Kodos to Lee Baumgart
Broke the tip on my knife while field dressing an antelope. Notified Lee and he said send it over, I'll see what I can do. Excellent result.



Thanks Lee.

Just curious, did he give you an ass chewing?

Not even, it's a hunting knife. It's now a better knife than when new. Heavier at the point for better support, shorter blade which I prefer. 3-3.5" blade is my preferred for field work on game, longer for general work. I'm waiting for a short 4" or less, .187 blade with moderate taper to a beefy tip, drop point. We'll see.

All I can add is that the knife was properly hollow ground and properly heat treated.

No problems at all with the knife. If you use your tools you a bound to break something every now and then, Buy with confidence from Lee, great guy to deal with.
