Sorry I wasn't able to reply sooner, but the other gentlemen were correct.

In my original picture, the left is a Survive EDC4 in Magnacut, the full flat ground model, and the center and right one are both versions of the TRC South Pole. The orange one is a limited edition and the satin one was a standard offering in Elmax.

Here they are next to some other favorites for size comparison.

Feel free to reach out via PM if you want to know anything further on them :)

Thank you so much for the reply brother! That is a great looking set of blades you have there! :):thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Look what I "retrieved" from the mail today...

Last two pics show how nice and relatively thin it is. I'll put calipers on it later but I'm guessing it's around .025 behind the edge, nice! The last pic is zoomed in pretty good so the tip is still pretty thin yet robust enough that I'm not scared to stab it into things with some force.

The satin finish seems slightly less finely finished then on other Busses I have but I have this thing in bright sunlight so I'll need to evaluate it side by side with those when I get home.

Overall, I'm very happy! Can't wait to put it on the sharpening bench this weekend and put my own edge on it. Will share beauty shots once that's done.

Great work Jerry, Dan, and the crew! And thanks so much for the choil options! Super stoked about that!

I love this design. I’d love it even more if the plunge line on the No choil option was brought back to match the angle of the front and rear of the handle. That would give more usable blade and you wouldn’t have a big ricasso area

Apologies for the crude drawing. It’s not even 5am and I haven’t finished my first cup of coffee yet. ☕
