Finally, finally it is mine!
Simple frontier pattern (?) knife that has always appealed me. No jewelry, but the simplistic beauty! Unfortunately I haven't gotten the change to test this yet as I just got it.
Sharpness out of the box is allright, slices paper. Small imperfections in the blade can be seen such as very minor dents, but nothing that littlebit of sandpaper and mousepad can't handle. Can't really complain since this is such affordable knife!
Sheath is open ended and is very well made! Retention is good sofar, but we'll see how it works after loosening.
Swiveling beltloop
Nicely beefy leather is used! :thumbup:
Handle looks quite blocky, but is actually very very comfortable. Rounded nicely! :thumbup: Spine and exposed tang is not coated, just the sides of the blade
Size was just a bit smaller than I thought..
Size comparison with Fällkniven F1 and Mora Clipper
Thickness comparison with F1
All in all very satisfied with this one, should make me a happy camper when I get the change camp next time! This screams of uncoating and patina, but I'll keep it like this for a while atleast.
I reckon this also would make great camp citchen knife due the blade shape.
