Knife Pics!!!!

All good things come to he who waits... Write that down, it DOES happen. I saw and handled this knife before it left for its new home in the desert Southwest. I admit I fell hard for it's lines and was heavy into "covet" mode. While I'm a stainless guy (ATS-34) I can overlook it's 1095 heritage just to have it back in my hands again.



This is one of the few "varients" of the Diving Sparrow NBS (Northern Bushcraft/Survival); this is the Leuku NBS. It was a special order from a friend and fellow woodswalker. After several years he contacted me and told me that he was liquidating his stock of knives to pare it down to users only and the NBS was going on the block. You can imagine my joy and immediate horror that I had not the immediate funds to bring this baby back to me. Did I mention that he is a "friend"? He is, and a gentleman to boot. On my word that I "wanted" it he immediately left it out of his trade box and told me that when the money came his way he'd ship it to me.

While at Scout Camp last week "Saami" was delivered...

Let the games begin!

That is a beauty for sure. Friends are great to have especially ones with sharp pointy things they are looking to get rid of.
