    So I thought I’d do a quick $10 review on a knife that has arrived this afternoon all the way from sunny NZ from forum member Nga.

    First impressions are way better than I figured via the pictures received.
    The knife handle is super with a skinny handle (was asked) and good feel, feels safe in the hand.
    The blade looks to be very well finished and for a manual job it looks very tidy. The D2 steel has a real shine and this one holds a bloody impressive edge, is hollow ground and is thin 3mm which makes for imo a suitable tool for the field, dressing and skinning animals.

    Heading out tomorrow (with knife) so another $5 review to follow along with some pics of a real stag...

    Great job Nga

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Is there a name for that finish on the heel/spine of the knife, always really liked that look.

    I just beat the shit out of it mate, it deforms the Damascus and creates the pattern otherwise the lines would be straight and boring.

    I would like to know which website you are getting your wood and steel from, does not seem to be the gameco/artisan one I use...
