Nice ones robbobus, I love the 77 and 78. Good assessment.
This flew in a couple days ago. Had to give it a while. See what I mean Sunknife? Anyway it's a great knife and concept no doubt. Great build, transitions, snap, feel, tight no wobble lock up, everything works like a charm. I like the wharn like you wouldn't even believe, just find the clip and the whole frame longer and heavier than I thought it would feel and I don't know, not me. There came with it a bit of bolster rub as you can see in the close ups, doesn't bother me, but does some people. Thank KnifeConnection for that, they had it in the tube barely wrapped in the wax paper and since it's a bigger knife it flopped around during shipping and had worn through the wax paper on the ends. The KnifeConnection had it flopping around in an oversized padded envelope so it traveled around in the envelope. So anyway, it has bolster rub and very hard to see, but I caught the beginnings of blade rub on the wharncliffe for all to see. I opened it a couple of times, both blades, took pics, never carried or handled. This is how it left KnifeConnection. Kind of lame by the factory and the dealers, not to put something in there so they don't flop around. I do anyway. If you're interested in this one with said issues fully disclosed, PM me and lets make a deal. I'll let you have it for a bit less than the dealers, just trying to recoup and move on, not for me, great knife but I know I'll never carry it. Otherwise I'll have to do business with the beast that is eeeeeeeeeeebbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Let me know if anyone is interested.
