New AGA 11" Dagger
Just got this, the new AGA Dagger picklock. Just like the 70th anniversary knife but with dagger blade. There is a picture of the 2 together. These are really good deals in my opinion. N/S bolsters, full brass liners, good looking blade and fires hard with solid lock up.

Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Looks great. I've been eyeing those, but I haven't heard much feedback on them. How do they compare with the Walt's 11" in terms of fit, tightness, gaps, etc? They're certainly a more affordable option.
Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Walt's is a better knife. Much better fit and finish and 5mm blade and spring, much better looking scales also. But the AGA is half the price. I would definitely recommend a Walt's.

Beauty you have there Thom. I have shown what little self-control I have in that purchase thus far. Lord knows I'm "weak" lol.

Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
They really are a good deal, especially with the 10% off. They are just like the 70th aniv. knife. If you were happy with it, you will love the dagger.
Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Thanks, Thom. I appreciate the feedback. Yours look so good, and they're such a bargain that I may have to grab one in mother-of-toilet seat just for the novelty.

Corvus, You won't be disappointed.
Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
I'll let you know. (duh - I gotta quit swiping at that 'fly' crawling around in your avatar ).
Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Thom: in the photo of the closed dagger it looks like the back spring may be slightly lifted from the back of the knife. If it's not just the photo you may want to get it looked at. If the back spring is being lifted when the knife is closed it can be hard on the spring.

Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Who has these knives in the US?
Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Nice looking knives. Thanks for sharing!
Re: New AGA 11" Dagger
Don, you are right. The back spring is twisted. It works fine though. I have one of the newer 13" with the same twist. It works OK. Probably cost more to fix it then the price of the knife.
