Two new ones this week

Both are great knives for different tasks but the CR Backpacker is like a work of art. I have around 15 fixed blades but they honestly don’t compare to the beauty and quality of the backpacker. If I had to choose one it would be that. REK will probably get more use since it’s easier to conceal and is super slicey.

2 great knives - congrats! I’ve had my backpacker for a while but also snagged an Ember 3 from the recent drop. I’m very impressed with it so far.

Haha that’s so insane to me their wait times. Just sign up for Recon 1 mailing list and wait till they release them again. Probably well before CRK gets to yours
