Thoughts?! Instant buy?

REX121 is new to me, so I’m in, automatically.

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
I'm very interested. Are there any knives currently in REX 121? How does it compare to maxamet?

This was one of the first posts I made here, so to know the steel’s even being tested is exciting. If this knife is made, I promise I will use it to help prepare a Tyrannosaurus rex fossil.
rex121 is the king of steel, but nature’s teeth have been cutting for hundreds of millions of years and counting :cool:

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
There are a few knives in front of it, but there’s a good chance this is my first Sage.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
Same. I like the sage LW but I don’t own one yet as I’ve always thought it a bit small and S30V is not my favourite. Rex121 would be fun to try in a smaller blade.kennethsime wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2024 9:47 pmThere are a few knives in front of it, but there’s a good chance this is my first Sage.

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
Don´t think REX 121 is something I absoutely have to try, but I am honestly glad that burnt orange comes back as a handle color!
I figure for all "REX -steels" - ? (Like previously for REX 45, which I love (and the similar HAP40 of course)

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
No link or reference in the OP, is this something really being offered, if so where? Or is this another "wouldn't it be neat" type thread?

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
Yeah. I will likely buy one to try the steel but I find burnt orange particularly awful as well.
Do right always. It will give you satisfaction in life.

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
I don't have any Sage 5 LW anymore, so it depends on pricing, either way I'm gonna buy the Maxamet or REX121 as soon as one of them is available !
In the collection : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

Re: Sage 5 in REX 121 + burnt orange
It's funny how some (like me) love burnt orange and some almost "hate" it.
Though I am afraid I could be in the minority here and more folks don't like the color than do...

I have no problem with the color , like it on my HAP40 Delica Wharnie. It would be an easy fix if the color did not appeal to me . MG2
