    very impressed and edge retention is still great after field dressing. VG-10 steel
    Cool knives. I have the smaller Delica in VG-10 and it's good. I also got a Stretch in ZDP-189. Carry one or the other every day.

    This awesome wee knife was a gift from a friend. He made this knife specially for me.

    You shouldn't have become distracted by that new shed. I think that you can claim little more than part ownership now.

    After quite a wait my Strider SMF NSN model has arrived! Quickly opened with the Boker kwaiken as soon as I got home.

    The Striders are pricey but solid as hell and many different steel options. This one's a full flat grind S30V blade. The collection is about to start growing.

    Anyone else here heard of or own any Striders?

    I know of the Striders, but have not handled one personally, similar quality to the Hinderer, zero tolerance type of heavy duty folder I understand, well done.

    Had Hamish (HGD Designs) make me a sweet new sheath for my Svord. Ties in better with my hunting belt now.

    I have always fancied a Griptillian.
