I truly enjoy smooth action on washers, they're do much more durable imo, could be wrong just my experience. My favorite knife, I ironically never carry is the first run of the Ivan Bragnets Kristal Bronze Horseman II №149/150, bronze Ti & polished satin m390. The tip of the blade at some point was tapped into something from the spine side before it shipped. You can't see the damage with you eye, I had to put it under a low power microscope to see it & can be felt only from the right side of the blade. The case as you likely remember is very nice with the water blocking‽ zipper. I personally liked the flipper tab after I figured it out bc it's so muted, I'm a thumb flick/stud kinda guy. Im a novice sharpener and have a hard time seeing the angles with the work sharp precision sharpene, & know better than free handing as I have a slight tremble from fibromyalgia & also still shake from all the Albuterol i was given as a child from bad asthma & bronchitis. I would honestly like to sell it as I'm taking care of my father who is dying of cancer & so I have liquidated all of my premium knives but this one and a Skelton Boker Exskelibur II in CF & s35vn, which is relative whether one would call it premium. Anyway I feel it's a shame this knife is going to waste bc of a ding a decent knifesmith could make like new, and as it came from Russia b/t a month or two after ordering I wasn't going to attempt sending back which may not have been an option. I think I paid $260 before tax and shipping, and I'm guessing that it's either worth less bc of tip, or more due to it being of that limited run. I'd prefer to sell to someone who knows how to fix it where it won't be detectable that it was ever there yet don't know where to start finding that type of buyer. The tag is still on the case & has the authentication information. Love your videos, if you have a suggestion I'd appreciate it more than you know, however I'm not looking to waste what I know what is your valuable time. I would really like to trade for a Fred perrin Le Bowie XL, the 4" scaleless edc fixed blade for some reason isn't made anymore but the small one is. Had one, let my dad use it years ago for a trip to the big city and he lost it, lol. Done rambling hope you're doing well.
Sweet folder and I do prefer washers over bearings. 👌
Nice
Nice.. i just picked one up off the secondary for a pretty good price.. im looking forward to it
Next on the list for me could be a Les George designed "Böker Plus Collection 2024" -- more in my price range 😸
Perfect.
Great milling pattern on that one. Hope to get my hands on one with different milling than the standard
Mississippi!

Semper Fi! That’s rad! I didn’t know Arizona customs would do that, but that’s a beautiful knife
I was pretty surprised also.
