Strider RW-1 Black G-10 Handle
I will say up front that this is an "imperfect" knife in regards to the blade. The handle scales, lock bar, pivot, etc are great. Nothing wrong with them as the pics will show (no scratches, scuffs, or wear). However, when I bought the knife the blade was far from being sharp, especially the "tip edge". And there is nothing that irks me more than a dull knife, so I went about sharpening both edges. It is now alot sharper than it was, but not "razor sharp" since Strider grinds their blades like axes. Also, the blade grind is not perfectly symmetrical, and there is a little wiggle when the knife is closed. But the lock-up is rock solid when open.
So, after all that, if someone is interested let me know, but make sure you look at the many pics....wouldn't want anyone to have buyer's remorse. Will close this thread after a few days if no takers.
