Ye I personally really loved my matriarch, even with the FRN handle, it may not be solid or as grippy as G10 but it was plenty good enough. I just would like there to be a afforable defensive hawbill in the line up. The knife is meant to help white hats defend themselves, so something affordable to ...

Very very nice knife indeed
I always wanted one but never got around to getting my paws on one of those :(
I have the SpyderCard from EB, it too is a great knife.
Beyond razor sharp, powerful cuts and very very strong.

The man made some wonderful and spectacular designs.

Ye I AGREE!!! Man them things are nasty. Wonder if this would be concidered the worst striking weapon in existance or if there is something even worse. Anyhow, there are brand new coldsteel sjamboks on ebay for BUYITNOW prices ranging from $8 to about $12 for 42" and 54" ones. Cheers MaNcEr

Great thanx for your imput. I have a job interview lined up tommorrow which is gonna be late shifts (Graveyard), I have and enjoy friction lock batons, but in alln honesty I think the most superb defensive weapon that is flexable and can be bend to be stored in back packs would be a Sjambok. A blow ...

Castle Lager, the beer in this country tastes like its watered down.
The one Lager I like here though is Squatters, tastes pretty much like Castle back home.

Well my first "knife" was a Spyderco Native, and I loved it and still do (although I lost the darn thing in this country :( ) I think its a safe, well built knife for many situations, it was used back home at work, home and for camping. It has a wonderful shape which sinks in your hand, it...

Seems fairly solid and bright, but not nearly as bright as I thought it would be with what I have read. For its size I must ad...
