Received my Fowler today:
#104 2 3/4" O1 tool steel black oxide finish
giraffe bone handles, micarte pins, nickel silver lanyard hole liner.
The knife is beautiful, very nicely finished and expertly ground. An excellent edge from Ricky.
Preformed a few tests, rope cutting, paper cutting and I prepared my supper with it, cutting an onion, suasage and cheese.
Even with these limited tests I think the steel will be excellent in edge holding.
This is a small knife intended for every day carry.
The sheath is very nicely done, pouch type, heavy grain leather.
The black oxide coating is a little "sticky" when cutting paper but I believe this will wear nicely.
I will post again after some quality time with it.
Regards,
Abraham
