From the Sharpening Bench -- Winkler Knives II F-1: Tactically Different

Published: 10 years ago

NOTE: The blade steel is not CPM 154 as stated in the video. It is in fact CPM 3V as its owner Lee informs me. Feel free to snicker and make fun of me as I continue throughout the video to refer to the incorrect steel :)


Here's a "first impressions" video, from the sharpening bench, on a brand new offering from Daniel Winkler and Winkler Knives II. It's Dan's first production folding knife, the Winkler Knives II F-1. The F-1 features purely Winkler styling, materials and design, mixed with some modern features and engineering like a flipper deployment and ball bearing suspension. The F-1 isn't perfect, nor is it as robust as one might expect from Dan Winkler, but it does seem to be a very capable, slickly operating, tactical / utility blade. Check it out!
