Beautiful work, Ken.

This is such a nice knife. I have one in green micarta and it hasn't left my pocket since the day I got it. If money were no object, I would own 2 or 3 of these in different scale materials.

Someone really ought to snatch this up.
 
Me too. i like this the best of your "Shadows". i use my red linerless Shadow all the time; still super sharp, great knife. i'd really like to get this one too, but it's hard to justify 2 of the same pattern from the same maker on a limited budget.
i'm sure whomever comes to their senses first and speaks for this one, will soon know he has a total winner.

Definitely slimmer ! here's the link to original posting, but pic. removed:http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=542918
i don't miss the liners at all. this stuff doesn't need them. i've tourqed while cutting and there's no flex when putting maximum sensible pressure on blade.
i like the knife a lot and am surprised by how strong (and sharp !) it is.
Shit ! i really want to buy THIS knife, but i really have spent way toooo much lately.
