    I get it from Russia and the US, very little is purchased here, it’s to pricey and limited. Hopefully that will improve.

    So want one.

    Loved the Fox River but handle was too short for me. Looks like BRK listened and put a Gunny handle on a Fox River blade. Genius. Now how do I afford (another)one?

    10mm is the hole size.
    I still have to fill in 5 holes from old buggered sling mounts but would like to try to hide those and I have an old manky 303 stock that might donate some of itself to but I'll have to get a plug drill if I go that way.
    Nice knives by the way. Makes my 25 year old unfinished project from an old file look way way rough lol.

    Nice. Those Lite Hunters come in 2 sizes. I think yours is the smaller one. I've got the slightly bigger one. If you have tried A2 before you will find that this one holds an edge a bit longer. BR pushed the hardness up a point or so to 60 on these.
