Okay, who has it? Who wants it? Does it REALLY work?

Hey Fish,
I have 2 and my talonite MEUK is in the mail. I like it and it is easy maintenance but I prefer D2 over talonite at this time. Maybe I will change my mind when I work the MEUK hard. I can get the talonite tad pole razor sharp and it stays razor about as long as A8 in my limited testing.

Last year it was INFI, this year talonite. Next year.....?

I have Tom Mayo TNT #17. Since Tom is at Blade Show West I will say it: "Talonite Rulz!"

Hey Fish, you really are quite the troublemaker!

I have come to love Talonite since getting my CUDA Talon. I really need to come up with some money to order a Mayo TNT, or maybe a Ralph Apogee with Talonite blade...hmmmmm.
 
Mine aren't flexible, I suppose you cut have it cut really thin. Good question, though. Talonite should be the best water/dive/fillet knife out there since it won't rust. I have had stainless steel fillet knives that haven't rusted either from me just taking care of them.

Talonite is good but....isn't it somewhat fund just taking care of a knife? You know...qualilty time and all. My kids can pretty much take care of themselves but I sure do enjoy being around helping them.

Talonite is quite flexible. Remember the picture of Rob Simonich holding a piece of stock in a 90 degree U bend? Walt
 
The longer I have it, the more I like it.
