At my request, my neighbor helped me take out a large limb (his tree) overhanging my yard. I said I'd take the wood for camping, so the SFNO LE saw some clean-up duty. It's a good chopper for its size. Nothing like a Mistress, but the saber grind does give it some heft and momentum.

It's balsa. He's got flabby arms. That's why it took two cuts.

(Nice accuracy on cut #2 - going into the same opening. I'd have stabbed my foot or impaled the cat. I suck at chopping.)
 
Beautiful blade! I just ordered one similar to that one. It's #284/300.
Are all SFNO LE's with the with the tiger hide handles and "###/300" saber grinds? I'm not so sure I can get myself to use it yet. I have an ASH-1 and just ordered a SARsquatch. So, I'll have my bases covered with the SFNO size blades.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

Nice pic & vidclip, Guyon! I'm hoping to take mine out this weekend with the TT Killa Z for some action. :D
 
I don't know if I can use mine... May buy a standard model to beat and keep the LE as a collector piece.

Oddly enough, you may find it difficult to find a 'standard' SFNO for any less money than that LE you just scored.
 
I would like to get mine out sometime but I am still waiting on the Leatherman sheath for it.
 
Thanks,

For the longest time these suckers never came up. Now, I see all these SNFO LE's for sale. I may pick up another SFNO LE and use it as a user. However, I tried my SARsquatch for the first time today and think that will serve as my user for now. Is there much more a SFNO can do that at SAR squatch cannot. I guess the SFNO LE's just look better doing it.
 
Always good to see INFI in use! :cool:

I'll second the "nice aim"... looks like one clean chop in the end.

Thanks for sharing. :thumbup:
