Ryuichi Kawamura Knives

Nor is there a good reason for it to remain so. Use and enjoy, and thanks for showing pics! What a great knife!

 

I have a 3/4 1306 on order now the wait begins!!

 

Just beautiful.

 

It all makes sense now doesn’t it. Congrats on such a fine knife. Carry and use it, you’ll love it even more

 

I have found nothing about it I can nitpick, only admire. The action rivals that of Jess Horn. I have one more 1306 with stag on order for sometime this summer then I'm done for awhile....I'm not an addict...I can stop anytime I want. Lol. Did you see that Pena 1306 that got scooped up here in the exchange yesterday?

 

Very nice I've been trying to decide which pattern will be next, my first is a Lannys clip slip joint which will arrive next week. Pics coming once in it's in hand. After that I'm arguing with myself over the R1306 like this one or a large JH tribute hammer lock , in stag of course as is my Lannys.

 

Thank you, can't wait to see the lanny's. When you say hammer lock do you mean the gunstock with the tail lock? Those look amazing. Can't go wrong with a 1306 though. I'm considering ordering one of his 1306 in the 4" size. The 3/4 size is a tad small for me.

 

I'm a fan of 4+" knives and several of his patterns meet or exceed that.
I hope he doesn't mind me using cropped pictures. He offers a large Jess Horn Tribute with a hammer lock. The example I like is under the 2017 knives tab on his website. The gunstock with tail lock doesn't qualify for my 2nd pick.
Hammer lock

Tail lock

 

O'yea thats pretty darn nice as well. decisions, decisions!! That must be your Lanny's on his new knife section. Congrats that's a beauty!

 

I haven't looked at his new knife tab but here's the pictures he sent. His photography skills are not aligned with his knife making skills but that's good judging by in hand pictures previously posted so I'm having trouble sleeping lately

 

Yea his photos didn't do mine justice. I would say you hit the jackpot on that one. What a beauty

 

Thanks, I'm anxiously awaiting it's arrival !

 

Carrying this 1306 lockback today, one of the finest folders I own

 

Dang David! Love it

 

O'Man...that thing is beautiful!!

 

Thank you gents, all the other gorgeous knives on this thread compelled me put that Ryu in my pocket today. Love seeing what shows up on this thread!

 

Beautiful.

Expect your knife to not be as dark or as amber when it arrives as his pictures show. It looks like he uses a very warm low K light to provide light for his photos.

 

Arrived today. He told me he would make my favorite knife, goal accomplished

 

Absolutely beautiful!! And sure enough that stag is out of this world compared to the pictures. Nice job scoring that one

 

Gorgeous!!!!
