lionSTEEL Limited Edition BestMan - heads up

Thanks for the heads up, Paul. I'd like to take a closer look at these but I can't seem to find them on the website.

DLT is a Bladeforum supporting dealer. Can you provide a link to DLT's page on these?

Thanks.
 
Thanks, Paul Chui Chui

I'm pretty happy with my bolstered 2 blade Best Mans but I've been wondering what a single sheepsfoot variant would look like. Not sure if I'll get one of these or not but they are certainly worth consideration.
 
My Gen 2 Shuffler is still in the box. Very good quality product, but I just can't see collecting a full line of lionsteel with no end of variation in sight. Did that with GEC. But, to each his own.

Now, if they come out with a nice sowbelly or saddle horn.......................

Honest question, how do you define a "traditional" knife? The Lionsteels, especially models like the Best Man and CK Sheepsfoot Jack seemed to me to be traditional designs with modern materials. If there is a thread you can point me to I'd appreciate it.

It has definitely been discussed but I don't have a thread to point you to. I think the end result was it's pretty much a matter of personal opinion.

There's a Sticky at the top of the this sub forum that goes into greater detail but this phrase copied from that Sticky sums it up pretty good as far as the guidelines for this sub forum are concerned.

"If a regular knife user of the mid 1960's would find nothing out of the ordinary about the design, then it's traditional".
