    Forum Lava hits the prairies... first thoughts

    Ok, 12hrs since this little gem hit my door... think I've got enough fondling and light cutting in for a quick review

    Immediate thoughts: Finally a knife that fits my left hand better than my right! That right there earns it 5 extra points Size seems odd until it's locked into your fingers, then it seems right at home.

    Handle/Ergo's 9/10: Just about perfect, maybe a 1/4" more on the butt end for my large paws. Middle finger takes a second to find a spot, but the knife just glues itself to your hand. Find out how it handles lunch tomorrow Lock edges are a tad sharp, might have to smooth em down.

    Blade/Edge 10/10: Great for opening packages, boxes, clampacks, cutting jerky, and apparently electrical tape (had to make quick mods to my niece's costume today). Great control, might take a few days to get it down 100%, but it's just about natural so far.

    Overall: Not sure how well the engraving will hold up to left handed carry. Just means I'll have to buy another one when my local gets em in Only one way to find out though.

    19/20 + 5 bonus points... 24/20.... 116%

    **bows down to Chad** Well done man, well done.

    Why do people worry more if you argue with your voices than if you just talk with them? What about if you lose those arguements?
    Slowly going crazy at work... they found a way to make the voices work too.
