Tony,I reckon 3things so far1)As with folders it seems cost is no great guide to value. I already had a carbon Mora,and the CS FinnBear,neither one quite tickled the right spot,but as much as I fancy the Condors and Martiinis the cheaper knives seem to be the real deal.Plus if you smurf one up,it not a great loss.2) As he often does,Al hit the nail on the head.Its the skill set of the pink thing behind the steel that's the crucial factor.3) Intercession by St Michael of the SwissChamp saw a gorgeous Pukko style knife arrive on my doorstep this morning!More to follow....
@ Hienz ~i've been waiting for that D'eskabar to be released and if you can pick one up for that price YOU MUST get one by the time they reach this side of the pond they'll be three times that probably which is WAYYYY to much for such a tiny bit of metal so 'I' will likely stick to 'Moras' which do cover 90% of everything i'd ever use a knife for.
My personal quest is now at an end(for the mean time) thanks to TaxiDad,but for the sake of interest, I'll ask anyway: Arn't the skeleton form knives uncomfortable to use?
