I believe the last 4.7 thread is dead and I started this one in hopes to resurrect the original 4.7 post.
I was lucky enough to get a pre-production sample Cru Forge V and so far it's my new favorite knife. In general I am not a fan of coated blades but this one doesn't seem to drag. Guy has done a great job re contouring the handles, they are even better than the new 5.1. But I've been accused of being a "fan boy" so I'd love to hear people's comments, reviews and opinions of this new knife and design. Come one come all, be positive, neutral or negative but let's keep the discussion about the knife. If you have any issues about other things please start a new thread.
From another thread but here's how it looks compared to some other S!Ks
I know I know, pics or it didn't happen, but man it feels good to have a 4.7 in hand again.
I dare say I like the size better than the 5.1,,, will post pics later but for now it's in my console as my truck knife
So I handled a 4.7 in grogs passaround,, then saw one come up at a smoking price and couldn't pass it up
Thanks! It was literally a blast because I think we went thru over 800 rds. Tough to beat the desert sunsets too.
that's a great time w/ desert sunsets. thank you for sharing it . i miss those. the best i did lately was take this outside for the first time since finishing to get some pics.

Was in the Mojave desert out in Nevada from last Thursday to this Tuesday for a four day Frontsight course. We camped outside the facility and brought a few knives. I brought my 4.1 in D3V, 4.7 in 20cv, and a CPK EDC in D3V. After a 12 hour drive there and 9 hours of firearms training each day it was nice to setup a fire and watch the sunrise and sunset.
I posted a personal message on your profile. You can look up the courses they offer on Frontsight's webpage and disregard the prices for each individual class. I would buy a membership for $50-$300 that offers lifetime classes at their facility. It's ultimately that cost plus a $50 background check and you can attend any of their classes. Some guy on eBay is selling them for $45 for the Diamond Memberships. Honestly, even if you only use it once it pays for itself because the classes are top notch. We did the 4 day Defensive Handgun course and it was very organized and well run with some of the best instructors I've seen in the 20 years I've been training. Personally, I bought the Commander membership which offers 40% off all gear, 10% off ammo, purchase guns at cost, and unlimited classes for life. You can stay right outside the facility whether it be camping or trailer or stay in the town of Pahrump, NV at the Saddle West hotel for $55 a night.
