Yeah, I have carried one every day of my life since 17 years old (Had a lot of cheep ones prior to that that I did not always carry for whatever reason). Something about being trapped in a car upside down (I was not driving), tends to make one think never again. I will never own another knife that can not cut a seatbelt in one pass, and I will always have one in my pocket. (even when I was stationed in Europe from 88-91, I had a pocket knife.)
People are to fearful of the wrong things. I don’t get it other than the news blowing things out of proportion.
edit to add Holy crap I actually got an image to upload thanks racoon city and JohnnyMac. Also, this is the first time in a long time I carried this Buck knife. It really doesn’t hold an edge very well compared to other knives I have
Well, it will be magenta instead of red but I don’t think I can get orange anyways
The difficult part will be the coat of arms, I just ordered a 10x10cm plate of Grade 2 Ti to experiment a bit.
Maybe I’ll make a nameplate, too, etching copper has proven to be a tad too difficult and nasty…
I have tried to find details on TwoSun knives for years without any success, it doesn’t seem to be a “real” company, more of a name under which one or several manufacturers brand some of their products.
As always, I could be wrong though and someone better than me has had more success.
Blue Chips, is that Spyderco a frame lock or liner lock? I was looking really hard at the Military/Para Military for the S90V blade steel, didn’t see one with a Ti scale as a frame-lock or I may have taken the plunge…
isti, that RFT has a nicely shaped blade… seems someone missed something on that frame lock though, usually the lock side is thinned down to keep it from being too stout, they didn’t take the thinned section all the way out so it appears it might be pretty stiff to flex, is that the case?
Edit: What I like about the blade shape is that the Tanto style knives were originally made from a broken Samuai sword, using the remaining tip and retrofitting it to a new handle. This blade looks quite similar to my Katana, except for the grind of course. My Katana is convex ground. 28” of razor blade.
