There was a really sweet Mod 95 with BG42 blade steel and carbon fiber
inserts in the ti scales on the exchange recently.
Xiuxiu1313 did a review on the shigorov hati. it does have a very strong detent but that creates a very fast deployment.I'm just curious, do they all have the super strong detent? I've only seen videos of them on youtube and it seems like the only way to open it is to flip it out with what appears to be great force. I personally love slow flippers, and by that I mean ones that you can barely press on the flipper and the blade glides out slowly, but still locks up fully. My Whaleshark does that but it might be a combination of the heavy blade and bearing system.
I LOVE Shirogrov's. I have noticed they have been picking up a lot of traction latley on the forums which I am glad to see.
They're beautiful knives that feel extremely strong and could take a beating no questions asked, but they're just to pretty to do that to um.

HUH? I haven't bought one recently. I bought my Hati about a moth or so ago.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOGrlBUht4E&list=UUTzEtKeJ8RI2zxH-PwENXUw&index=3&feature=plcp
I almost pulled the trigger. Everyone's different though. Seven months might be a deal breaker. But BBQ and other guys I know lover their's. Including smokeater. I have been in love with the design forever though. BBQ Boy with you buying one now.....dang you! I am on the fence still. I heard they might make a smaller version. Like an 85?
My knife selection is mostly Midtech, but these two fight over my attention the most.
