Nicely done by Brisa. Model 95 the hiker in full flat. Held up to some batoning some hard wood and was still able to shave thin pieces. The edge feels very thin and sliced through wood like a dream. Sheath is a nice leather dangler style. Not bad for $60. Only complaint is that the handle was a little slick so I wrapped some electrical tape around it

Interesting looking knife. I was expecting to see a $16 Mora Companion after reading the title.

What kind of steel?

Sandvik 12C27. I do love my Mora knives but sometimes I want a full flat rather than a scandi. Handle is very comfortable and more grippy after putting the electric tape on it.

Have you tried the new Victorinox Venture knife? It has 14C28N and similarly shaped.

I have tried it but didn’t care for the handle. Just didn’t fit for me. Nice price point for a Victorinox fixed blade though.

The handle has swells or something, doesn't it? It looks like it is not neutral.
