Well, order 2 of these little fellas to my address (when they are on sale if you like) and get one back with a cf scale.
I could even include a (simple) pattern and fill it up with gidt epoxy.
Just made some shopping cart coinless keys and included a smiley one one and alien eyes on the other one.
Of course I forgot to take pics before gifting it to my sister and my b-i-law.
The skull didn’t work out so well but I guess I’ll try another one.
wow, yes I see what you mean there. I only have a few frame locks (I’m not really fond of them) but none of mine have a cutout on the other side of the handle like that. That is definitely design flaw IMO. Looks like a high chance of it closing up on you when you grip the handle, pushing the lock bar back off.
On the ones I have gripping it would move the lock bar further in, thus locking even tighter.
I think i could manage with the “design flaw” on the 5009 but the knife im looking for is for my 11yr old son so i wouldnt dare give him that.
He is already flicking my 7010 fully with his thumb
Thats not the one im refering to something in smallers V, but apreciate your concern
I take my leave showing my current collection of knives
Still mising a Ganzo 7511 that im wating to arrive. I discovered that I fancy more flippers knives ,especially with ball bearings or roller berings like the ruike.
Hi all. My son does some basic hiking and camping. I would like to buy him a full tang fixed blade budget knife. I do not know much about fixed blade knifes, so can anyone provide a few suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Hi, lots of options, depending on your budget, blade length, stainless or not, USA made or not, etc…
On a budget for a very good outdoor knife?
Have a look at the Terävä Jääkäripuukko (made in Finland), available in carbon or stainless, 110mm or 140mm blade length, with leather sheath (or no sheath!)
(may be temporarily out of stock until the next batch is made)
It has poor ergonomics and doesn’t flip very well. Blade way too thick. Anodizing is thin, was already full of scratches when I got it. The photo above is photoshopped to make color seem amazing … the knife in real life looks nothing like this.
