help me find one to hold me over
help me find one to hold me over
Im looking for what one would constitute as a hard use folder. something with very tough steel, and a thick blade(example would be the hest folder). fixed blades are not my thing, but i would like something that will hold me over until the TUFF gets here :) . I love spyderco, and i find myself afraid to use some of my knives for tasks other than just plain slicing something. manix 2 is already in my edc rotation and i love it....but im looking for more. thank you in advance guys!

I don't know that this will do but I got this to tide me over until the TUFF.

I like my hest folder, it's kind of small overall, though. 3" blade, a little bigger and a lot thicker than a delica. A coated D2 steel blade is pretty tough. It came with a rough 40 degree grind on it and that's what a lot of ESEE blades seem to come with, I reprofiled it to 30 degrees, but I still can't get it to slice very well because the blade is so wide behind the edge.
