I had a mixup with wood suppliers, and ended up having two beauty sets of scales sent to Rick. I was faced with a challenge. Try and choose between which scales to use. I wasn’t up to that challenge, so I said screw it, and ordered two knives. One for me in a2, and one for my son in 154cm, as he is 19 and may not look after it as well as I would.

For you guys who have had multiple knives from Rick, and both of these steels Rick is using, did you have a preference?

To be up front, I’m not a steel slut, and feel that blade geometry, and heat treat are likely more important than the latest greatest super steel anyhow. Maybe I’m wrong, but buying a bag of Manila rope and cutting it until my knife is dull ain’t my idea of a good time cool
