Wondering if anyone has any experience with Cripple creek knives and would share their opinions. Saw a couple of these knives and their were fairly expensive but looked like a quaility knife.

Thanks,

They are quality knives. Several years ago, I bought a CC Barlow and I still have it.

Thanks for the response. Does anyone know what kind of steel they used?

TN,

If you're seeing the newer build CC's, they were made under contract by Great Eastern and, based on the several Great Easterns that I use, would be very nice. I believe the steel on the CC's is 420HC. If you're interested in getting one, I can't help but think that you'll be very satisfied and impressed with the fit and finish.

Regards,

Tony

My older CC has carbon steel blades. 1095 I guess, but well tempered. They hold an excellent edge.
