Lion Steel "Roundhead" Euro-Barlow

Dang, I totally forgot about the slip! I was a "sure" on the stag I ordered and I don't remember if there was an option or not:(

The "Sure" reservations that picked one up before 3:30PM Central today get a free custom slip made just for these knives. Didn't have enough for every knife, so cut it off at that.

Sweet, the knives look great and looking forward to my stag and CF

Are there still a lot left of each Mike?

So are there any left you might put up and list for purchase then? I missed changing my reserve to a "sure" by a few hours would consider picking up a slip if was specific for this knife.
 
The Santos look incredible, Mike! They look at least as good as the Coco proto. Any chance of a sneek peak of the slip?

I have some micarta, ebony wood and osage all ready to go on some custom covers. TBH i'm more interested in removing the titanium bolsters altogether.

If you use G10 liners, you can epoxy on tip bolsters.

There are plenty of options, and I am waiting to see what comes out of this.

I got my "maybe" email for the stag but looked at them all for putting my order through. Does look like no slip case unless you add it or at least for those who didn't say "Sure". I passed on the slip though not sure how much good a slip would do if it doesn't clip or attach to something in some way.

One of the main bonuses would be to keep keys and coins away from the knife without using a dedicated pocket or standing the knife upright next to your wallet.
 
I thought the CF would be best for the same reason, but I think the abalone is a sleeper. I initially thought of it as the opposite; that abalone, as an uber-traditional and ornate cover material, would not jive with the modern look/construction/materials of this particular barlow. But I actually think it's the best looking of the bunch!

For me 98% of the time the only thing in the pocket my knife would be in is my leather wallet.

The abalone does look fantastic the big put off for me was the price.
 
I just finished looking at the pics on the site :thumbsup: :) couldn't be happier.
The Santos and CF look great.

They all look great. All of a sudden I'm in no hurry to make up new scales.

Yeah, that was the killer for me. I mean, if I had oodles of money, I would have gotten one of each for the complete set, but the abalone being so much more than the others really put it out of reach. Plus the ram's horn and the elk ones look so good...

I know everyone's all about the carbon fiber, which is a nice one, but man, the ram's horn and elk are just fantastic.
 
I initially had some interest in the CF option but after looking at them all it is actually my least favorite it isn't bad but it just didn't wow me as much as the rest of them.
 
Ever since Mike posted these on the website I must have looked at them a hundred times,but just couldn't pull the trigger on one until just before the reservation closed. I'm so glad I got in on a CF model. For me the CF fits the hardware so well. Like all of you I can't wait to see it in my mailbox.
