Wouter,
I should stop visiting your thread. Visits are too expensive. I already regret passing on 40th Native. :eek:

Beautiful picture. Thank you Wouter.
It looks like all you needed was VG10 :) And I am sure that it was absolutely sufficient.
Great looking old classics. For some reason I stopped carrying my Persian. Probably got bored after carrying it every day for ten years. But recently I started to carry Kopa. Most of the people, who saw it were really impressed with workmanship.

wow, the same knife for 10 years?! You sir, are a better man than me!
I know what you mean about the Kopa, it's been a fine 'ambassador' of my knife hobby towards non-knife-people for many years.

I am not sure about this. I just couldn't find the knife, which I loved more than Persian.
I am carrying N5 almost since they came out. Not the same knife, but various flavors of the same model.

That's cool, I've only ever heard about them.

Maybe we could get a small forum run on one of the off years that they don't want to do a full blown forum knife. :p
