Sable IV

[Sand Man]

Anybody have one? I'm very interested in this knife. What is the blade thickness?
Does the sheath perform well?

Thanks

Here's a direct scan of the Sable IV in my closet full of knives. I don't know about a Sable V.

Like all CRK fixed blades, rock-solid, but much more resilient than the average rock. High hollow grind and high point (very slightly upswept) for serious slicing. The sheath is a fairly simple pouch, sturdily built.

Thanks James

Great picture. Makes me like the knife all the more. From what I understand Chris Reeve has good customer service also.

Gregory:
The Blade thickness on the Sable IV is 0.197in 5.0mm. If you check the FAQ section of our web site, www.chrisreeve.com, we list the specifications on all of the knives.

Thanks,

Is the hollow grind higher than in e.g. shadow IV?
