Ohta's knives are unreal. Fort Henry Knives http://forthenrycustomknives.com always has a large selection of them. Vince is also a great dude to buy from.

Knife Show today! To go or not to go? Hiroki Ohta will be there so I may have to attend.
I really want one of those friction folders and they are pretty reasonable IMO.
Exactly

There a new Spydie Southard. Shit!

I saw a couple of Unique Sebbies that made my trigger finger very itchy.
-
Gun show Nov. 30th, no Sebenza's though. I'm sure I'll come home with something cool…I hope.
-
So yeah… Seven months ago I got a Ti-Lock and due to it not working for me immediately, I got rid of it. Well: I'm getting another one. Now that my Sebbie's gone, I will have to spend more time with it. Not to mention that it still is one of the nicest looking knives I've ever seen…
I almost bought one Saturday. So tempting…..
-
Glad to hear was shocked when you got rid of it last time. IMO it is CR masterpiece. I have had every model of his knives and the Ti-Lock was the only one that blew me away.

Sick harpoon swedge.
Speaking of harpoon swedges, just got off the phone with Dave Curtiss after seeing this little one-off on USN. S35VN blade, love the filework on the backspacer. It's soon to be mine, he's invoicing me this evening:
-
That's pretty damn cool mac
-
Jeff, those Ohta's are sick…
-
I have had many knives way to many to list; out of embarrassment.
I have finally found my knife maker of choice and it is Ohta. His fit and finish is second to none and his knives are practical for me. I highly recommend checking him out. IMO you can't get a better non-tactical knife for the price.
-
I carry this old Case from D a lot. I love not only the knife but its old supple leather belt sheath. Tonight's carry.
-
Love how Japanese this Ohta friction folder is. Hamon line? Ironwood? Carbon fiber backspacer? Immaculate construction? Killer pocket sheath? Yes please. My next compact EDC. This was something I have looked at for a while but for some reason was too dumb to cop, even at its very fair asking price. Really glad the universe kept her in place for me.
-
^nice addition… that hamon is legit
-
Never owned a pocket knife before but have just ordered one up for use at work. Got fed up with cutting up fruit with a blunt table knife!
Having read though this thread and done some other internet research it looks like Spyderco seem to be a good starting point for quality and value.
I have ordered a "Sage 3", nice looking blue scales, handy size and relatively easy to keep sharp.
Will post some pictures once it lands.
