I examine my blades often and when I pull the caly and the edge is patina'd like the bevel, it's time for some use! I don't use any oil on this one now.Holland wrote:this almost makes me want to go through the N5 in the drawer and grab my caly haha

I really liked the lightweight. BD-1 is actually a good steel to work with. Super rust resistant, takes a very fine edge, tough, edge holding like 8cr13mov. What i really disliked was the handle, especially the corners. They are not rounded at all which created hotspots when hard working. Surprisingly i did the hg a bit more than ffg...DougC-3 wrote:As you can tell from my sig, I'm a Manix fan as well. I'll eventually get the lightweight and it'll probably turn out to be one of my favorite EDCs, but I'm sort of holding out for a black blade or other variant.
I'm sure I'll like BD-1, plus I don't have any yet and, at this point, I'm trying to sample a wide variety of things. I've got some 8cr13mov coming today -- a blue Persistence :)jul wrote:I really liked the lightweight. BD-1 is actually a good steel to work with.

Never thought light gray would wind up being the color of some of my favorite knives :)

Getting in some time with my Forum Native5 before my new brown Native"1" arrives; also my first ever blue knife, a Persistence.
