<p>Tobias, I am happy to be getting it. I thank you for it. I always like getting another knife. I haven't decided yet whether it will be a user or I will add it to my collection. When I have it in my hands and get the feel of it that will help me decide. I have three other knives that serve at least similar purposes and I have already used. They are a Buck Omni Hunter, a RR Sidewinder, and my Wiebe custom skinner.</p>

<p>My wife heard when I played the video where you announced that I won. She asked me what I won. I told her and she said, "You ought to play the lottery!"</p> Congratulations, Charles!tag:iknifecollector.com,2014-07-06:3181080:Comment:11609152014-07-06T04:49:59.334ZHoward P Reynoldshttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/HowardPReynolds

<p>And now for a confession. The Colt 405 was a knife that I thought I was going to like but over my feelings for it changed. I really liked the blade but wasn't crazy about the stag handle. I'm hoping Charles will find more joy in that I did. I've had the knife for almost 2 years and it wasn't easy to part with it. What finally made my cut the umbilical cord was when I bought the cousin to the Colt 405 - that is the Colt 407.…</p>

<p>And now for a confession. The Colt 405 was a knife that I thought I was going to like but over my feelings for it changed. I really liked the blade but wasn't crazy about the stag handle.

What finally made my cut the umbilical cord was when I bought the cousin to the Colt 405 - that is the Colt 407.</p>

<p>the 405 has a rolled stag handle that is attached with a rat tail tang. The tang passes through the handle and is capped off with a brass hex-nut. The rolled stag is also affixed to the tang with an epoxy.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The 407, on the other hand has a half tang inserted into a hard wood handle accented with brass rivets. Despite having a half tang, I just liked the primitive frontier look of the 407. I also preferred the feel of the wood handle to the stag.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Obviously it would've been easy enough to KEEP both knives, but I decided I would send the Stag knife off to another knife collector who might find more enjoyment in it. Use it in good health, Charles. It is a good one even if it is 420J2 steel and made in Pakistan!</p>
