that looks like a very capable package. Enjoy!
That thing has a wicked grind!
One day…,,
Are the first three Left handers
I am Left-handed, so they are all Lefthanders.
The difference is that the first three were designed by Good Knife Co., so they have that stamp on the other side. The last one is not a Good Knife Co. design; it's completely DM.
Thanks, I definitely will.

Thank you so much for the kind appraisal of my work FSA. I'm super thrilled you like this model, it's a heart stopper!
You are welcome! It’s even better than I thought.
I love the look of that skinny fat. I think one with firedog canvas or lime green suretouch should be properly winter tested up here in AK. I am busy but I could squeeze it In…
Two Magnacut Bowies.
Seriously guys this is an awesome knife. If you have a chance to try this model, take it. I've had a lot of fun in the last day messing around with it in the backyard.
And here's the DM collection:
Breaking trail today took 4 hrs to go 5 miles- got stuck repeatedly and covered in snow. Knives are wiped down and gun is drying. Magnacut is made for this!

I can tell you that there is already skinny fat Bowie in the green SureTouch up here in Alaska that is being used and tested as time permits.

...as I sit here in the kitchen thinking that would make a great knife for chopping veggies.

The skinny fat long Bowie almost wants to be a Tonto. I like it
Clearly I need to get more pictures of it chopping vegetables.

I’m going to add to this post about this wonderful knife. The first thing you will notice is mine has a full flat vex grind versus the low sabervex / Scandivex grind. The reason I went this route is I don’t like the other grind or even plain Scandi grinds as they offer me no advantage in the way I use my knives. This one has the green and black SureTouch scales which I like.

One thing I like to do with almost all my knives is to start using them in the kitchen first. The reason for this is, I do a lot of cooking when I’m home. This allows me to get more familiar with the knife on how it feels in the hand and how it’s going to perform when it comes to cutting different mediums. Now with that being said I don’t ever expect non kitchen knives to perform as good as a chefs knife. I’m always pleased when one performs half as good or pretty close to my chefs knives. My Skinny Fat Bowie in 3/32” AEB-L is very pleasing in the kitchen for smaller task. A little slicing and mincing.
