Current SHF collection

The Koi fish is by far my favorite handle, everything from the design to the anodizing to the stonewash handle just gets my motor running! I highly recommend checking one out if y'all get a chance.

The Ronin Shinto - seriously surprised at that one’s performance.. the handle leaves a little to be desired when hacking into wood, makes up for it when cutting through stuff though. I’m not sure what the hrc on their magnucut is.. it’s definitely tough as hell.

*the Shinto was not actually designed to be hacked into wood.. as a defensive tool though, it does slip when slashing cuts are made. The knife has grown on me, especially in magnucut - no chipping like I’ve had on prior Spartan fixed blades in S35VN and similar edge retention

Here are a few of mine. Some I just have not had time to use yet. I do have a couple regular SHF users though.

It certainly is a. Beautiful pattern and their work is top notch....

My one lonely SHF. I had a small PJ one but I gave it to my friend that works at the gas station near my bat cave.

No pics, but I have two Difensas, one in S45V (black with black scales and black nylon sheath), the other in Magnacut (black blade, OD scales, black Kydex sheath).
And a Spartan Harsey Folder.

I thought I really wanted a Pallas, Ronin-Torii, and the Harsey Dagger. Also that I wouldn't like the SHF, but then I handled them in person. I found that I liked the SHF a lot and bought it. The Pallas just didn't do it for me. And the handles of the Torii and Harsey Dagger were too small for my hands. The V42 is also a little small.

I also found that I like the Nemec and I'm really like how their kukhri felt in my hand and it might be my next one.

I'm glad my local dealer is getting a good selection.

My first Large SHF Plain Ti Magnacut.

This Nemec was pretty much the design I was looking for to tuck into my trunks in the summer -- a low printing ti /stainless utility knife that doesn't weigh you down.

Thin but lots of reach and fun to flip. I've been gravitating towards this blade shape lately, long enough to slice an apple but efficient and light.

Build quality is really nice, arrived shaving sharp.

I really appreciate the review, I've been looking at these for a bit are they on washers or bearings?

I love how distressed the black looks. Is it from use or did you do something special to get that appearance?
