  • Yes it is common sence which gives it, its strong point in an age when common sence seems to be not so common. Thanks

  • I like you philosophy but it's common sense too

  • @bigdogITbiker

    Ok so would you like a knife with excellent steel and with an excellent grip. My point is that I work hard to get both ellemnts into my knives I work hard to payattention to how my product progesses and am sharing my philosphy on my designs.

    Past cultures have used a variety of things to cut with other than steel the ability to control the edge is universal through out.

  • @DivingSparrow How does the full flat grind compare to a scandi as a bushknife?

  • @milotist Just check my site out and contact me via the email there thanks

  • @theanvilcracks

    I think my point is exactly what you are talking about the idea that the steel is the one most important thing is a mistake various people have been pushing or using as a sales gimmick. Any steel with a good heat treat will serve you well but in fact you can cut with many things in our past it has ranged from metals to volcanic glass. In the end if you can't control the edge the edge is worthless to you.
