    I love mine. I am a woman with pretty shrimpy hands and the the full size Harsey folder is very comfortable in my hand. It’s a big knife but I can carry it in my pocket when my pockets have a bit of depth (women’s pants pockets are notoriously shallow and next to useless). It’s an awesome knife.

    I really appreciate your reviews and especially cut testing. I’ve been wanting one of these for a while and the cut test put me over the edge. I use my knives. Everybody I’ve talked to had the same experience with customer service that you had. Hate to hear about hot spots but glad to know it up front. Thanks again.

    Beautiful knife and glad to see you using it as intended. Definately a great edc grail knife for me as I don't mind carrying a large knife on me. Definately looks like the heat treat is spot on. Keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.

    I have loved harsey's designs since I was a kid and knew nothing about him. I want one, I was really close to pulling the trigger on the PVD one a couple weeks ago but thought about it too long. I was really surprised how thin behind the edge it is cause my Spartan Pallas was a pig behind the edge till I reprofiled it.

    In my experience S45VN blades perform very well. I have an XM18 a Sebenza and a Harsey all wearing S45VN. Its seems to be much less of a heat treat crapshoot than M390 and 20CV!

    The Astor and Talos are different sizes. I have the Astor and it is a superb knife in every way. Everything you like about the Harsey you will find in the Astor except for the blade steel which is XHP. I THINK SPARTAN makes fantastic knives. When I can afford it I'll be picking up a Harsey.
    From 🇨🇦...stay safe and sharp.

    Listen to what Greg Medford said on his video he recently put out, the one with greg mini rant in the title...The reason why we are seeing these very nice looking knives is because they have the ability to put them out now where as before the military/ government contracts were the main focus of the business.

    I just got the plague doctor special edition harsey folder and I love the size and the detail work is absolutely amazing and beautiful. However; there are a few things I hate about it. The action is not good for a knife that was over $600 it feels very gritty and I’m hoping it will break in. The second thing that drives me nuts is there is not a sharpening choil and the sharpened edge doesn’t go all the way to the end. I know I can add a choil easily with a file, but I feel I shouldn’t have to at that price. Also the acoustics of the knife are not what I was expecting for a knife of that size. When I open mine, it is so quiet and there is not that thwack you normally get when you open a knife. Like on the Koenig Arius one of my fav things about it is the sound it makes when it opens lol

    • @hcavn
      @hcavn 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The lack of a choil and edge not going all the way to the plunge, is defo off putting, doubly so at the price. I have a Harsey Fantoni, it's basically the same.

      They make knives for professional warriors/soldiers so its supposed to be quiet. Yes its not necessarily a combat knife but its in its heritage if you think about it.

    I hve the EXACT Knife, only the Nordic Sailors and Til Valhalla on the other.. I EDC this regularly.!! I try to EDC ALMOST everything I own.. Some are too big / Small . Super Smooth Action as you say... Very Chris Reev'ish! after break in!! I just played w the pivot Screw and dialed it in. Main Pivot is a 15... Funny 6oz is featherwaeight to me, Under 5 and I really begin to not like it.. As Ive said I associate a little Heft with quality.. Obviously, not always the case, but it does have its merits..

    I want to love this knife so much, but there is one small thing wrong with it in my eyes. The jimping combined with the chamfer combined with the internal lockbar relief leaves a surprisingly sharp part of the handle, almost like a serration, right where your ring or pinkie fingers would go. The smaller version of the Harsey doesn't have the same problem, but I ended up selling my large one because of this issue. Gorgeous knife though.
