Interesting but M390, CTS-204P and 20CV are nearly identical. More U.S. material in a U.S. made knife.

Just handled the 0392 at Recon 1 today. They got 1 in and called me to give me shot at it if I wanted it. Sweet Knife! I put it on hold for myself, & plan to pick it up next week. I would have taken it today if I wasn't there to pick up my new 0562CF and a Spyderco Bradley Bowie already. Can't wait to get my hands on it again.

What was the price? Oh and did they have any Shiros in stock?

How do you like the S90V Bradley Bowie?

Painful. And, yes they had 7 Shiros....all were sweet...I want at least 3 of them.

S90V?? It's PSF27 actually. For the few hours I've owned it I think it's a great knife.....so far. The handle feels fantastic in my hand and the balance is great. I haven't had a chance to put an edge on it or use it yet though. I'll know more after I put an edge on it and put it through some work for a month or so. I have high expectations for any knife with Gayle Bradley stamped on it.

Apologies on the typo. Somehow I had been thinking of the of the Phil Wilson S90V Spydercos. The tool steel PSF27 is very interesting. No experience. Interested in knowing your experience.

The PSF27 is steel I have never owned either. As well, since I have a rather elevated opinion of Gayle Bradley and his folders, and M4 is what I consider the perfect folder blade steel, I am very interested in how this blade performs. I look forward to testing it out and gaining some experience with this steel.
