Sounds good Jon, please add me to the list

Rob - I gave the Wiseman tool a good go and I didn't like it much either - I'd be happy to compare both to that as a a baseline

For any that haven't seen one, this was my Wiseman tool

Hi Jonathan, Not wanting to make your pre-list list too long but would it be possible for me to be added to the pass around? I've only just got my first bushcraft knife (Mora Force), but would love to have a go :)

I think I might be missing a trick here but why the sub-hilt type prominence between the 1st & 2nd finger & the 'bone breaker' false edge - not sure how a reverse grip works on these.

Not seen it until now, just to confirm Mr Lupus has got his refund as promised, however to be clear a replacement tool was offered, great shame the focus is upon something that no longer applies.
Ahem, well, you can't please all of the people all of the time.

As posted earlier the tool he received was one of a very small batch (The very first) that went to an external heat treatment company, we were considering using them to speed up production.
There is a lot of truth that some things should not be rushed.....

Fortunately we opted to heat treat in house, whilst this has indeed added to the production time it does allow for tighter control, in fact I've tested the tool myself and continue to do so. Video Here


Hope this helps keep a balanced perspective :)
Merry Christmas to you and yours

Cheers
Tom
