New Lone Wolf knife

[the rat]

This is my new Lone Wolf Swale that I just got . I like the size and the handle materials. It is not to big nor is it to small, it's just right for EDC.

I believe it's a liner lock and yes it's made by benchmade just under the lone wolf name.

Swale is a great knife if you loctite it. Tends to come loose but a bit of purple loctite fixed that now its great. I say this mostly because you have to take the scales off the adjust the pivot screws. N680 is good stuff and they stonewash it on the Swale very nice.

Thanks for the replies . Yes it's made by benchmade and it's just a liner lock. But I really like how it carries. It's smooth opening and has nice wood scales which I like. Kinda makes it look like a dress tactical folder.

I heard that benchmade will not honor the life time warranty on them so they are a as is knife.

Yea Benchmade bought out Lone Wolf.

I was actually just looking at a Swale yesterday, go figure lol.

There are a few original(LW Trademarks) Lone Wolf blades that I want, before they were purchased by BM.

How do you like the Swale overall???

I wish i still had it's predecessor, the Blackfoot
I've been trying to get one back but can't find it anywhere
I like the stonewashing on the Swale though but the scales aren't very pretty in my eyes.
i guess i will end up with one.

P.s: If someone wants to sell me his Blackfoot just let me know

I really like it so far. The only downside I see is the liner is a little hard to disengage. But other than that it's a great knife.

Recently bought the slightly bigger trask, mainly because I love how gnarly the blade looks but will be trying one of these very soon.

Blade looks like it has a really nice stonewash. I like the handle as well!

I've been carrying one of these for 2 years or so now. It is my favorite of my medium EDC's. I carry a small buck vantage pro with dymondwood handles to work just because of the office, but the second i get home the Swale is in my pocket. This guy has served me in every situation from opening mail to field dressing a stingray when I was spear fishing on an island. It is an awesomely funstional blade, and a great design. The ergos are perfect. Great knife!
