Hey there BLF, Got my 2nd Cima knife review finished up today, a little less than a week after I reviewed the Cima 1058. This one is a bit different, because it’s more of a bushcraft style blade modeled, okay copied, after the Esee-3. It features a micarta flax linen handle, and a titanium (?) powder coated blade made of 7Cr17MOV steel. I do some chop tests, cut some cardboard, and shave some arm hair. It’s short and sweet and hopefully a bit funny, and I apologize but I’m a bit sick and you can hear it in the voiceover. By the way, this was provided by GearBest for review and you can buy it at the below link. It’s non affiliate, but the one they wanted me to use.
Full disclosure. That branch was pulled from a pile at random out back. It had been there a season or two, so it wasn’t exactly as hard as it once was.
Would love to see that in a bigger version and with a better steel. Would buy it in a heartbeat if the size would be like a RAT 7 or even like Izula 5 with 9cr18mov. Sheath looks functional too.
Me too. I spend about half an hour today looking for such a knife on Aliexpress, and almost off of them sport 4 inch blades or shorter. Although, personally I use my Kukri for heavy duty chopping.
I feel ya. Or flashlight right? My Meteor should be here tomorrow when I get home.
Ok, thats what I meant too. Thanks! I am very concerned about the pacing and try to make them as fast paced an informative as possible. That and I prefer shorter runtimes too.
As far as I know, no one else carries these knives yet. I have looked many other places for them, but it appears for now that only Gear Best carries them. Sorry!
