Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades That Damn Gene Ingram...

FML, I am getting OLD! When did it go out of style? I missed that memo.

Would like to try something in S90V but for the most part I get by with D2 and S30V!

I have a lifetime plus of S30V knives. Not a big fan of D2 have a handful but both are fine steels and will certainly do the job well.

That is sadly a fact....😎

I’m not hiding the type of steel from anyone... I actually posted it in a previous post with the other specs of the knife and deleted the steel type once I seen you post here... I knew once you were here your arrogant nature would overcome you and you would, as usual, post as if you were the all knowing guru of everything outdoors... it didn’t take long or much to get you there...

The keyboard commando jab was cute but in reality isn’t that what we all are or did you happen to use your Ninja telekinesis to type as you stuck out your ribs to awe us all with your self proclaimed knowledge of all and everything knives... Although heart warming and touching to some I am not impressed in the least... Actually I found it amusing that someone with such great knowledge would be asking questions verses giving answers, then I considered the source and it made perfect sense...

If nothing Ingram interests you, then why are you here in an Ingram thread stomping your feet and holding your breath... If you don’t give a fük what kind of steel it is then why guess out of your ass 4 times at the type... Makes perfect sense...

I told you what it was not... Since nothing can touch Rex 121 and you were informed it was not that steel you simply could have moved on... Rex holds an edge better than any other steel out there... It’s shït for toughness and hard use... it’s lack of corrosion resistance can easily be overcome so that part of it is a non issue...that is a given... but in all your infinite wisdom you knew all this right...

It is a nice knife and thus far the steel is performing great and up to MY expectations... although I haven’t run it head to head with the Havalon yet...

That would require screenshots of materials, stones, lubricants, etc that would be used in said sharpening including charts of speed, sharpening angle and any other pertinent information that you have no fükin clue about thrown in for good measure... maybe hit up the fan club to throw in a “yeah” here and there and get a previous customer to tell what a great job you do...

PM your addy and I’ll add it in my roll-a-dex right between get lost and go fük yourself... 😂😂

I’m off to bed ladies... I have a 3 AM wake up and I still need to get my nails did... you can all go fük yourselves...

Crying laughing at you.

I’m gonna let you win because you can’t be convinced anyone might know something you don’t.

PS come in person and I’ll shave your pussy for ya.

A dear friend loaded this in my holster.





Good night princess. TBC

I don't need a hunting knife to pry or chop. I need it to slice, I am really liking thin, sharp, hard blades. Specially delicate work on fur. Caping eyes, nose, lips thin for the win! Surgoens don't use 1/8" stock to cut you open. Hard use is one thing, abuse is another. I carry a hunting knife and a general purpose knife. If I need to hack something I use the right tool for the job and the general purpose knife, saw, or hatchet come out.

Rex 121 and 15V are great choices in steel for Thin, Sharp, and hard.

Unfortunately for you Fred that’s your only move... I don’t need any convincing... I only post of what I have first hand experience with... you should try it sometime...

I have a feeling that EHG has never had to send off a knife to have someone else 'get it sharp' for him.....

Donny u Screw anyone out of gear lately?

When my knife gets dull I just buy a new one. 😂.
I’ll even put a hot towel on that Koouchy so ya don’t get razor rash my olive skinned queen.
PS just got a new qvc knife collection so you in for a treat.

Pals 🤜🏻


Nothing comes close to a wicked edge.
💄🍆💋

This is a great thread.... you guys are so behind... 1095 is where it's at these days....

I like EHG's style.... hahaha

He’s a good sport. 😁

Wow, this went off the rails sounding like little kids quibbling over who got a new toy and who didn’t.

First, EHG is very squared away and is good to go as is Gene Ingram. Y’all are needlessly getting all wrapped around the axle. Actually, EHG is more than good to go, he is a good man, good as they come. He’s shot more elk in a year than most will in a lifetime, as well as shooting more than elk, which is clear to those that understand. ‘nuff said.

Just a guess that there is a hint to the i.d. of the steel in the very first post for those that would give it a think.

I have come to the point that design is the most important factor both blade geometry and profile as well as comfort in hand, followed by heat treat, followed by steel type.

There was a good thread on bladeforums recently in which someone actually tested a bunch of high end steels in knives from Spyderco, Lion, Benchmade, and others. Despite all the marketing hype, turned out virtually none of the supersteels being sold were
close to optimal heat treat and some high dollar blades just completely were ripping people off.

Arguing over steel only is like arguing about cartridges while ignoring barrels, bullets, brass, scope, and shot placement.

I have way too many knives in some nice steels, S110V, 10V, 3V, M390, and more from top notch makers.

Which knife actually is used the most for cleaning and skinning deer and pigs? An Ingram Bullnose in D2 and a Wilson followed by a big Busse in Infi to lop off ribs and heads. There have been more than a few times of cleaning 5 - 8 or more in a row and went over 30 one weekend.

Differences in knives become very apparent, especially skinning the pigs typically caked in mud.

Gene Ingram and Phil Wilson make excellent quality knives and are my two favorites for hunting knives. There are other good makers. There also are some big names turning out knives that are not very useful at all due to poor designs and make me wonder if they actually ever use their own work in the field.
