Review: Larry Davidson SE-Integral Folder

[Stumpy]

I just recieved my intergral from Larry and I have to say I'm very pleased.It has a 3.5" lg. 440v blade which was hair popping sharp out of the pouch.The blade is a recurve style with a very nice satin finish and excellent grind lines.Silky smooth action with a rock solid lock that snaps into place.The handle has a really nice contour to it that fits my hand very well and flows nicely with the blade design.The handle also is anodized a gold,bronze color with 2 black textured G-10 inlays that really make the knife look sharp.The pocket clip is set up for tip up carry that lets the knife ride real low in the pocket.On top of all that Larry was a pleasure to deal with. I had a chance to talk with Larry on the phone a few times he answered all my questions and seemed really down to earth.

Larry--That looks like one bullet-proof folder with elegant, eye-catching lines and very good steel--the complete package. Do you offer other blade materials such as 420V (S90V) or Stellite 6K? Can you give us an idea of your steel heat treat--who does it, what is the HRC range of your blades, and whether you use cryo for stress relief or in the heat treat process itself?

Congratulations, Stumpy!

Thanks--Will
