I particularly am attracted to the Pena model, but since I still need both of my arms and legs, the odds against my obtaining one seem slim to none.
That won't stop me from looking though!

Yeah, they are going for about $275 - $300 new on the bay. I made an offer that was accepted. I love my Pena X Series Lanny's Clip and Caballero so I figured I would get the Trapper. I also have a Pena Barlow that will be here today. Now I'm looking for a Large Texas Trapper.
Still like the Lanny’s Clip best.



Garry, the short answer is: The Pena X-Series are made in China (only Enrique Pena's handmade customs are made in the USA). And they are indeed very high quality knives...as reflected in the price.Quick Steel wrote: ↑Fri Mar 10, 2023 7:21 pm I am not familiar with Pena knives, Where are they made, please?
Nice one. I’m not a big fan of coated blade although I have many. Blade HQ has a few coated G-10 models at $199.QTCut5 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 10, 2023 10:43 pmGarry, the short answer is: The Pena X-Series are made in China (only Enrique Pena's handmade customs are made in the USA).

Here's my one and only - with natural jade G-10 handle (that I managed to score from an eBay auction for a bit over half the MSRP) :

Yes, indeed!
The detail on that nail slot is gorgeous. It is great to see makers include touches like that.joeradza wrote: ↑Fri Mar 10, 2023 10:27 pm It was a rough day in the Frank household today. Well technically only half because the cub lockback is a Queen City. Man is it small. It’ll go into the 5th pocket. The abalone is gorgeous. The Rough Ryder fixed blade was the one I was looking forward to and it is just what I hoped for. A solid thick piece of steel that I did a paracord wrap on.

If I'm not mistaken Jeeper, the detail you refer to is called "coining". JFYI!Jeepergeo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 11, 2023 5:14 pmThe detail on that nail slot is gorgeous.
