Fixed blades

The following is cross-posted from the Latest Acquisitions thread . . .

Just bought this CRK Backpacker off of The Exchange. Removed the stock lanyard to make the pics more compact.

Been wanting to add a CRK to my collection for awhile but, with only a few exceptions, CRK primarily makes folders with thumb studs & I don't buy folders that only use thumb studs for the opening device anymore.

So bought this Backpacker instead. When I picked up the box, I thought there was nothing in it because it was so light. Put a Tek-Lok clone on the kydex sheath but think it would be better w/a Ulti-Clip because the knife is so light. Would have preferred black micarta scales & may contact CRK to get a pair.

Just added it to my eclectic collection of EDC fixed blades: which (from top to bottom) are the:

1) Cohutta Puukko by Russell Reese -- 3.5" -- 80CRV2
2) Carothers Performance Knives (CPK) -- EDC2 -- 3.3125" -- Delta 3V
3) LionSteel -- M4 -- 3.625" -- M390
4) ZT 0121 -- Strider -- 4.25" -- S30V
5) Chris Reeves Knives (CRK) -- Backpacker -- 4" -- Magnacut
6) ZT 0180 -- Hinderer -- 4.1875" -- Vanadis 4 Extra SuperClean
