It hasn’t arrived yet, but the other day I purchased the Komoran 013 for my wife to use when we go fishing. I exclusively use Power Pro braided line, and that can be very difficult to get a clean, precise cut with out causing frayed ends.
I was hoping to find her something with blade made from s30v, or 154cm steel and scales made from G10. Even used on Ebay those criteria proved to be more than I was willing to spend on something that would exclusively be a fishing knife.
This is made with G10 scales, and D2 steel with a titanium coating for corrosion resistance. It’s the same type of coating that Buck used on the 223 fillet knife I posted in my fishing blog.
I will post updates once it arrives, and then once it gets out in the field and gets tested.
UPDATE: The D2 steel blade is wonderfully sharp. It cuts the PowerPro braid like a laser.
