    I couldn't resist - ordered one after seeing your post. I like the Obake design but not a fan of the acid etched look. Thanks for the heads-up.

    These are nice.

    Al Polkowski made great blades.

    Since we're on Kwaikesn for a bit, and I really like knives too, here are some Watson Kwaikens:

    Ooh.

    I wanted a Dingo and hoped to get one from Al at the Baltimore show many years back but that year he didn't come because he had passed away. I miss his designs, always clean yet purposeful.

    The CRKT S.P.E.W. looks like a solid option and costs less than $30.

    I wish I knew more about it. Other than it's one of Joe's..154cm steel Paul Bos. heat treat spear point, paracord jap wrap, and appears to have an acid etched finish. I don't have a clue on when he made it or any other info. Found it for sale on another forum and couldn't resist.
