    strategic placement? big pockets? I used to carry a few of the big stars out deer hunting for rabbits and chickens. a loop on my belt was enough to carry enough... for hunting. shtf... bigger loop! just for shits and grins I threw one through a deer at about 15 feet, yes... through... clean through, and lost the star, but got the deer

    robsdak, i wouldn't bet my life on this either but for a workhorse to best the crap out of i am fine with it. that's why i got so many though. that way i can abuse it and see if i would trust it. sometimes you get lucky with cheap knives and such. i paid 12 for a few machetes and paid 50 for a single one. the cheaper ones are FAR better IMO.

    Not like a conversation in person, with facial expressions, body language, tone of voice.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes

    true... i have knives that are 'worth' $300-$400 and use them, but some of the $30-$100 ones are better. i am hard on cutting edges anyway and i seem to cycle through them, if they don't 'do it' for me i either pass them along to others or sell them. i have a couple favorites that will not change, but also looking at newer and better. but i just can't see spending cashy money on trash. i totally missed what this post was about. it was a 'review'. my bad. and i can't even blame this on the pain meds.

    with some stuff, just doing a lot of research helps. reviews and such but some newer things don't have much info. or are too cheap for people to bother. right now i am trying to fine cheap "combat" style knives for as cheap as possible. i know cheap and reliable don't really go together but i want to get quite a few to keep on hand since i use them so much.

    I don't think we have the same drugs as you do... but I try to find the lighter side in everything life dumps on me, presents me with and anything else... including my own foibles!

    Always smile... it makes people wonder what the fuck you are thinking!
