Re: $6 D2 knife?!

You'll get way more than $6 of use out of that knife. Seems like a fairly neutral design with few if any hotspots. I can't really see the clip, so that might be bad or good.

Re: K390 leaf blade dragonfly

My longstanding order from a non-stocking seller was recently canceled after numerous updates on delayed delivery. Too bad as it was a good deal had the stock ever arrived.

Re: Thin grinds?

There’s no free lunch, for sure.

Some of us like balanced steels because while you don’t gain as much, you don’t lose as much either.

Re: Going clip-less commando

Due to the heat and humidity here, I'm mostly wearing cargo shorts. I carry clipless knives often since I need easy access to my knives, but not instant access. A Vanquest POCKET QUIVER 3X4 helps with clipless carry.

Re: Dedicated box cutter knife?

No, I don't want a box cutter handle that uses disposable blades - the edge is too short for me, and the cardboard binds up where the blade meets the handle - I want an actual knife with a thin 2.5-3" blade (or not so thin blade with a thin grind) with the same shape as a box cutter I understa...

There's a pretty long thread about the idea a several weeks past.

Re: Apex Ultra!

I think it is telling that this thread got moved to general discussion from off-topic. Mule sounds plausible.
