Something You All May Not Have Seen Before

[Moped]

I love simple knives and I got a new simple knife in the mail today. This one is a bit different than the usual stuff that's seen here. I ordered a Svord Peasant off Ebay Friday Evening and got it in the mail today.

The Svord Peasant is a friction folder. It's an old design (300 or 400 years old) that has been updated. The Blade is 3 1/4" 1095 steel and is razor sharp out of the package. Handles are black plastic. $15.95 shipped.

BTW, if you like great blades, checkout Svord Carbon Steel Knives. The Hand Made Carbon Steel Knife B.W. Baker designs and makes some fantastic knives!

neat. Reminds me a little of an old straight razor, somewhat, the folding kind.

That's what I was thinking. I figured it was because I have straight razors on my brain. Getting a bit tired of my safety razor setup, and have been thinking of completing the transition (cartridge razor --> safety razor --> straight razor)...
