First Fall temperature hike! Eightie degrees at 0530. Local overnight monsoon activity helped to drop the temps, and wash the ozone from the air.

NKD from C. Risner Appalachian Ridgerunner Single blade Clippoint 390SV Fat Carbon Dark Matter Red

Another solid build from QSP and just the right size for a multitude of tasks snappy walk and talk. Similar to my Indian Head Brand the Ridgerunner has great ergos and the correct and solid jimping. Super steel and easy to maintain!

First time purchase from TPK C Risner Indian Head Coastline Jack modified Spey in 154cm with Red Smooth Bone

Couldn’t be happier with this modern traditional knife. The Long pull EO notch makes opening easy, and the walk and talk is loud and proud! The Fit and finish is literally flawless (I could be missing something but transition lenses qualify as microscopes right lols) The functional jimping really locks the blade in the hand. This small and mighty blade really punches above its weight and the choice of 154cm steel and the appropriate blade stock thickness for this piece were the icing on cake for me! I will be looking at some other offerings in the C Risner line up soon. Customer for Life
