Camp Knife. Joker Ember

#1

Post by Jerome Howard »

Picked this up today. It's an Ember. Make by Joker Knives, in Spain. It seems like a lot of knife for 80 bucks. Well made. Razor sharp. Nice sheath. Lanyard. Anybody use one of these?

Sandvik 14C28N. I've always liked it. Easily to sharpen. Strong.

The sheath has a dangler attachment that is not on in the pic. The knife has a very nice balance, and the "feel" in my hand is great. Nice palm swell. It has black liners that are well executed. The only thing I cam nitpick on it is, I would have liked them to bookmatch the scales. They are from two different pieces of walnut. But for the price, I'll let that slide. Its a camp knife.

I have seen them in the past , but to be honest I have never had one or know anyone who has one . Let us know impression of how it performs , the handle appears to be comfortable. MG2

You paid 80 bucks for a nice pair of walnut scales and got a blade and leather sheath thrown in for free, too. I think this is a very good deal!

I really like 14c28n. I think I might have to pick one of these up and check it out.

You can get this model with a Scandi grind or a flat.
