Now the two friends have collaborated to produce two of Lloyd's most popular knives, they call them the Lloyd Pendleton Hunter and Mini Hunter. In fabricating these knives, Cold Steel has tried to duplicate Lloyd's work as accurately as possible. The Pendleton Hunter's hollow ground blade is honed to perfection. The handle's cross sections and contours match Lloyd's handmade knives exactly. For safety and durability, they have dispensed with leather in favor of Secure-Ex for the sheaths. This material won't rot or mildew and is far more resistant to cuts or punctures than leather. Whether you're hunting the Big Five in Africa, Elk in Colorado, Moose and Bears in Alaska, or Whitetail deer in the North Forty, there aren't many things that will enhance your hunting experience more than carrying this superb custom-quality hunting knife. The Pendleton has a 3.5"" blade with a sharp yet sturdy point for piercing and a truly razor-sharp edge with plenty of belly. Its hand-crafted polished blade is hollow ground from 5 mm thick AUS-10 blade construction. Review: Love the knife, the sheath could use a few changes. - Love the knife, and the blade length is just 1/10 of an inch under legal max for a concealed knife in my state. The handle is unusually long (as in it fits my larger hands) for a 3.4" blade (CS says 3.5 but it's 3.4). The steel (AUS10A) is just fine for an EDC knife. I don't buy $300 and $500 knives with boutique steels to EDC. I want a $50-100 knife it won't crush me to lose. The knife gets 5 stars plus. The sheath has a few problems. First, the nylon belt strap works, I suppose, but I'm concealing this knife, not going camping. Sure, you say, just put another belt clip on it and it'll nestle in snugly on or behind the belt. OK, I would, but the eyelets are not only weirdly spaced and thus don't match up with standard custom clips, but they're also have and undersized ID too small for standard Chicago screws! I fixed this by ordering a $40 custom small-craftsman kydex sheath with standard eyelets and spacing. It's all good now, and knife + custom sheath price is still a good value for a great knife.
