until you look at the map you dont realize how critical this area was. Even having lived on many of these islands I did not realize the proximity to the mainland of Japan and the Philippines

I do wish that Frost still had Japan making the knives. They just seemed to have a been a step higher in quality. This is a standard lockback made fantastic by just adding some good etching and a wonderful handle
