Show your newest knife

I'm not sure if "newest knife" and "latest acquisition" mean the same thing or not, but I am pleased for this opportunity to post these again. The Crooked River is technically my "newest" knife as they were just debuted this year and just released in the past month or so.

The (USA Made) Schrade LB7 Uncle Henry Bear-Paw and the Benchmade 610 Rukus are my latest acquisitions, so they are "MY" newest but not "THE" newest...because they were manufactured and discontinued well before most of the other knives in my collection became available.

If it's me who you are asking, it's a great knife. At least that's what I think after just two days of EDC (but experience with many Spydies on the back).
Completely lightweight, smooth and cuts way above it's size. The hawkbill excels at what I bought it for, catching and trapping while cutting (awesome for roots, ropes, twigs, etc., and a true asset in gardening chores) plus being almost maintenance free due to the lack of liners and H1 steel.

Opens bags with astounding ease, too. And clips just right to any pocket.
Only thing I don't like of it for now is how wide is it in the pocket due to the claw shape. Takes quite a bit of space for the blade length.
Otherwise is an awesome buy, especially if you haven't tried a hawkbill or H1 steel before!
 
Spyderco Domino bought from our own Mtneer. Such a cool knife. No real use yet but everything about this knife just feels right.

I love this knife so much...52100, 4.5" cutting edge, 9 3/8" OAL...it's perfectly balanced, lean & longer than it looks in the pics...the scales are beautiful & perfectly contoured...Fit & Finish is top notch, Tapered Tang is about 0.7mm at thinnest, and the hamon is easily visible even though it's a hand-rubbed finish - blade shape is more flowing than it appears in the pics as well - this is my new #1 favorite in my entire collection, but I've got one coming that may knock it off.

I just got this one in the mail yesterday and unlike most knives I can't find a flaw.
Great design and execution from Freeman Outdoor Gear.

How is the detent on the freeman? If you shake it does the blade stay in place?
