RL, Those are good links. I had knife product manager from Lone Wolf down here yesterday. We had meeting about possibly putting desert cammo on these folding knife handles. Thanks! Bill

Aaah! The sweet small of success! Positive reinforcement. LOL
That picture makes me all emotional, in a knife junky. OSS-lineage kind of way. The ghosts of Colonel Applegate, W.E. Fairbairn, E.A. Sykes, and John Styers are all whispering in my ear "You need that...You need that..."

Perfect Kill shot!!!.... must take....NOW!!
At your age NDD, even a Harsey custom made steel fighting knife won't perform any differently than the rest of your personal "weapons"!!!

And you would know the manner in which my personal weapons function how?
My age is no longer the question, your questioning of a master craftsman's ability is.
Wanna spar?

Hey Saca:
Either that wasn't a kill shot or you missed.

well, well...senIor NDD has counter attacked.
Mr. Harsey-
My post was about NDD's "weapon" not retaining its stiffness due to his old age . I have prescribed him some relief and the gruesome picture you saw before will be no more.
Remember NDD... As I prescribed. Take one hour before onset of your weapon "problem" and then call me 2 minutes later after its all over and report back on success/failure. I realize it may be 6 months to a year before testing for you can occur.

Jawbreaker, Never took offense at anything you said or posted, was just getting clear of the ensuing firefight. Looks like I was correct. Any survivors?

I am trying to photograph all new models of knives as they are made. I got lucky and with some great help figure out how to post one picture here, will try again. Many important jobs on the bench now. Also I have the Oregon Knife Show this weekend, beginning with Chris Reeve coming into town tonight. Also VP of Crucible Steel (they make the CPM S-30V Steel for SF Knives) will be with him too. Any complaints to forward?
