America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!
Thats a nice albers, i have one on the way. Itd be my first one, how are they?
My first one as well and doubtful I'll ever land another. It's really nice but the tip is a little proud which is disappointing on a handcrafted knife. I'm curious if any of the others in this batch have a proud tip. Other than that it is just what you might expect from a small batch knife.Thats a nice albers, i have one on the way.

Maybe you could sand/file the kick a little bit to drop it. But yea i could see why thats disappointing. It is a very good looking knife though regardlessMy first one as well and doubtful I'll ever land another.

Out of curiosity, what don’t you like about the stainless? The have found mine to hold a reasonably good edge, even cutting rough corrugated cardboard, and I’ve even poked some holes in emptied spray cans with the tip with no deformation at all.
