Received this from the shop a few weeks ago. This thing is awesome, even with the wait. I can tell you if you even touch something forward of the lugged hilt your gonna bleed. It's long and sleek and the handle is perfect, seems a little longer than usual. I ordered a #2-8" to match. Hopefully it will follow in a few months.
JIMMY, THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL KNIFE!
Love the small fine tooth work on top (I count 37 teeth). The lugged Hilt sets the blade off too. Will be an attention getter around the troops.
