How Fallkniven and Bear Grylls saved my hike...

[GibsonFan]

I've got an old solid VG10 one.
As all Fallkniven craftmanship and finish are excellent (made in Japan).
Nice full convex blade.
Edge holding: VG10 at 59 HRÇ which means pretty good. Compares to other Fallkniven knives.
Balance is essentially neutraļ a bit forward.

A very nice knife, but as I have often stated, I hate that format: too small for a chopper, too big for small knife job.
But well made.

I hear ya. I already have a Cold Steel Master Hunter (4 5/8" blade) so I'm thinking of the Fallkniven F1, 3 3/4" blade. See if it really is "handier" and check out the steel and craftsmanship. I generally prefer to buy American, but I respect quality wherever it comes from.
I think Fallkniven is one of few who offer convex grinds on their blades, at this price range.
