Phil Wilson knives - 09/18/21 11:43 AM

Hi, I've heard of them before, great hunting knives due to heat treatment of steel, ergonomics and fine grinding. In the secondary market they are very rare, and Phil himself does not make to order now. I see the discontinued Spiderco South Fork from CPM S90V and the current Chinese version from 8Cr13MoV.

My first one is on the way now, but unfortunately this is a large bowie, not a thin hunting knife. I will add photos when receive, but maybe some of you have these knives?

6000*4000 pixels it seemed redundant to me, photo has been reduced

Good looking knife.
How does the square shaped handle feel in your hand?

Thanks everyone!

Yes, the handle is very comfortable, similar to Randall slab-side handles, if I correctly remember the name of this handle shape

And along the way, one collector helped me, he found out directly from Phil Wilson - this early knife, 10 pieces made in total, steel D2
