Awesome knife IMO, and that micarta finish is great. Should make a great tactical outdoors knife. Opinions?! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

When I was younger I always coveted a CS Master Tanto. Considering that Bob Lum created the &quot;american tanto,&quot; this one is the real thing -- all due respect to CS of course. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

This looks like an amazing knife. I can't wait to get my hands on one. I have wanted a tanto for a long time.

Held the proto sometime ago. Great balance and good footing! The Lum FB makes an excellent tactical knife! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Ryan, It is the BEST spyderco so far IMHO. It has a special vibe of strength, beauty, rich design, balance and functionality. My local knife dealer, who is a bit jaded I suppose, called me to have me come down and get it. He warned me that it would &quot;knock my socks off!&quot;. It did. Got Socks?

Can you imagine this knife in Blue Micarta, or red? I'd be barefoot forever then....

I saw the FB Lum at www.beckscutlery.com today. Very nice. I really like it. I know its suppose to be a user, but it just seems to nice for work.

It is a modern classic in design and excellently crafted. IMO, it competes with customs. Bob Lum is to be congratulated and appreciated.

It's a real beauty, from the picture anyway. It's been in my dreams of late.

Received my FB03 last week, can't leave it in the box. A thing of beauty is a joy forever. Thanks Sal and Bob Lum, it feels like it was made just to fit my hand. Collector # 47.

Saw and handled one at the SFO Friday and this is one beauty of a piece of steel. Without a doubt the sweetest tanto grind I've ever seen! The sheath though?
