Modern Traditionals....;)

That's quite snazzy Sam May have to go have a gander on HH.

HFinn, that Boker Beauty is sure a nice looking blade, but priced way out of my range.
(And, I would say, way out of its own range. No reason a simple, small sheath knife like that, made with run-of-the-mill materials, should cost that much, unless it's a custom.)

I'll pop this one in here too...



It's a front pocket by Gene Wiseman, the frame shape is more modern I my eyes with a well sunken tang. The curved covers are G10 with really crisp lines. He makes a lightweight version without liners too, definitely a candidate.

The blade steel is good old 1095 however

That's a pretty neat looking knife. I reminds me of some kind of scalloped sodbuster that would have a lot of extra grip. The only complaint I have ever had about any soddie I have owned is their grips get mightly slick when wet. That looks like it solved that problem.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year folks!

Just discovered this now: it looks like ER is giving the the well-loved and respected Sardinian pattada folder ("resolza" blade) a very modern interpretation.

At first I felt generally uninterested about "reinventing the wheel" notion especially on a classic, but after about a couple of minutes, I started warming-up to the idea (if nothing else, the added security of the liner lock).

I think this fits here, a modern traditional knife (I hope):

 

[Sonnemann]

I see that K460 is Bohler's version of O1 tool steel (I had to see if it was something like K390, which would be a mega-super-steel especially for a slipjoint.)
Your knife looks great, it really is a modern traditional. No thumbstud or pocket clip, looks kosher to me I like the complex grind on the blade.

The tanto style blade puts it in this thread.

 

[HFinn]

This would be an interesting modern slip joint, Boker W.C.Davis 2. Does anyone have any info of this knife?

 

[eisman]

On that Boker, no; but I've used this W C Davis as one of my main field knives for years, including a trip to Alaska, and have always found it to be an exceptional value. When I first met Mr Davis (at a Blade Show) I was struck by his ability to make a really good, simple, knife at a good price. His patterns owe a lot to Bob Loveless, and you can see that in the folder.

You bet your bippy. (and points if you can ID the source of that one.)

I like the honeycomb on the U1, is it G10 or micarta?
