One of my favorites, I still kick myself for not getting one when they first come out.
I got a Starmate instead, I'm glad I did, but I should have got an AFCK too.
That is a Swamp Rat Ratmandu, it should be right up everyone's alley because its just that good.
Getting a Martin's custom is definately on my grail list now. On the top of it.
Ulf Newt Martin does a first rate job, especially with hollow handles that you can use and use hard. So does Sam Wilson.
Here's a pic of my other martins, I've used them all and they are very well made.
