Here's one of the twistcore krises that I got from ebay this year. It has a very robust blade. If you look at the last photo carefully, evidence of vein like pattern seen on twistcore blades. Re-sized photos from seller.

Hello DaveS, Do you still have this twistcore kampilan that I gave you as present from Pasadena Knife show some odd years ago? That's was my first twistcore puchase, some give away price. Seller asked me, what did you see in it? told him the handle! hahaha.

Chris: Yes i do. When you said campilon i couldn't remember which one until i looked at your link. I also found out that a full-sized camp that i bought from Lee Berg, and which has a very rare handle style also seems to have a strange type of "twist". There is some dark staining that needs to be cleaned up before i can really tell, but i think it is some kind of twist. It has been up on our backboard for a good number of years and i just didn't take a really close look until a year or so ago. Iv'e been thinking about taking it down and working on it, just have to work up the ambition i guess.........Dave.
