The biggest difference with this knife is that it has a much tougher pull in comparison to the new runs, it's probably a 7, while the others slack off a bit.
The grinds have all been really great, a nice little edge that pops hair very well. The fit around the pivot pin is lacking in comparison to the next run of knives, but this was a test run and is open for criticism.
Black Bull:
This knife also have a slightly strange fit around the pivot pin. It looks as though thy used a dark glue to fill in the gapes surrounding the pin. It hasn't damaged it's functionality and I doubt it will be a problem later on.
The biggest difference is of course the scale color. The Pull on this one is about a 4.
Red Neck Farm Tool:
Inspecting the pivot pin, I see the fit is perfect. No gaps and no signs of glue used as a filler. Very nice finish for this one.
Biggest differences include the Red Neck, stamp on the pivot pin and the tang stamp. The pull on this one, is probably a 4 1/2. Which is about perfect for me when I'm wearing gloves.
