Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades I took just one knife..........

On my last bout of living in Miami, I traveled light. Instead of the usual 6 folders and 3 or 4 fixed blades, I took just one, and a Leatherman.
I did not even take one of the better knives, but a little orange Zancuda frame lock, in AUS8. Dang thing cut everything that needed cutting, stayed razor sharp, and gave no issues.
Maybe I need to rethink this business of having 300 knives around the house.


..........nah,

Hell, I never even leave the house without at least 2 pocketknifes

Sam As you know. A man that has to many knives will always buy another.

Don't let deception get you Sam....you needs choices...:)

Almost started to worry about ya there for a second Sam

I ordered a new trapper from GEC, as I was feeling all out of sorts after that trip last week.

You love those ESEEs dontcha.

You need a set of those in assorted colors.

lol. I have two, one with a black handle, and this one. For the money, they are pretty skookum.

Truth be told - this little story has me checking this little knife out.

Will be another month till I get it, but still...

just bought one off the 'bay. looks good for $30.


knives are like flashlights, never enough of them

word!!!

mine came into today. Nice knife for the cabbage.


I like aus-8 in cheap knives, seems easier to maintain than the 440 that other brands use.

Great little knife. EDC. Thanks.

Funny how when you only carry one knife it works perfectly for whatever tasks you have.

As far as reasonably priced EDC's, my Kershaw oso sweet keeps amazing me for an under $30 knife

All this attention to knives and over-advertising by a member, and I find I have a few, but consider them more of a tool than art. I have a few Kauffman knives which are actually hand made and not blanks with customized handles.

He heat treats, then freezes them, using the best steel available. I asked him to modify one of his designs by adding a larger finger groove and extended hilt. Dave made it that way for me and it works great.

I asked one of the advertisers here about the same option with some insane wood, but was met with little enthusiasm and also find him incapable of a modification due to blanks that are purchased then finished with wood and sharpened.

Anyhow, I won't buy or need any knives from the campfire as Dave has made the few that I need, just the way I like them...

This whole thing on the classifieds and about Vince have gotten out of hand if you got nothing good to say shut your trap, Vince and other knife makers on this forum happen to become good friends and are super honest and hard working fellows trying to make a living and are some of the best in the business at what they do, some really need to get a life, your post is not appreciated coming on the knife forum and advertising your knife then slamming the makers that post here is not cool in my books, for what its worth i like that pattern but not that big ole finger guard it stands out like a big old wart on someone's face.

The mob mentality runs amock on the fire from time to time, even with its eye focused on those that don't deserve it. Some seasoned members of the Fire have been coming up very small.

Yep, not impressed! I guess not enough beatings when a child, you can act big behind a keyboard!

chuck you are indeed a piece of work or fecal material.

Ps to the op nice folder
