Chinese Taylor Brands, it's not a bad knife and only time will tell if these knives are any good.

Those small lockbacks are a great size and design for pocket carry in my opinion. I've got a couple from other manufacturers that I've carried and I really like them. Of course I'm a bit of a lockback addict anyway.
How does that one do as far as holding an edge, or have you had it long enough to tell ?

It was pretty sharp when I got it. I don't carry it much, mainly I got it for the buffalo horn...if that's what it is. At that time I also got a couple of Old Timers, maybe I'll review them here.

Nice!

I've bought two import Schrade knives this year and surprisingly both have very hard stainless steel blades. I'm guessing 440C or 440HC.
I've been wanting to buy and compare one of the new Sharpfingers to my old one in 1095.
My retirement shall consist of carbon steel, cheese, and crackers.
