So this took me quite a while...(obviously and this is a little bit of Thread Necromancy, sorry for that).
But sometime last year I finally managed to get a hold of one of these....and MAN is it a beauty.
I was doing a little browsing through my old thread hence I ended up on this one. So here's a couple of pictures I took.
So here's...a LOT of pictures
First off it came in a nice box
With a couple of cards/certificates
Then when you move the foam you're greeted by this wonderful sight.
Take it out of the box and marvel at the amazing mirror polish
The contours of the handle are very nice
And it looks great on both sides
With the sheath it makes a handsome package
The belt loop is removable and clicks into the main sheath with a press button.
She's a pretty big beast...(I cannot call anything with slick curves like this a he.)
Other cool things that you might not have seen.
The sheath is VERY nicely done. Probably the highest quality leather factory sheath that I've seen.
The handle has a tapered tang and the blade also has a distal taper.
The edges of the tang and the spine are nicely rounded.
Is this knife perfect? Offcourse not but few things are. But it IS probably the nicest factory fixed blade package that I've ever seen. And I'm so happy that I finally got a hold of it.
