Knife review thread 1 Attachment(s) Nub and I were PM'ing each other about knives and I thought it would be a good idea to post reviews of the knifes you use. What do you like and dislike. We can save each other a few FRNs. Here is my review of the Benchmade 553SBK and SOG Trident Tanto The Benchmade blade is just over 3.5" and is a combo blade. The axis locking system is incredibly secure with little back and forth movement - a very stable blade. The blade locks in place with a similar sound to that of a mag slammin into a gun. The grip is solid and fits well in my hand. The handle is just over 4.5" and clips easily into my pocket. I was concerned with the length of the handle would be too big for any everyday carry, but it is not. The knife has performed well with easy tasks (cutting vegetables, paper, boxes and opening Christmas plastic wrapping). I have yet to perform any serious tasks other than cutting some brambles in the unkempt section of my yard. The blade is 154CM steel and should hold an edge well and is easy to sharpen. The only drawback comes with the pocket clip. The knife is designed for a right or left carry. However, the hex bolts are of a size I do not have. I have over 30 hex wrenches (metric and standard) and not one of them fit. WTF? Perhaps there is a standrad hex wrench for pocket knives, but I do not know what it is. For 76FRN, this is a solid knife and will provide years of solid service. The SOG was an accidental purchase. I placed a low bid on eBay, 22% below lowest online price and 10% below lowest eBay price. After doing some research, I did not want the blade, but I won anyway, so I have another blade. The blade is just under 4" and is a staight edge. Cuts well and solid. Nylon rope cuts easily. It is AUS8 steel. SOG has an assisted opening that is sweet. The blade locks solidly in place, but there is a significant amount of back and forth movement - the blade wiggles. This is surprising considering SOG designed this knife for Soldiers in mind - so they say. The handle is a DuPont synthetic plastic. It will probably last forever, but it feels cheap in my hand and the grip is not comfortable. However, as a grip for fighting it fits comfortably and securely. As a utilitarian grip, it is not that comfortable. The slit in the handle allows easy cutting for smaller rope without deploying the blade. That is a neat feature that I like. Overall, I would NOT recommend this blade. For the price 51FRN I think there are better blades out there, but it does look vicious. Give your reviews fixed or folded. The Great Ag

Re: Knife review thread Just noticed this thread , getting ready to hit the hay, might post something about the Boye or the Kershaw JYD 2 since me and you have been discussing these. For now I'll just say the Kershaw junk yard dog 2 is one helluva knife easily worth double the 50 bucks or so that I spent for it.

Re: Knife review thread http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/92/dsc2494cx3.jpg This is my fallkniven f1 and my new gransfors forest axe. The f1 knife is not pretty but very solid. It has a very thick blade that protudes out in the back. It is rather on the heavy side for a small knife though, I wish it was a bit lighter. I guess it wouldn't be as sturdy then. This setup suits me fine, but I could also imagine going with an even smaller knife with a thinner blade, and a bigger chopping knife with a long blade to replace the axe. It would save me some weight, but then I'd have to bring a saw, and a long bladed knife takes more maintenance. Hmm. I like simplicity, things that don't break. A saw will break eventually, an axe never breaks. Gonna try out the GB in spring, I hear its good.

Re: Knife review thread The clip bolts on the benchmade are "star" or torque not "hex". I bought the benchmade toolkit on ebay for $12.00. Worth every penny. I have the benchmade Cabela's griptillian and mini griptillian both with D2 steel and axis action. I love these knives. The blade steel gets insanely sharp using the edge pro system. I also have a benchmade osborne 960 silver also with D2 steel. I also have a mini griptillian with 154cm steel but I like the D2 better. Seems like the D2 gets sharper and stays sharper longer. The osborne is a bigger knife than the mini-grip, but it is lighter. Of the four benchmades that I have if I had to choose one, I would choose the mini-griptillian with the D2 steel.

Re: Knife review thread Good thread , let's keep it going. Everyone should carry a pocket knife and this could be a good resource for those who may be looking. Best bang for the buck isn't always the cheapest,nice to know you can buy top quality for a modest price, the venerable buck 110 should not be over looked, a bit heavy though and no pocket clip. And for all out bang for your buck at rock bottom price is the french made opinel line of knives , extremely sharp , easy to keep sharp and very light. I have about 10 of them but I would say the 3 that get the most pocket time are 4", 4 1/4" and 4 5/8" closed, their blade lengths are 3", 3 1/4" and 3 1/2" respectively. They utilize an unusual but effective blade lock system , you do so buy turning the metal collar until it wedges the blade in the open position...simple yet effective. I have them all the way up to the GIANT.....the garden knife is a great knife also, and not just for the garden http://www.bladematrix.tv/index.asp?...=opinel&Page=1 I'm not saying this is the best source, but I can't remember where I bought mine , but who cares at these prices.....I'll post it if I find it in my faves Because they are wood it's a good idea to keep the handle water tight through water ever means you wish so that if you soak it you can still get the blade to open. I carved and nicely sanded pocket in the handle where the thumb slot in the blade winds up when closed that way I'm able to grasp more of the blade with thumb and index finger.....but that's getting a little carried away, they work just fine from the factory. One last thing ,select models of these knives are favored by wood carvers

