not slipjoint traditional like is normally seen around here, but pretty traditional anyways...

WoodJewel 10cm carver. i think this is my favorite knife...:thumbup:

used it last weekend for a couple of nights of camping, it held up well to some medium use. light batonning, lots of cutting both dry and green hardwoods. held its edge well. :thumbup:

i find that for cutting hardwood a harder simple carbon steel works well. it doesn't need to be wear resistent, but it needs to be stable (to avoid rolling and dulling) so a hard edge with a fine grain works well.
 
That knife looks very familiar;). Nice to see it is getting some good use.
 
I'm a big fan of Scandinavian blades and have several. That's a nice one there. :thumbup:
