I agree! Hopefully some of our Blade Forum members will score one at Blade Show so they can add them to the thread.There needs to be more trench knives in this thread.

Finally joined the LG club. I had very high expectations and this was one of the very few times they were exceeded. Hype is well deserved!

Very nice and congrats! I love the Damascus pattern and I think the sweep scales work better on the MK3 than most other knives due to the scale shape and contouring. Is that a score from Blade Show?

Agreed, the sweep pattern matches the handle lines very well

Yeah picked it up today at the show. Wasn’t planning on getting one in Damascus but all the regular versions were already sold out. Picked up a shirt as well. DLT trading had 2 really cool versions of the mk3 in full dlc and dlc with an fde blade but I didn’t see them till after I bought mine.

I gotta say I’m very impressed with it and you were right about how smooth they are. I don’t know what kind of magic he puts on those washers but it’s insane! Also got to chat with the man himself for a bit. Really cool experience!I knew you would dig LG! Welcome to the LG Brotherhood! You will have to occasionally pledge fealty to King LG asmitchnola requires.

That's a really sweet version of the mk3. I have a vecp frame lock tanto with the sweep scales that I really like. Maybe one day I'll be able to snag a mk3 with that pattern. I already own three different versions so need a few more 
. Honestly I think the mk3 may be my favorite of all the LG's, it's at least at the top! Congratulations on your purchase now you see why he has such a following!

Just got the Protech Rockeye in 3V and I'm REALLY enjoying it.
Their smoky grey blade color gives a "blued" effect at the right angle. Can't wait to start using it hard.

That he did. Les is always a class act, and was my first stop this year.

I was hoping to get a damascus talos but he didn’t have any. I ended up getting a morph Talos for a good buddy and fellow Les head.

I posted my haul in the BLADE thread, I'll definitely get more pics of my collection when I can. I was like, the fifth guy at Les' table Friday morning Early Bird so I had my pick of the MK3s, which is what I was there to snag.
