So is the blade still 3.5?
And what's the steel?
Horizon-C seems to have the same blade length and steel as Horizon-B: 3.75" S35VN.

Would you happen to know the price as well?
Very nice. However there is no chance I'm buying anthing from Reate until they MAKE A FREAKIN' LEFTY!!!
Sorry, rant mode off now. Just getting really frustrating not being able to get one.
$252 is the price I was quoted. Knifecenter also has it for pre order, and BladeHQ and GPKnives will be getting it as well.
I think that's too much considering Horizon-B is only $200 and has that nice milling on the handles.
I was pretty skeptical when all the Reate threads popped up. But all I've heard about reate is good things, and it seems like you guys really take care of your customers. I guess I shouldn't be so quick to judge...
To include extra hardware is pretty sweet. I think making tweaks to the design of the original horizon is a great idea. It's nice to see a knife company listening to their customers.
I put in an order for one! That knife looks absolutely amazing, I just had to have one. Flat grind, blackwash, MRBS...that's a winner. Everyone has said such good things about them, so I hope this thing is as awesome as it looks.
Ps.. How the heck do you pronounce reate? Like ree-eight, ree-ahh-tahh?
Guys, thanks for all your support. We would like to share more information of Horizon-C when the server of bladeforums is fixed.

Great update on the Horizon with this Horizon-C. All the nice touches of the Hills are in there with the addition of the new bearings. Will you be making a M390 & backspacer version to join my Horizon-A?
The will be a new item with M390 later.
