You did the scales? Those look nice.

A button lock knife is very popular. Many are well under $100. I’d recommend the CJRB Pyrite Alt for a blade shape more similar to a razor. if you want even smaller the Mini Pyrite Alt is a great 5th pocket carry. https://www.knifecenter.com/kc_new/store_store.html?steel=AR-RPM9&style=Wharncliffe&usrsearch=pyrite&sortType=priceAs
My only real complaint is:
Anyway, these are pie-in-the-sky thoughts. the SAK is a standard by which others look to emulate for good reasons.
I have a Farmer X in green ALOX, a Camper in black ALOX, and the classic Hiker in red ABS and I’m happy with all 3. My Hiker is now my go-to for gathering fatwood in the nearby forest. That saw is perfect for the branches I’m looking for.
But the author told it’s not a joke, so I don’t know if he’s serious or still joking.
He’s still joking.
That does not look good at all. I hope the maker responds.
I would certainly reach out to the maker directly. That seems like a real issue if he’s forging the blades himself.
It is not normal for damascus but there could be a lot of factors here. How are you sharpening it? What sharpening system or sharpener are you using? Who made the knife? Can you talk more about the manufacturer?
Jansport is excellent. I recently sent a 30-year-old bag in for warranty work which they honored at no cost to me other than shipping. A great choice.
Anything for the knife community. 😄
I have an Ozark Trail insulated cup as well and it’s great! Not dirt cheap, I agree, but far better value than a Yeti for sure.
Ha! Indeed.
Ok that is something I had not at all considered. Very good idea.
Yeah for the money I was hoping for something a little bit better. 14c28n probably would have been my preferred at the cost but D2 is fine and gets the job done.
That’s great. I was going to use a D2 Elementum this year just to see how well it does.
I really need to get a khukuri. I have 1 custom fixed blade in 3V that I use for a lot of wood processing. Otherwise a couple Mora’s are always around for a variety of tasks.
Just this week I lost my Olight i3T! I’m really bummed. I had the brown/brass colored one and it was starting to wear in a very satisfying way. I know it was only $20 but I use low self-discharge NiHM batteries in my flashlights so that’s gone too.
I like you’re setup and it’s cool you stitched the wallet yourself!
That’s so great. Having a knife with family history is really a treasure. It’s something that you know was used to learn and explore and you can pass that down to others too. Each mark or rust spot or worn piece tells a part of that story.
As the kids meme: Porque No los Dos? 😂
For what it’s worth, I can run 129.0.2-1 via the PortableApps interface without error.
