Wow, much to my surprise my HR showed up at the office yesterday afternoon. Everyone waited as I opened up the box as they are interested in what this beast looks like.
Very impressive! What a knife!!! Thanks Eric! :thumbup:
FWIW - I'm in an occupation which has access to many production knives at wholesale costs . . . with that being said - I can basically order just about any production or semi production knife at wholesale cost.
So, this is probably begging the question . . . .why would I pay full tilt retail for a SRKW HR when I can order a number of other top name brands for substantially less?
Well . . . the answer to that question is this . . ."If I have to explain you wouldn't understand." It is easy to see why SRKW has such a huge following!
My son is a big advocate of a couple of other brands - he was sorta "ah, it is no different than the others" when I placed the order and consulted with him about my purchase. Well, I couldn't get the HR out of his paws most of the evening and now is hinting he would like to have one for Christmas - go figure!
I took it out last night for an outing with my son and gave it a good workout. I will spend the rest of the week working with this knife showing it no mercy. . . but it is definately a "keeper!" It is attached to my BOB right now and will stay until the Camp Tramp replaces it.
Photos and more comments to follow in an additional post. Thanks guys for the help and advise!
