Title: I just received my first OLT Custom Knife.
Post by: Biggerhammer on May 04, 2012, 09:08:03 PM: I was looking for a custom knife that was a quality knife but not a safe queen. One I wouldn't be afraid to abuse and was priced fairly. I decided to try 154CM stainless for the first time with this knife. 154CM is like 440-C on steroids. Delivery time was excellent, around three weeks from the time I placed the order. Some of my custom knives, I have waited 3 1/2 years for.

OLT
GP-8 Drop Point
154CM
Polished Maroon Micarta
Silver Pins
Black Liners

Post by: Skyvalhunter on May 06, 2012, 06:59:02 PM: Very Nice. So what makes a knife a $500 knife and another a $150? Is it the steel or the type of material used on the handle or both?

Most of it is the guy pounding it together. ;) Along with the combination of components. No different than the custom rifle game.