Re: Knife review thread I have a SOG Seal pup elite http://www.cuttingedgeknives.com.au/...4002322_21.jpg This is my "resting" knife. The one I have with me when getting some shut eye. I think the quality of the knife is outstanding. The materials are well formed and put together very cleanly. I like the way it handles when held in a normal fashion or when it is held in a kind of backhand way. It makes for a good slashing blade. You can go in with the fist and slash on the follow through. The handle is an interesting material. The texture is pretty prominent but I am suspicious of how grippy it would be if there was a bit of blood involved. I guess that is the same in many cases. Of couse blood gets sticky as it drys so you only need to hold on hard till then. Even so, without trialling it I wouldn't bet on there being a problem that way. The finger grooves are widely spaced which should cater to larger hands than mine. There are two positions for your thumb for different levels of leverage. One is on the grip, the other is at the base of the blade where the serations begin. While I haven't given it much in the way of meat work I can assure you it is razor sharp and would do the job nicely. I have the stainless blade which is very impressive. I would have liked the black finish on the blade but it was not in stock. Still that gives me an excuse to buy another one some time in the future. The sheath was the only part of the package I didn't like. It is well made from some kind of canvas material but I think it is very tacticool. Not sure. I would prefer a traditional type of sheath. Still you could lash it to your leg blackwater style and it would work well. As advertised. I would buy the big brother of this one next time. It has the exposed tang at the tail of it, which is useful for cracking things open and popping windows etc. I am very happy with this knife. I would also like a folder that might has an open assist mechanism for pocket carry.

Re: Knife review thread Knives I have and would recommend. Cold Steel LTC Kukri: http://www.knifecore.com/store/image...roductid=16314 SPECIFICATIONS: Blade Length: 12" Overall Length: 17" Blade Thickness: 1/8" Weight: 17 oz. My go to WTSHTF knife. Nearly indestructible. Can cut through just about anything and what it can't, it will crush. After using it on trees, I can say without question you can cut someone's head off or chop an arm off. In close combat I wouldn't choose anything else. Cold Steel War Head: http://www.knivesplus.com/media/CS-80PWH.jpg Specifications Overall: 14" Thick: 4mm Weight: 10.9 oz. Steel: 1055 Carbon Blade: 8 1/2" Sheath: Cordura Another one of my personal favorites. As a fighting knife it is top notch. Very long, wide blade, and razor sharp. A perfect stabbing weapon. The War Head reminds me of the gladius Hispaniensis. It's based off a old American frontier design so it also has survial qualities. The sheath is terrible though and you WILL need to repair it or buy a better brand. Cold Steel Battle Ring. http://www.countryknives.com/store/a...ages/39LRD.jpg SPECIFICATIONS: Blade Length: 3.5'' Overall Length: 9'' Weight: 4.4 oz. Blade Style: Double Edge Triangle Blade Finish: Mirror Polished Edge: Plain Blade Steel: AUS 8A Rockwell Hardness: 58-60 Handle Material: Grivory Pommel: Integral Sheath: Secure-Ex™ One of Cold Steel's newest, and most unique, designs. It's like having a knife sized spear. The blade is exactly like a shark's tooth as they say and it's designed to give maximum leverage with a thrust. The blade, especially the tip, is razor sharp and I don't think it would be a problem stabbing through tough clothes like heavy denim or multible layers. The sheath is secure-ex so it's great. The only problem I have with this knive is how it was designed to be a neck knife. You have to pull it out of the sheath a certain way and it's far to large to wear around your neck. The Battle Ring is NOT a gimmick knife, this is a serious weapon. More to come....

