Shabaria lovers?

[Dav]

I'm considering a Shabaria... but I'm curious what those of you who have them think. I have moderatly long fingers if that matters...



Love? Lust? One night stand?



What is the public reaction like?



Thanks!

Most people seem to love it or hate it. If you like the way it looks now, you'll probably like it in the hand.
I personally love it. I just wish Spyderco had made the first gen. with the eccentric pivot like the most recent run. Now I have to get a another one. If you decide to get one, make sure it's one of the newest run with eccentric pivot.

Dear Dav ;
I'm preparing to order a
"Shabaria", I have long fingers and I
don't think this will present to much
of a problem. It's collectiblity is yet
another factor as Eduard Bradichansky is
no longer with us. Plus, it's a VERY
intimidating blade shape. Make mine with
partial serrations. Happy Hunting !

Sincerely,

A.E.T.

I love mine. I'm not sure if I have a new one or old, I don't know what other changes were going to be made, but buy one if you can. Very nice knife.

Thanks for the opinions and info! I'll prolly order one in the next two weeks or so!

Anyone else care to add their .02?

I'm aware about the update to the design and intended to be careful about that... even though I have no clue what exactily an eccentric pivot is. :-P

Thanks again
Dav
