Very little info out there about real world use of these knives. Seems most people that have just set them on display. I did see that one of our members have one and I have my eye on one now as well after spending a few minutes with several models at Mast in Valle Crusis.
I’m a sucker for Boker knives and just picked up a Gemini VG10 assisted while I was at Mast to replace a similar one I lost hunting a few years ago. But woe is my heart as I can’t stop thinking about the WK Blue Ridge Hunter with micarta handle that I ever so gently fondled. I’m not a collector, per se, as I do have quite a few decent folders and even less fixed blades, but they all see work and some get really beat on.
This line of WK knives are stock removed, not forged. Great balance. Great feel. At $325 for an NC-made piece of steel, am I crazy for even considering buying one and planning to put it to hard use?
