How do you like that Nessmi Pro? I think Boker did a nice job on them.Böker Nessmi Pro
I'll toss an answer out there as I've got that Nessmi Pro. It's D2. The older Solingen made Nessmi is CPM-S30V.Harry! You're killing me! So beautiful, and what a divine pairing! The sheaths look top notch, as well.
Travman that little Böker is sweet! Does that one have some of the higher end steel that they offer?
No problem with them.
I love it. For such a small fixed blade, it fills my hand well. I do appreciate the large belly on such a small knife. It maximizes the cutting edge. My only nitpick would be that it could use brighter colors. The brown burlap micarta is nice, but it doesn’t really pop.
You just made me crash my ship.Siren song. Working on the sheaths now:

Rehandled my Buck 212 fixed ranger in walnut yesterday .
Used a brass pin, and original guard / spacer parts.
That Nessmi stands out in some pretty exalted company.These have all been carried in various ways. Some in clipped pocket sheaths, some in kydex neck or belt sheathes.
I decided I'd pick up a couple of leather pocket sheathes not too long ago. I was happy to find that I made a smart purchase, that allows me to carry any of these knives in one of two pocket sheathes.
This has become my preferred way to carry a small fixed blade everyday.

When I retire (in 5 years) and we move out of California, I'm only going to pick a state that allows pocket carry of a small fixed blade.
I can't seem to get the Nessmi out of my pocket!
Not looking for a knife law discussion, but some of them make no sense at all.
Not looking for that discussion either, it's just something I've been wanting to do for a while.
It's written in the stars that I pick up one of yours some day soon. Awesome work, Dave!Post #84 was two batches ago. Today I will finish off the second batch since then. A couple EDCs from the batch in between:
