Re: H1 Fixed blades

One day I want to buy an Aqua Salt. Something always comes along that I need more, so I still haven't gotten one. One day. If I ever come across one in our neck of the woods I’ll let you know 👍🏻 Thanks. It will be expensive . I just got a nice one on eBay. The thing feels and looks slick. I think I...

Re: Serrated Edge for Hunting?

I feel a plain edge cuts thru muscle much cleaner. The serrated edge leaves a rough cut on meat. IMO, muscle meat is soft enough to not require a serrated edge. I use a plain edge Shaman in S90V for my game management.

I don’t think I’ve submitted this one. Disregard if I have. In any event it needed posted again. Lol

Re: This knife should be in production…My dream hunting knife put together.

I use a deep carry on this knife for a very specific reason and its not to conceal the knife. When wearing my rifle on a shoulder sling, I found the butt end of my rifle stock would tap against the top of the exposed portion of the knife when using a regular clip. Using this deep carry clip elimina...

Re: This knife should be in production…My dream hunting knife put together.

Nice knife indeed (except I personally am not into deep carry clips), thanks for sharing! :clinking-mugs But for hunting: Wouldn´t the thinner Bodacious blade be even better? (I am not a hunter (harder to become here in middle Europe than in most of the US), so this is really more a question than a...

This knife should be in production…My dream hunting knife put together.

I finally had the time, patience and money to put together what I have in my mind as the best all around folding hunting knife. I had to have a Shaman because of its perfect ergos and thick robust blade. S90V is my favorite steel to work with and this knife had to be blaze orange, so I Frankensteine...

Re: Catcherman LC200N Sprint Run

I just got back from a trip to Florida where I got to do a lot of surf fishing. I absolutely killed the Pampano in Destin, FL. I have had an OG Catcherman that was just collecting dust as I always just default to my regular fixed blade AFTCO 7” filet knife, so I decided to see how it actually worked...

Re: Your Favorite Slysz Design And Why

The blade finish on the Techno 2 is the best i've ever seen. Why this wasn't used on the Drunken is beyond me.

What is the best application to tool steel for long term storage?

I have a lot of knives, specifically a lot of Spyderco tool steel blades. I store my "safe queens" in their original boxes, usually with OEM desiccant bags in the boxes. I also have larger desiccant bags in the safe to help prevent corrosion. Although I take these precautions, I from time ...

Hi Jmj,

K04SBL only.

Sal, I was lucky enough to find one on sale for $49.99 at DLT Trading. I quickly snatched that deal. Can't wait to try it out in the kitchen or maybe anywhere!
