Report number two on the Cryo II
I had it what FELT sharp. Finger plucking etc.
But not until I stropped it on my jeans would it cleanly slice paper.
It is the same way my Cryo acts.
My thinking is that the edge is very soft.
My thinking is that if I ever really need to cut stuff the Cryo isn't the one to use......

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Picked up these 2 today. Not bad if I do say so myself. Pretty sure the "assisted" knife has been re-handled but not a bad job.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Rex, the old Keen Kutter is a pretty cool knife.
I was pleasantly surprised to find this early 60's vintage Queen #15 Half Congress in a toolbox this morning; I recently inherited the tools and hobby items of an old friend - this knife was in the tool box. I cleaned and sharpened it up; the blade edges had been somewhat butchered in years past, but it has a decent edge now and snaps right well - no blade wobble and is equipped with Delrin handles. It is a nice remembrance of my buddy Scott. OH

Rex -- That Keen Kutter is the cat's meow.
Colonel -- Very nice to have something by which to remember your buddy. That right there's special.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
I went to the Fairbury Nebraska 4th of july flea market and found a couple of goodies. A Case Tested TL29 in great condition, and a JAEGER BROS. sheath knife missing the guard. The handles are wood grained celluloid. Mark.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY

I agree, but in a traditional whittler, it would be a coping....jerryd6818 wrote:Uh, boys. I don't think that's a coping blade. It's one of them there new age small clip blades.

Re: KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY
Scott, Look real close at your knife and the one Ken posted, I believe the jigging is identical. Most likely the same mfg.
