First impressions; most impressed with how light it is with Ti bolster & liners
F&F 8+, Pull 4-5 easily pinched open, great walk & talk
Pocket friendly corners (lightly rounded) nice touch
Overall - excellent value, well worth the wait

That looks great! First thing I'll probably do is make a set of silver twill G-10 covers for mine to swap out when I'm not feeling"Staggy" :)

Really love it. Feels absolutely outstanding in the hand and it didn't seem like something I would be afraid to use.

Sure, if you want to nitpick I'm sure I could find some things (daylight in the backspring, transition from bolsters to covers) but for a first run from a company new to the slip joint world it is really great work. I love the steel since it doesn't have to be babied like carbon and it holds an edge forever. Should be perfect for my typical light everyday tasks. This one isn't going anywhere and I look forward to more slippies from Lionsteel.

Nice pictures! Thanks for the Mnandi comparison, it's always nice to get a size comparison against a known.

Hmm, stag, I don't know why I thought they were elk. Can you tell us what the production run size looked like? I'd really like to pick up one of the stag ones when I can scrape up the money if there will be any left by then.

Wow looks incredible. Congratulations.

I got my Santos and CF in they are extremely comfortable to use.
Good factory edge with no burr so I put it to work. A couple hundred feet of cardboard didn't even phase the edge.
If the one existed the CF is it. It's not leaving my pocket.
All I do is Cell pics but I'm sure there will be some better pics coming in.