Re: Knife review thread Cold Steel Safe Keeper II http://www.bladehq.com/images/knives...abberThing.jpg Specifications: Weight: 3.6 oz. Handle : 2.6" Blade Length: 3.75" Steel: 420 Sub Zero Quenched Stainless Steel Overall Length: 6.6" Grip: Checkered Kraton Grip This is my favorite push knive I have owned or held. The construction is A level from top to bottom. The sheath is Secure-Ex and fits perfectly into a boot or on your pants by the small of your back. No special release issues like with the Battle Ring. I have no complaints about this knife. Smith & Wesson '24-7' http://www.knifecenter.com/knifecent...ges/sw247s.jpg SW-24/7BS Locking Liner Pocket Knife. Stainless Steel partially serrated edge, clip point blade with easy opening thumb stud. Zytel handle scales. Metal belt/pocket clip 4.25" Closed Length 3.25" Blade Length Great pocket knife. The steel blade/frame and Zytel handle are of good quality. A great value for the price. Victorinox Rescue Tool http://media.rei.com/media/uu/7fd23f...b169a9e21a.jpg PRODUCT DETAILS Large Locking Blade Phillips Screwdriver Window Breaker (removable) Strong Screwdriver/Crate Opener with: Bottle Opener Wire Stripper Reamer, Punch Seatbelt Cutter Key Ring Tweezers Toothpick Disc Saw for Shatterproof Glass (removable) Luminescent Handles Specifically designed for vechicle rescue. The glass breaker and seatbelt cutter are a must have in your car and the large, locking blade is nice for a change on Swiss army knife. The blades on this knife are like razor blades. One "flaw" is that the large blade is not easy to open with your thumb in one hand. The sheath is excellent though.

In a "survival" situation I'd rather have the multitool, it increases your odds of actually having the tool you need. If I was stuck in the woods by myself I'd rather have a pruning saw than a machete.

Re: Knife review thread 1 Attachment(s) Well - I'd add a couple. Yup, carried Leatherman for years. Carried Woodsman's Pal for longer than that, but my original (bought in 1971) mysteriously disappeared when I moved Back to the NW in 2005. So now I have a brand new one. Seeing as how my old one Cost me $1.50 at a certain used but not abused store In Medford, Oregon, the price of the new one hurt. I carry a nice Benchmade folder, plus a tiny Kershaw "splinter picker" kept razor sharp, on my key chain. Couple of sheath knives, a Western which I've owned for 50 years, and a Gerber I've owned for 30. However, the real gap I perceive is this: I have two Collins Hudson Bay pattern axes. One was my Dad's, one is mine. My point: you do not have to go freakshow tactical To have the ironmongery you need............. scyth

Re: Knife review thread I just bought a Smith & Wesson SWHRT9B - it's a short little double-edged boot knife, 4.75" blade, 9" overall, 7.7oz. 440C Teflon coated stainless steel, in a leather boot sheath. It's a pretty nice knife for only $17.50. I also got a SOG SE37-N SEAL Team Elite. 7 inch AUS8 serrated black Titanium-Nitride coated blade. Nice heft, extended tang. Weird sheath that is bulkier than I like, but well made. It's a beauty. Here's a site that has a decent picture of it: http://www.sog-knives.net/sog-knife.php?prodnum=SE37-N

Re: Knife review thread I love knives and own a few of them. I am not very fond of folders. Serious knifes are fixed-bladers.

Re: Knife review thread I've had that same Buck folder for 25 years. It is a good serviceable knife with excellent heft for a folder, and it can take abuse. It's not the easiest to put a good edge on though.

RexPerpetuusNorvegiae | 03-22-2010 01:44 PM
Re: Knife review thread Finally received my Buck 110 Folding Hunter, it locks up perfectly and is completely tight, no blade play whatsoever, a bit heavy, but it is nice to feel that you are holding something solid, it also came in a nice leather sheath. But this however i did not expect, lacking quality control? not that it bothers me, but i feel that this is not the way it should look. http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/5311/dscf4413.jpg

Re: Knife review thread The Mercator k55k back-lock folder, the body is only sheet metal so it's lightweight, carbon steel, with the possibility to attach it to a lanyard, made in Solingen Germany and the design is supposed to be over 150 years old. A nice backup imo http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/39/mercator.jpg It is also said that this was a treasured souvenir amongst American soldiers returning home after ww2.

I love spydercos, my favorite pocket knife is also the endura but not the SS as too heavy for comfort as pocket knife for me. Although I do have a couple of the SS models, including Police Model. I was into collecting pocketknives for awhile years ago, so I'm set for life in that area. One of my non-spyderco favorites is a rare damascus blade Buck. Paid less than hundred new, last I checked about 10 years ago they were going for $400 in unused condition... one of the best "metal" investments I've made so far, lol.

