Traditional and Modern pairings

These two knives are sharing a lot of pocket time lately.
My Lambsfoot has been a mainstay for years now, it's just so good.
But I'm blown away by the Fox Recoil Gunstock, it has really won me over.
The blade is downright sexy with its shape, nice swedge, radiuses spine, and the width of it is so nice... they packed a lot of blade in there.
Other things I love about it are the hidden tang when closed, and the action is sweet... it's become my favorite fidget toy.
It has a soft pull to half stop, maybe a soft #4. But the pull from half stop to open is strong with a loud snap, maybe a strong #5.
Closing is just as fun, it snaps back to half stop and does the waggle, then closing is softer and quieter but still has a solid snap... kinda like a soft close drawer.
I haven't been much of a fan of the Modern-ized Traditionals, I've sold all the ones I've tried, and still don't believe they are traditional enough for the main forum, but I'll keep posting it here because I believe this one isn't going anywhere... I like it that much.
