Over priced for AUS8

I have the blue ZDP Eagle talon and the AUS8 ultralight Hawk talon and love both. I only have a sample size of one Al Mar in AUS8 but have several other knives in AUS8 and I have to say that the Al Mar steel is the best AUS8 knife I have and really think it is as good as my Spyderco VG-10 knives. Sharpens easy but still holds the edge really well. I wouldn't call this a hard use knive anyway so I think the AUS8 is well suited to the probable use for this type of knife. If this knife fits your needs I think you will be completely satisfied.

If this had been the eagle hd with zdp189 I would have been all over it! Too bad!

If I didn't already own a half dozen Al Mar Eagles in various configurations, I'd be buying a couple of these. I know a lot of knife guys that won't touch them (usually cause they're steel snobs), but the flat ground Eagle Ultralight is one of my favorites! So light and thin it's like you're not carrying anything at all, yet it's really a very capable folder.

Very glad to see Al Mar make it to Massdrop. I'd get an ultralight hawk if it was offered at a good price. This is a good price for the eagle.

the blade length on the eagle's is 4". The design of this knife is quite old. The original metal bolster knives are basically a scaled up and refined version of the Gerber Silver Knights that came out of gerbers shop when Al Mar was chief designer there. At the time these knives came out America was still the place high end knives were made, few people viewed Japanese knives as high end. Most good quality knives that came out of japan were made of Aus 6 , and ATS-134 was just coming into the market and was really expensive. Aus 8 was considered to be the "high end" cutlery steel for Japanese knives at least as far as stainless goes. Al Mar was one of the companies that changed the whole perception of Japanese knives as nothing but low quality knock offs of American knives.

If you like the style, but are looking for something a little more budget friendly, the new Kershaw Al-Mar collaborations are a nice option. There are obviously some differences (i.e. frame lock, assisted flipper opening), and the original Al-Mar will have better fit & finish, but the Kershaws are very well done for a price point in the $30's. I have the Kershaw Al-Mar AM3 and it was money well spent.

Al Mar are the best knives I have ever owned. The blade is beautiful and holds an amazing sharpness. All their knives are lightweight, even when not an ultralight model. They may seem pricey, but trust me they are worth every penny.
