Order placed for Seal 2001

AO, you are going to make us poor, Mick and Duanne ought to pay you cause when ever I see pics, I go over the knife list and find one I want. :D Thanks for the pics.
 
I just received the Seal 01. Man.. no words can describe it. I am serious about this. Put it this way. It weights about a pound. Knife seems to come alive when held. As though it were an extention of the arm. One intimidating knife.

SideWinder,

Thanks, man. I feel like chopping down the abandoned house across the street with it. It is of the new flat grind. Looks like the tip won't fail for anything.

ps:

Some pics tonight;)
 
I called up and they had a few around. Can you believe that!

That's how it happened. The Strider Rep had to deal with my ignorance of Strider knives as he answered my questions. All I had to go on was a Strider article I saw that previous summer. BUT the Striderguys were extremely helpful at a time when I know they were swamped (Sep 01) with making blades.

Once I held the S-2001 it was over - any doubts were gone about my investment. Now I want another two but haven't decided on them yet.

When I joked about the "Bean Test" on an earlier post I pictured WWII and Korean vets opening cans of rations with their field blades. Especially the cold battles were they would heat up the chow on the engines - I've still seen that done with the new MRE's before they came out with the water activated heaters.

With the mass on the forward edge of the S-2001 I imagine it would destroy a can of peaches or meat but the d*mn thing would be open! I don't know where that capability would fall on the BUSHCRAPPER100 index...
