Solid working knife adam. Congrats!
There is something to be said for those. Good users!
I've sold off a large number of the high end ones (Striders and Chris Reeve, mainly) - the trip to Oregon and now the transmission in the Expedition, money is better spent elsewhere than steel sitting in a safe collecting dust.
My most recent purchase was an Emerson SOCFK tanto from a friend. I love tantos... My Emersons are some that I will not sell any time soon. :)
Use the heck out of it!
A few years back I took a visiting lady to fish one of our trout streams near Cape Town. I found it quite fascinating that she travelled the world alone. But I think she knew how to take care of herself. She gave me a knife as a gift and when I saw it I got the picture. :shock:
The Bear Claws are awesome – I bought another for my wife.

G, I am still in the process of finishing my paragliding kit. I have a lot of interests but very few funds after the family is taken care of but this will be the knife I carry with me. The bottom one, rounded tip and serated for cutting myself away in the event I am being dragged and or what ever reason I want to be cut from my wing.
They are relatively inexpensive.
Like minds.
The CRKT Bear Claw is a good cost effective claw - it was inspired by Fred Perrin's designs. Perrin is a french tool designer who is in to street survival... A little about him here: http://www.donrearic.com/perrin.html
The basic La Griffe is currently produced by Emerson Knives - I have worn one for a couple years now. It's a great utility blade in addition to the SD function, and is concealable in many ways. (more here: http://www.donrearic.com/emersonlagriffe.html)
Adam, for your kite use, they used to produce a "whitewater" version that was serrated and with a blunt tip. The CRKT version will undoubtedly be more fiscally responsible. :)
This is what mine looked like new... (looks better, or worse depending on your perspective, now... :))
It will be a good companion Addy. :bigthumb:Originally Posted by adam
I have the sharp tip, serrated version...very very sharp and holds their edge seemingly forever.

That's pretty cool...I like its basic look. My only reservation would be the seemingly uncomfortable grip? The BC has a swelled butt which fits quite comfortable in the palm of your hand.Originally Posted by gstrand
