Nice pic, but why don't you give us a little more input than a name and a jpeg. Drive-by posters. . .
Edit: After looking at the
Harsey T2 tactical, plain edge web page, the 3.9" S30V blade is nice. It has a locking-liner which may or may not be nice depending on how it works with gloves and when it's wet and slippery, but that's true with any knife.
What can I say, I'm a man of few words
I’ll use it with leather “rigger” type gloves and I don’t feel that it’s a issue operating the locking liner.
Haven’t had any issues with slippage from wetness. The nylon scales offer enough friction and the molding on the underside to conform to fingers offers additional grip when wet. Its served me well dressing game.
However, I prefer to not have my fingers in the blade arc when I close a knife -- personal preference and that's a requirement to close a locking-liner.
I theory I can see you point but If you’re closing it 2 handed you’ve got control of the blade with you off hand and for one handed closing you just need to move the blade just < 180 deg. Its probably not as safe as an Axis lock, but I don’t see it as much of a risk.
JohnnyUpton,
I have to say, I'm practically in love with Harsey. Is it the T1 or T2 that I like though, cuz I always forget? Their auto knives have the trigger under the scale, so that it's protected from the environments. Good steel, great handles, looks pretty tough. My problem is the price and finding a place that sells them, so I can handle them.
How has it treated you so far?
MD – I have the T2 Ranger and I really like the knife. Its not an automatic and I really don’t have much experience with those models.
Its stout enough to chop wood, I kinda chickened out using it to break the pelvis of a deer. I’ve broken a 110 doing that and I was kinda cringing at the thought of doing the same with this knife but I had an saw to cut through the bone. (Although I think Lone Wolf will repair or replace the damaged knife)
The T1 is a little smaller than the T2 (about ½” IIRC)
