Blade-Tech PH Magnum folder: Top Shelf Tactical Hunter

While 5.0 oz in weight, the Pro Hunter Magnum by Blade-Tech is a well-made and strong knife. For that weight though you will get a top-of-the-line offering, available in three different handle colors. This OD color is a favorite and helps dress out this tactical and hunting blade. The Pro Hunter also has an almost ideal shaped S30V blade (also incredibly thick at 5/32") that should handle EDC, skinning, and even defensive cutting tasks with aplomb. Other positive features of the PH include an attractive ScotchBrite finish, full flat grind, purposefully checkered G10 handles, a fast deployment on phosphor bushings, a wiggle-free lockup, a reversible pocket clip, and outstanding jimping throughout. Downsides would include the weight (of course... needs to have skeletonized liners), an overly large and bright stainless pocket clip, and a handle that somewhat blocks the deployment hole making a firm thumb "dig" necessary to flip the blade. But in most respects the PH is a good looking, strong tactical or hunting folder. At this price point we do expect a top notch knife and indeed the PH Magnum does deliver on most accounts.
*** Big thanks goes to Blade-Tech who graciously provided me these blades to review. Thank them if you get a chance.

Actually way more than a "few" jobs too.....

Yeah sure, It could be made in China. It would just put someone out of work at Blade-Tech, but YOU could save a few bucks.

likeability scale?

[SuperRip7]

Definately not a EDC knife.

[newcoyote]

Is it just me or is this knife very similar to the spyderco ocelot?

[quicktoevil]

@nutnfancy quite right. 

[nutnfancy]

@quicktoevil Doesn't seem so hard to believe. You yourself have subbed and have one of his videos favorited. If you don't like..walk away, easy solution. -- Veri

The jimping on the top part of the blade are used for your two fingers so you can use two hands to skin.
