Can't comment on the Unbuffed "Double Black" as I have not seen it. The Buffed is very Black, but not as Black overall as say "Ebonite", Much darker then regular "Black Canvas"

Just picked up my first CPK, an FK2. I am sure this will be the beginning of another long crazy journey, but I am ok with that because I am completely blown away with this knife. It fits my hand perfectly and so far I have zero complaints. This was from earlier today, I had to try it out splitting up some kindling for a fire and whittling a little bit. This knife is going to be perfect for what I need and want out of it. I can only imagine how well it’s going to do at skinning my deer and elk this fall(fingers crossed). And this thing is still shaving sharp. Delta 3V is some serious stuff! Anyways, just another proud owner of an awesome knife by CPK.

Use em or lose em! I’ve moved on from being afraid to use my more expensive knives. They work so much better when you use them!

Very well said brother! Ergos, edge retention & geometry, etc.. all things that have to be experienced to be appreciated. It’s great to see you on board with CPK

I use my CPK’s frequently. I’m terrible about taking pics before, after or during. After I finished chopping down a dead tree with my BC a few weeks ago, I thought “Damn, I should have taken some pics.”

Congrats on the knife, I just received my first CPK last week, an HDFK.
Like you, I couldn’t be more impressed with it. I ended up ordering a Medium Chopper that should be here soon.
I have a feeling we will both be buying more from CPK.
Oh, great pics!

Gotta love the picture ... you're using that beautiful beast of a knife ... and I spy in the background what appears to be a Tonka ... maybe you can contract them to haul your kindling?
