      Finally something affordable. Nice testing basically what you might actually do with it. Every day carry. I do use the pouch to carry. But sometimes take the pocket clip off and pocket carry. But the pouch is there so I remember to put it back. Most of the time.

      Exactly. That’s the first thing I saw. It’s a soft 2x4. If she went with the grain it would have gone through in two hits. But that she went against the grain and the knife survived, is impressive.

I ordered two of the QSP fixed blade Canarys, 1 of the Kansept Niko, and I just ordered 2 of these Schrades, 1 of each color. Just wanted to say that I find your work valuable, and actual purchases are happening as a result of your hard work! That hammer test on the OTF ... I was like yup gotta order one ! that was genius !

    I dont understand why someone would put that much value on a factory edge for an EDC pocket knife since you should be sharpening your knife daily to weekly depending how much you use it and what your cutting with it. S334o you only get that factory edge for a short period of time.
