The vendor, EDC Vault, is a new store on Amazon.CA and he sent the Harnds Talisman folding knife to me about a month ago. I was impressed with it the moment I saw it but it wasn't until I had used it for a few days that I was totally head over heals for this knife. The ball bearing pivot is one of the features that makes this knife extra special - the smooth action is hypnotic for a guy like me, and might be for you too. Don't say I failed to warn you!
The Talisman is a very special knife. The first time I touched a knife by Harnds was about 8 months ago, and the knife was the Blazer, it was then that I became instantly convinced that Harnds is a brand name to watch. The Talisman is, quite simply, an excellent knife. Is there room for any improvements on this knife? Not many, but yes, it would benefit with better blade steel but that is mostly due to the stigma of AUS-8 and not necessarily the performance of the blade as experienced in the testing I did with it.
Here are some links for places that you can buy your own Talisman.
