Looking to possibly have a make over done on my Case. Wanting to replace the nickel and chrome with brass fixtures, any suggestions?

[mclaincausey]

I would look at USN boards for that

This knife is so gorgeous I leave it out like a decoration.

Hate the "Idaho made" stamp. My Sebenza doesn't have it, fortunately, but my Ti-Lock does

We received this yesterday as a wedding gift - Chris Reeve 9" Sikayo:

It's really an interesting knife, the blade is only ground on one side and feels very nicely weighted.  I'm looking forward to getting acquainted.

[Giles]

You mean illegal?

[mclaincausey]

Scandinavian grind Clint, very nice. And congratulations.

I carry a multi-tool, which is apparently legal in Ireland, which bums me out as I'm moving there. What's that about, Irish forum members?

Weird. But I feel your pain. Here in Oregon we have some of the most liberal knife laws in the States, mainly because major knife manufacturers Benchmade, Kershaw, Leatherman and Gerber are based here. I carry an auto Benchmade knife every day. But I can't take it out of state with me because "switchblades" are illegal in just about every other state.

great gift @Clint_D so this "friend" gave your wife a tool to take you out with?

damn shame :O)

enjoy the married life buddy

Nice looking knife.  How comfortable is it to hold when you're working with it?

[Clint_D]

Thanks all. It's a beautiful knife, we just got it last night so I haven't had a chance to use it yet. These come as right or left handed so it's very ergonomic and it seems like it's going to be really nice to work with.

@madmonday That was my first thought when we opened the box! I'll have to sleep with one eye open but married life has treated me well so far.

[Giles]

I'd love a review when you have used it a bit, I'm keen on that….

[Clint_D]

No problem, I can make that happen.

Cause we're all mad! .. and drunk.. all the time.. Who'd trust a mad, drunk, irish man to legally carry a knife.. not me for sure!

It's a traditional Japanese grind, only on one side. It makes sharpening the knife easier as you only sharpen the secondary edge bevel and then strop off the burr. It's left and right side specific as a right hander will cut food right to left, and the slices will fall to the right side without sticking to the blade. Vice versa for a lefty

A Scandi grind has a low primary bevel like your Sikayo but doesn't have a secondary edge bevel

That's a really nice knife, you should get a lot of good use out of it
