I have bought and sold many knives over the last few years. To me, at the end of the day, nothing beats a Sebenza 21. I think this one goes well with the GEC Missouri Trader 42 with stainless.

Strictly academic question here...so the Bradshaw which looks more traditional is the modern because of the thumb stud while the more modern-looking Lake is the traditional because it lacks a thumb stud and/or modern locking system? Lovely knives nonetheless!!

The Sawby lock is not a spin off of the lock back. It's another sort of animal. The knife isn't a slip joint either. So that and the thumb stud kind of funnel it here.
The Lake collab is a tail lock, which is a variation of a lock back, at least in my mind. It's a slip joint also. The inset stag and integral construction are a bit on the modern side, but still fall within the Traditional definition.
Thanks, they are nice knives.

Great picture arrowhd !
I have a few questions: Which knife is beside the victorinox? Is there a carry clip on the other side? Micarta handles, right?

Interesting to see! I only know the kapara version of his collabo with spyderco. Did he use cf for this handle too? Some kind of carbon steel blade? Looks like a nice patina.

Thanks! Real Steel Gslip. Modern traditional slip joint with a wire clip and micarta scales.
