Beesrib Posted March 30, 2018 Share Why the cable tie?

The Ghost Posted March 31, 2018 Share It’s a badger, a budget type knife available at a number of outlets. https://www.google.co.za/search?q=honey+badger+knife&rlz=1CDGOYI_enZA644ZA644&oq=honey+badger+knife&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l3.8979j0j4&hl=en-GB&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8 Edited March 31, 2018 by The Ghost pista 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delica is a nice start with Spyderco, beware......it doesn't stop there ! This is my EDC Monday to Friday. PM2 is my heavy duty worker. It's 5 years old and just keeps on going, definately one of my better investments. Weekends is usually much lighter duty and then I carry some of my more special knifes. pista, Letum911, Beesrib and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is relatively sharp from the box, enough to cut yourself. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk pista 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekends is usually much lighter duty and then I carry some of my more special knifes.Please reconsider that holster.That type of holster and it’s variants are responsible for more people shooting themselves than any other.PM me if you wish to discuss, I don’t want to hijack this thread Beesrib 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSG Posted April 3, 2018 Share Please give me advice, I saw this knive at Trappers, what is your opinion? I have 2 multi tool Leatherman's for work and I'm looking for something light and smallish to put inside my pocket.

The Ghost Posted April 3, 2018 Share When I’m looking at a knife I look for a few things, the steel used, the manufacturer and its history, the design of the locking mechanism (if applicable), the liner and the grip. On a knife like this (and the price is a good give away), you can disregard the manufacturer and the finer details. So we are left with the steel.This particular steel is best described as adequate in most departments of hardness, corrosion resistance and edge retention.It’s not great or even good in any department, but for the money and if you are looking for a knife that you can work and not get attached to it will work.
