FK2

[Daverous]

I couldn't get that Westinghouse out of my head. It made me give up the burlap on my user. Really cool stuff! Thanks for the neat scale addition!

Just for fun I did a fast and dirty check of available-online Westinghouse electrical service documentation from the mid-60s and I saw micarta mentioned four times as a preferred insulating material in Westinghouse breakers and *melamine mentioned once as an outer material in a large fuse. If you can get me a serial number or some sort of ID on the switchgear, I will write the archivist at the Westinghouse Collection at the Heinz History Center and see if I can get the documentation for the unit to determine the identity of the Westinghouse material.

Finally got around to putting on my burlap scales! Much more of a chore then expected Really like that extra bit of grip provided. Daverous belt loop look familiar?

Wow they look great. You did a good job of capturing them in the sunlight.

Great pictures guys! I need to get some new pictures of my FK2. Ive been using and beating the snot out of it this summer, and it’s dirty as hell. Haven’t even sharpened it since last winter. Great knife!

I agree!...what a great design; what a great knife. It has quickly become my favorite EDC, and since I work from home it's on my belt every day. I have an HDFK, a UF, and the FK2--with a DEK1 on pre-order. I am a fortunate man to live in a time when knives like these are within my reach. Thanks CPK!

Westinghouse vs African black wood just cause? I have 5 fk2 right now and couldn't be persuaded to give up one. Only version I didn't end up with was the HT with a swedge. Kicking myself....

FK2 arrived in Ireland today this Covid messed it around for a bit with shipping but a big thanks to Jo for staying with it.
Really appreciate all your help

It is a Sagewood. I’ll get a pic for you when I get home.

It’s identical to my HDFK sheath in other pics, just scaled down. Perhaps you’ve happen to see those pics along the way.

Sorry about the delay brother. Life hits hard when it hits. No coating at all. I'm pretty sure the cpk crew fully buffed and coated the African blackwood prior to me touching it. Both still look great. Granted I've been a bit out of the mix this year.
