I´ve had a lot of knives since the last ~20 years!
There were many production knives and a lot of customs, too.
Many really good names of the scene.
A good choice of the well known US-makers and some of really good european knifemakers ....

But the only blade, that stays by me over a longer period is a knife from Andrew Jordan!
I don´t know why this happens to me?
Because Andy makes the Scout especially for me?
Perhaps this is the answer?! I don´t know!
But my Scout is an awesome user for every situation and it has a lot of power!
I´ve never had a blade like this before!
If you make wood for the fire or if you use it for hunting, kitchen use or everything else!
IT WORKS!!!
Thank you very much, Andy!
You did a great job and I´m proud to know you, my friend! :thumbup:

your knife is cool, no doubt:thumbup::cool:.

But it's your excitement that trips my trigger:D. That's what this stuff is all about, for me anyway- the journey of discovery, falling in love with an inanimate object, building a friendship with someone who can interpret your wishes into something cool like a knife. This forum. These people.
 
I agree that it's always nice to hear from someone who is so excited about their custom. That's a very user friendly style. I love they way that he has textured the handle and glad to see that it gets used. I'm not sure why anyone would want to forge D2 but he obviously knows what he is doing from your glowing responce to it's performance.

Thanks for sharing.
