I got the fever.Gary, the stag on your clip point is just marvelous! Like a beautiful woman, bumps in all the right places. I got a Bolus with the drop point blade, and like it very much. Lots of belly for skinning, near perfect walk & talk, with beautiful ram's horn covers and that terrific stainless steel . . . a total winner! It's even ambidextrous, with a long pull on each side of the blade.
Nice trio you have there
Went for a Ebony wood one.

Getting my clip-point in today's mail... My first Lion
Well, it's arrived. My clip-point Bolus in rams horn.
Like stag, ordering rams horn is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. I am kinda so-so on this one.
Not great, but it isn't terrible either.

...All in all, this knife is a winner. The size is about perfect for me, blade and handle. The handle shape is very good in the hand. Mike has created a unique and awesome slipjoint. I plan on EDC-ing it for a while. I hope we continue to see more CK exclusives from Italy.
OH NO!!!I have requested all simple blonde slabs going forward so it's not such a crap shoot
