The Les George Knives Thread

great addition. congrats on getting one.....
Thanks JB. The scales are more matte than the other morphs I own. Nice change and blends in nicely with the blade.
I’m

sweet shot. How do you like it? How does the action compare to a strider/CRK?
I’ve never owned a Strider. Have a few CRK- both CRK and LG have a great glassy feel when opened in a controlled manner. The CRK sounds glassier but you can also hear it on a slow opening LG. The main difference to me is LG can readily be flicked open and it’s really smooth. I love the action on both. Some of the gents here have much more experience with LG, heck some here likely own LG stock. All I can say is snag one.

Ye at first glance it does look more mate than the other morphs, i just compared my Talos morph to VCEP morph it looks the same. Maybe Les did this batch more mate.
 
Just saw D7 teasing the new Alpha designed by Tom Krein. I’ve been eyeballing the alpha for a while now. I really like the design. Looks to be an excellent edc but the prices have kept me at bay.

Excited to try the D7 version as it looks to be very close in design too it’s stepdaddy. Hoping it’s a button lock but may grab one regardless just to try it out.

And of course some gratuitous knife porn from the Ozarks!!

Not sure if I have the right model, but that Krein reminds me of something from Dozier back some years ago.

I keep forgetting to look into dozier (going to now). I like the size and the handle looks comfy considering the size. I don’t particularly love the blade shape. I prefer his clip points and tanto.

I have a couple Dozier customs and love them dearly, though that said, they are (like many things) very much a product of their time.