It works for me: https://www.fantasyblacksmith.com/im...nife%20Set.jpg I also recently ordered a couple United Cutlery 1110 Tactical combat knives.

Nice, slim knife.) http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...2L._SS500_.jpg (Understand that all the knife sites and gun sites are blocked my the filter on this computer, so I can't post some hosted pics.

Re: Knife review thread I just realized this is a review thread, and I did not review anything. So, I bought a Smith and Wesson Urban Camo Folding knife in a collectable tin box. http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/c...-3-1900037.jpg Anyways, I have one, and a friend of mine has one. Both of us had problems with the Torx screws coming loose and the blade wobbling in the handle. I actually lost a screw out of mine, so I brought it back and the guy replaced it with a new one. Got to keep the tin box for both knives, so I made survival kits out of them. This knife comes factory extremely sharp, and will hold an edge for cutting flesh (animals, etc) until the cows come home, but it is not rugged enough for use as a carver, IMO. It's very pretty, and opens quite easily. It does not jam in the open position, unlike a couple of my other S&W folders, such as this one, which is only sharpened on one edge (Meaning only one side of the blade is ground down to an edge. It's weird...) http://www.ciriuscollectibles.com/ca...36_1_thumb.jpg I also recently aquired a boot knife: http://www.ciriuscollectibles.com/ca...~_1_4079_1.JPG Only sharpened on one edge, but I can sharpen the other edge easily enough.

Re: Knife review thread Up for review: Hibbens Generation II Large Thrower, Tripleset. http://www.getprice.com.au/images/up...350_gh2011.jpg Length = 8.25 inches Weight = TBD I picked up a set of these because I ordered a set of small Hibben throwers by accident, and felt they were much too light. Good for my kids though... The HG2's are a beautiful set of three blades that come with a Nylon sheath, providing an individual pocket for each blade. This protects them from scratching during insertion or withdrawl, and also inhibits steel on steel clinking. The Sheath is sized to allow the knives to fit in snug, but not so tight that it is difficult to sheath them all. Smooth withdrawing is a bonus. It comes with a standard belt loop. The only thing I would add to the sheath is a lower loop to allow for an optional leg strap, or attaching to tactical vests, etc. The blades themselves are constructed from one piece, tempered stainless. The weight is perfect, due to the thickness of the steel. The balance is perfect as well. The handle has a nice shape, cut out to ergonomically fit into your hand, and the index finger groove offers a landmark spot to place your hand, ensuring consistency in your throwing and releasing. Once I figured out my distances, I had no problem sinking these knives point-first, repeatedly. Starting at my customary position of approximately 12 feet away from the target, I found the distance for one rotation quickly. After that, it was not problem to estimate the required distances for 2, 3 and 4 rotation throws. By the end, I found these knives were spinning consistantly and predictably, and I was sticking three in a row at roughly 45 ft away from my target. The weight of these knives are another selling point. Due to the cut and shape of the blade, most of the meat is still there, offering a heavier weight for a knife of this size. Oftentimes, a company will cut away a lot of the blade material for aesthetic purposes, but Gil Hibbens is obviously more concerned with function over fashion. (I can't get the weight right now, because all the knife sites are filtered, but if I remember, I will weight one at home and update this review.) Regardless, when these blades hit point first, they stick with conviction. Due to the rugged construction of these blades, if you make a bad throw and they "ping" or "slap", they will not bend or warp. At least, they have not bent or warped from my bad throws. Even the sharp tip is rugged in construction, with enough material there to ensure strength. Another bonus with these knives is the factory edge: I would grade the sharpness at a 7/10. Overall, I have to give these throwing knives a solid 9/10. Anyone looking for a solid set of throwers, that offer consistancy and quality should look at the Gil Hibbens Gen2 Large throwers.

I'm late to this thread but here's some well intentioned advice to the younger generation. -Don't watch movies based on video games -Don't play video games based on movies -Don't buy knives based on video games, movies or branded by Gun companies! (this goes for knives that are named after guns, too) If you aren't trying to kill people with it the Victorinox Farmer is one of the most useful pocketknives you'll ever carry. It will saw through a thick branch, open a beverage, open a can of food, tighten or loosen both philips and flathead screws, the utility blade will slice all manner of things and it has a sharpened metal spike to puncture, bore holes and to use on things that might damage the knife blade. The handle is aluminum, it may pick up a few scratches but it's strong and the knife is very durable. You can even wear it on a string around your neck if you'd like. Used correctly this small and light knife can scavenge food and tools or build shelters, fires and traps. It will help you survive just about anything.
