HOLLIDAY - Snakewood

Impressed

Perfectly nails the “modern retro” aesthetic. Comfortable, balanced, and sharp out of the box. Action is flawless too. If there’s any minor nitpick, it’s that mine came with a touch of filler used on the clip-side scale where the edge meets the bolster. You have to look to see it, and it was finished well. I figure this is to be expected with natural materials. This did not stop me from immediately ordering the micarta version from an authorized dealer, nor from hunting down the currently hard-to-find ox bone version. Highly recommended.

Like a Dream

The fit and finish on this knife is superb. The action feels like it's been hand-tuned. A company could offer this knife in a supersteel like Vanax and ask $500 and no one would question it.

Quite a handsome unit, Wharncliffe rules, and seems to hold an edge well

The wharncliffe blade shape has long been my favorite, and Finch has done a fine job with this piece. Beautifully made, solid, and opens quickly, locks up solidly. Looking forward to more designs from Finch. Did I mention that its handsome?
