I like the fluting in the titanium and I’m jelly of the M398!Herman Knives Micro Sting.
2.95 inch blade.
M398 steel.
Titanium scales with steel lock bar.
Details are pretty nice on this one. Never have seen texturing like this before on an inlay. Looks like Death Valley. The color shifts a lot depending on the lighting. Goes from a brown color in yellow or natural light and more of a gray under cool white lighting.

Nope, I ordered direct from Polish Custom Knives. Only Herman I could afford, and probably the only one I’ll ever have. I just found the inlay unique enough it was worth it to me.DLT release? Those were spendy, but gosh they looked nice.
My first from Ted Frizzlle.It is 10 1/2", 5160 differentially hardened with phenolic amber grips with brass rivets , heavy so I think 3/8" stock .Has a kydex slip sheath .I will lace this to the side of a slinger day pack I have .Legal in CA and Oregon. It has heavy flats that could pound tent stakes ECT,much like a updated WW2 OSS Smachet.

I feel like I got a good deal on this one. GEC 87 Oil Well Sucker Rod Wood. Cool knife but the 3.6 inch clip point is too big for my taste. I never checked the specs before buying it It’s a very nice knife however, with a fun little blade etch and shield.
What's the story on the hoof knife? I've had a few of those but none were special in any way. This one looks like it's not of the common type.
