The one with the CF scales sure looks beautiful!

Its my first CF handle knife and im very pleased,I always liked the looks of CF as far as coolness factor but never knew how beautiful it looked on a knife.The G10 was my first TK7,the CF was just finished about a month ago.The G10 is not as pretty to look at but has a good grip texture and a bit thinner than the CF so its my user.My wife lost her filet knife and I had to use it to clean a bunch of catfish then used it to cut the carpet in my outbuilding and it will still shave,im now a firm believer in D2 steel.

Very nice score! The TK-7 sure is a "tank".

I...must...get...one...can't hold back....

Use them well, Tom makes one of the finest using knives out there. He has every aspect of a fixed blade nailed.

Nice knives you got there. Tom Krein is my kind of knifemaker. Some of his pieces hit my spot too.

That's a heck of a nice looking knife. What are the specs?

Morpeus · Dec 29, 2004

Overall lengh:9 5/16
Blade Lengh:4 1/8
Steel: D2 @ RC 58
Blade thickness: 3/16 hollow ground

One has G10 handle and the other Carbon fiber and both have Kydex sheaths with Teklok.

They are my favorite all around knives I own.Kind of like the 3 bears story,I have some that are too big and some that are too small but the TK7 is juuuust right.The feel and balance in hand is superb!
