Really it’s just a lockback and a solid one at that. This is a robust knife and feels great in hand. I’m not the latest and greatest at writing reviews just being honest. But with that being said I’d be more then happy to answer every and any questions you might have.I've been curious about these... Care to do a small write up? I've had a few slip joint LCs, and I think that pattern is *a perfect user pattern. It's robustness always made me feel like it didn't need to lock, but the fact that this one does seems like it might be a different class of knife.
That'll be a mean tater peelerMy newest addition is one of GEC's kitchen style knives.. they call it a "slicer".... wharncliffe style blade, 3 1/4" cutting edge, and a natural micarta handle with a utilitarian shape.
The tang says K42 SS, the kitchen model 42 with SS blades. I believe they said it was 440C.
It feels perfectly usable in hand... I'm looking forward to putting it to work..
