My first custom knife as well as my first damascus blade.
Jim Harrison *Seamus* Author folding knife.
It is a small knife but I'm more of a small folder type anyway. I carry larger knives but the small Sebenza 21 always seems to be carried because I like it and also because it carries well.
Author "Seamus" knife
Pros:
I like the look. Stainless Mike Norris Snakeskin Pattern Damascus looks awesome and so does the clip. I'm normally not a fan of drilled out designs but I like this one.
No blade play.
Centered blade.
Smooth opening. Uses IKBS bearing system.
Cons:
Smaller drilled holes are not smoothed flush with handles.
Edge could be sharper. Needs a higher edge bevel imo. I want more of a point than it has.
Neutral:
Early lockup... I'm not a fan of early lockup because I've made some of them fail because of this.
