Good looking knife!

That is a pretty knife. A little too much belly for my preference, but the geometry looks spot on for a sturdy feel with good performance. Nice!

Not surprising there, they definitely have that "Kono" vibe! Love that profile, might have to snag one of these. I'll be looking forward to Steve's Quick Look videos on these!

Sir Jeff, I thought you had already ordered one, before it gets too cold to sleep in the bed of Big Red! (That sounds dirty, but it isn't. ;) )

Very nice looking knives, and I'd bet both series perform to boot. The extra heel height and how it affects the profile and the handle angle/height make these seem more ideal for taller folks. I'll be curious if the 240s are proportional, or if they will have roughly the same heel heights for more length.

Heard from a member that has one of these, very positive comments, no surprise.
Have a birthday in December and Christmas approaching fast, I think I see one of these in my future! 8-)

And maybe some bling for Big Red! And, in case I forget, Happy Birthday Sir Jeff!

The birthday knife didn't happen? Sad Panda is sad for you.

I bought the Oboro version and love it. It quickly jumped up the favorite list for me and was in constant use for a few months.
