Thread veer and return all over the place, and almost as many compliments on the packaging that Dan Koster (pendentive) designed for it as on the blade design and utility itself. I think it was the first Nepal manufactured knife sent out. Not sure.

(During the pass-around, two H.I. Forum members were in ...er...Singapore? ...at the same time. Go figgur the odds on that one.)

Hey, I remember that! Got to handle the knife for a while. Something came up and I ended up with it for longer then normal. :foot: I had fun. My mom's old land lord liked the knife too. Thanks for reminding us that fun time.

Great design! I ended up with two 12" standard pens, two 12" villagers (razors), a 15" standard and a 15" villager. Never did get an 18" as I was convinced they were very similar to a WWII. I hope to get one someday.

I still have the 12 inch Pen that Sarge used in Afganistan. Rusted in Nepal, polished by Afgani dust at some road-side. :)
 
That was a good passaround. I remember that hike - taking it up on a hill that overlooked my whole town. Never did get one, and can't figure out why....maybe something I need to fix soon?
