New knife

Post by Hombre »

I bought this one today.... Sometimes it is too easy to just push the button....
When I get it, it will go for a SPA treatment....
Should really appreciate your opinions about this one... good and bad...

Best,

Tell the "spa" to bring the blade tip down a little.
That's a very nice Bonsa lever lock.

A spa specializes in beauty treatments. The origin is European. There are a plethora of these establishments that have opened in the US to aid in preserving good looks and health. Knives often can benefit from such treatments, although mineral water baths and massages are not typically included. :mrgreen:
