soild in whatever grip you use........
When you need to fine tune that notch in your fig 4 trap or fluff up that bark ready to take a spark from your ferro rod, this blade makes using a pinch grip a breeze !
The edge it came with shaved hair and cleanly sliced post-it's but for me cutting wood is always the real test and this made easy work of this task also and was a pleasure to use !
With John's great heat treat there were no worries when battoning it through this Fatwood !
Incase your wondering what the pooches were doing while I was putting the knife through it's paces, they were occupying themselves !!!
The sheath that John had made was a rugged no nonsense affair that was in it for the long haul just like the knife and rode at a perfect height for me !
Incase you can't tell this is my new favourite knife and I'll do a comparison test with my other customs when I'm next on days off work....yeah course I work !!!!
