...already, ordered another one. Not sexy but rock solid. A working tool, not a display piece.

The knife is a wonderful

The knife is a wonderful combination. Hibben design,Elmer input, Loveless input. It was made by Tak Fukuta,Tak Fukuta was the first Japanese member of the American Knife Maker's Guild, and apprentice to Bob Loveless. His factory was in Seki,Japan. He is a well known custom knife maker. This was his first commerciall attempt after returning to Japan,after apprenticing under Loveless. So this is one of the finest knives that were ever made.

Got mine in today. Nice grip.

Got mine in today. Nice grip. Thin in the body. Looks way too buffed out. Hasnt been sharpened ,so i know its mint. I need a pic of the scabbord,front and back,on a ruler so i can make a a scabbard.
I think this is a nice knife. Collectible for what it was. 
The newer Elmer knives were far better.

I'll take one...

... when you go into production. The nylon one isn't bad but not leather.
