Years ago I was gifted a basic pocket knife that folds but I believe it's time to upgrade. Check out this Smith & Wesson.

TBH its a bottom of the barrel folding knife. They sell them at walmart for like 6 bucks. I got one back when i was 15 and thought it would be good because of the brand. It wasnt. Just like the Winchester bowie knives, they look cool but kinda suck as a knife. --- https://i.imgur.com/EX6Md7k.gif https://i.imgur.com/ygAzHKB.mp4 https://i.imgur.com/c84omp7.gif https://i.imgur.com/Hj9RrC6.mp4 ...

What duran said. I've watched most of forged in fire and I've learned a bunch of cool shit about the process. I don't think I would personally want to try it myself though. I don't do well when it comes to hot temperatures and I would likely carelessly burn myself a lot. There are a lot of different kinds of steel and various techniques, like san mai and all kinds of damascus patterns. They make some pretty interesting weapons for the final challenges tol, even stuff like crossbows and all kinds of exotic blades from all over the world, sometimes recreations of historical weapons too like george washington and william wallace's swords. --- Always check timestamps... ...

LordDemonWolf 04/19/22 8:48:04 PM #26: |
The cryo is a decent choice. You should also figure out how big of a blade you want. How big is the one you have now? Do you like it? Is it easy to use? Is it awkward? What do you like about it and what don't you like about it? Do you like the weight on your knife? Do you like how it locks? Is it easy to open/close? I ended up loving the 3" blades. Any bigger and it starts to feel unwieldy. I would also go with something at least d2. But yeah, knifecenter and bladhq have lot of options you can sort by, price, length, material. I started out cheapies, and kept trying stuff until I found what I like. I lean towards spyderco, but, they are a bit pricey. Some of the lightweights are decent. Steel will has a lot of budget knives. https://www.knifecenter.com/item/SMGF2511/steel-will-modus-f25-11-flipper-folding-knife-d2-plain-blade-black-frn-handles-blue-backspacer I bought a larger version of this pilar, but d2.

The reviews are pretty good too. Same with bladehq, they have like, best budget options, favorites, etc.. My current carries are https://www.bladehq.com/item--Spyderco-Para-3-Compression-Lock--106187 and https://www.bladehq.com/item--Spyderco-Sage-5-Lightweight--137711 The size is nice, the ergonomics are great, and I dont like liner locks or frame locks. https://youtu.be/995i76Y-Uw0 https://youtu.be/9SpFDNxbR9g Just to start. --- What is life, except/ Excuse for death, or death but/ An escape from life? ...

I was just looking at those and didn't know if theyd be in your wheelhouse. The rat 2 is 3", and the original rat is 3.6." I know the original rats have the half serrated blade, which you seem to like, and the rat 2 does not.

Part of modern knife collecting is based on aesthetic design, the other is on metallurgy, machining quality, & feature set. It's almost becoming like the car industry where aesthetic design has become a huge driver of why you buy said model. Solid Knife Designs & Blade Geometry is largely a known factor; so those who want to buy based on those principles can go ahead and do so. Some people buy on looks & aesthetic design before comparing other more practical factors like blade metallurgy, machining quality, lock up mechanism functionality & durability, etc. --- Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico' ...
