Actually intended to be a direct replacement for one lost while dozing on mini sofa in Mrs Biggfoot's hospital room .
But the 2022 production was " upgraded " to have the swoopy angle at the front of the handle vs the perpendicular on the 2021 production . And it just won't quite fit in my previous leather case .
Why this one ?
Ever since way back in the day , I wanted to try some D2 steel .
I'm old school , and like single edge, plain edge , and " normal " shape , meaning either clip or drop point .
Covert has a $30-ish upcharge for D2 over 440C , which puts D2 into my comfort range @ $85- is online , and I paid $70 with insider discount at gun show .
( And I made 1st page in the new Sub Forum .)
