Quite a few Gentlemen hereabouts..............

Yes, this is true. Which is why I've stuck around for going on 28 years. It ain't perfect, but it's damned good.

(Although there are always a few who need their comeuppance. Keeps things spicy. )

Thanks for the kind words, BP!
However, your collection, what we've seen of it, Is more than quite admirable!

Update: Pleased to report that I received an email from Curtiss Knives this morning saying my knife is being shipped back home. I’ll post when it arrives.

 

[BP Green]

Side note, this should be a pretty darn good week! I’ve got a Hawk Talon and a Demko AD 20.5 scheduled for delivery on Thursday as well. Feeling like a kid before Christmas. . .

 

[BP Green]

Can it get any better?! Just got off the phone with Penny from CRK warranty dept. She’s sending back my Sebbey with a new blade and glass blasted finish all courtesy of CRK. Great service!!

 

[Whisperstealth]

Christmas in March!

Good for you, glad you are getting a good outcome from this!

 

[BP Green]

Happy to report my two little wayward sheep have both made it home at the same time. The Seb looks great with a brand new glass blasted finish and blade.

The F3 is sporting what looks like the same pocket clip as before except now there isn’t a sizable gap between the clip and scales. Time will tell if it holds up or not. I’ll report if there are any more issues.

Color me a happy man today. . .

I guess I’m about to experience for myself that storied Curtiss warranty service I’ve heard so much about. . .

oooooooohhhhh
Sorry that happened !
Classic " stress riser " .

Yeah I had a surprise last winter . I was gently , in small increments , six or seven very gradually increasing tries at adjusting a pocket clip , while on the knife and clamped across the screw heads , . . .
. . . then SNAP !
Pocket clip flies across the room . Did not break at a screw ; broke at the bend .
Different heat treat on that one or maybe an inclusion in the metal . I had been adjusting pocket clips on another reputable / high quality brand for more than a decade with flawless results .
Got another clip and adjusted that one .

 

[Whisperstealth]

Awesomeness!! Good deal! Been a good blade week for you!

 

[BP Green]

It sure has!

 

[Whisperstealth]

That bottom one looks ferocious!

Lol, it does doesn’t it? Hawk Talon. Amazing design/fit/finish. I haven’t been able to put it down since it arrived. Smoothest action of any knife I’ve ever come across. The one folder I’d keep of my entire collection if you told me I could only have one.

 

[SACBALLZ]

It sure has!

Beautiful pieces all around. One of these days I need to go to a knife show and see about holding a Talon, everyone speaks so highly about them I would like to experience one.

Curtiss too, I really enjoy their designs and the prices are very reasonable. Love the handle texture on that one
