Hi Matt Your knives look great and to have them factory personalised is a nice touch. Here are a couple of quick pix of the Bark River Bravo1. This really is a very impressive knife. I added the ruler to give some perspective but as you can see the blade is a monster about 1/4 inch thick. The blade has a convex grind which is somewhat new to me. I am use to hollow ground and flat ground blades but if all the hype is true then this convex grind should be spectacular for such a heavy blade. Many years ago a blade like this was the result of a poor craftsman with a file or stone.
It is a beautiful knife and fits my hand so well even taking into account the monstrous blade.
I will post some pictures of the Fallkniven when it arrives (hopefully tomorrow) I also ordered a very cheap Mora Knife after reading some impressive reviews and seeing how inexpensive they are.
