You do know that the ROF isn't H/C, don't you?![]()

According to Bill Burke the "steels are 15n20 and 1084". These steels both have over .75% carbon content. A minimum of .55% is needed to be considered a high carbon , so this is in fact a High Carbon steel.
Unless you meant High contrast in which case I have no idea what is the standard of measuring appearances...![]()
You ruined my fun!![]()

Ha ha! Serves you right! You always make fun of me...
Seriously though, ROF is the only damascus I will buy that is not a High Contrast...

Nice! Never owned a one piece.
I have always had a slight desire for a Nkonka. I like the brass tips on the guard. Not sure that the tool set is much use but if you wanted to squirrel away some "survival" stuff in the handle that would make more sense to me. I have a philosophy of knives that every knife I have, I use. (Shhhh... Don't tell LW!) Having said that, there are some knives, OK... quite a few knives, that I am very judicious and careful about their use. Like I will occasionally use them to open air envelopes. As in "air" guitar.
How many of you that are into folders have a one piece?

Cajun Blade, didn't know you were into OPK's.
I might have a few for you to take a gander at.
