Jeff Freeman, formerly of a legendary cutlery company in Portland, has started his own sharp pointy company. The Spartan boys, Harsey, Chris Reeve, Ken Onion, yada yada... know Jeff, and have seen his stuff, I got the first 'across the table' sale for his first solo design at the OKCA show - he's got orders, but the rest of them are going to the laser engraver to get 'Freemanized'. Mine gto all scratched up with his initials and the date of the sale, and is conspicuous because it does not have the Freeman Eagle (told him he needs to have his upcoming website play Freebird) engraved on it. (he's got more, but I actually bought a T-shirt for an ungodly price and he let me look through the 'scratch and dent pile' for a knife he'd throw in after scratching it up some more...)
the knife is a medium sized, medium - almost heavy duty drop point camp/field utility knife. Blade length ~ 4.25", blade height ~1.125" handle is G-10 and about 6" long. Well designed, doesn't slip, comes with a kydex sheath, lanyard, and can be changed out from a kydex belt loop to the blade-tech QR's or Molle with their new molle attachers ... once I take pics i'll post them, and once I get a chance to try breaking it i'll write the review.

Man, you get all the cool autographs.
Congrats on the knife. What kind of steel and hardness is it? Approximate spine thickness? Looking forward to the review.(and pics  )
