I haven't had a chance to handle a laser strike yet - I love the blade size and shape, but hear the handles are a love-em or hate-em type thing.
Did you hear Rowen is going to make a HEST4 this year?
Yes it has been confirmed

Well like I said, mine is one of the original Rat 1 model folders also made by Ontario If I remember correctly. It is nice. Not a sharp edge on it anywhere except for the edge.
They are supposed to be very good folders

yup - Ontario got that one VERY right.
good ergos, light weight, edge geometry that cuts well and a HT that stays sharper than you would expect for longer than you woul d expect out of a lower end stainless. Don't remember if it's AUS 6 or AUS 8, but I used one while building my house and it did a great job of cleaning out hinge mortises and taking fine shavings off board ends to make joints fit perfect.

When they went to a different manufacturer I think I remember a lot of folks griping about them, being not that great of knives, the the one I have is nice.

I think it is AUS 8. I keep it in my 511 push pack out in the truck.

Bark river. Man I couldn't remember them.

THOSE are Kissing Crane?!

Wade and Butchers I haven't heard of.

They're nice knives though. Those older blades seem to have some kind of magical quality to them. Sharpen up and work well.

You just reminded me that I forgot to put them back
