cant decide help!

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 06:55:14 GMT

Ok so ive been looking at chris reeves and stiders for a while now. But i cant choose one. my choices are the mnandi small sebenza and sng. my question to you is: if i buy all three of them keep them for a month or so then pick one. will i lose a ton of money when i sell the other two? it looks like they sell for close to there retail value even if lightly used as long as theres no real wear on them. any opinions? o and another question is this a suicide mission? lol will i be able to sell two?

Bradley knives - Alias Standard

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 04:22:44 GMT

I just ran across these on the net. Bradley knives - Alias Standard. This is a complete rip-off of the Sebenza, the materials are the same even the thumb stud is blue. The biggest difference seems to be the price tag! Are there any real big differences other then maker? I can't afford a Sebenza but this seems like this may fit the bill and I would not feel bad using it. What do you think?

ha...found on the streets of denver

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 03:21:07 GMT

I'm a bartender in Denver and a regular of mine came into the bar yesterday with this. He found it on the sidewalk by a supermarket on the way in (not in the best neighborhood in town). This is a switchblade knife...not an assisted opener. You push a button and the blade pops right out, pretty quickly too. Being knowledgeable in knives he knew it was crap and illegal so he wasn't interested in keeping it. We traded him a couple of beers for it....not that he came to us trying to pawn it onto us. There is so much blade play and it seems so poorly made that I'm weary of even playing with it too much. Don't wanna send the blade flying. Probably gonna get thrown away on the next shift here.

Adjusting blade tension

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 01:08:25 GMT

I just bought a new MOD 875 and the tension is too much to open the blade. I usually loosen the screws the are over the blade,oil or just work with it but nothing is working. What can I do?

Help!!!Emerson cqc 8 vs. BM 710

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:39:43 GMT

Hey guys I am looking for a hard use/back up defensive blade. I have been looking at the Emerson cqc 8 and the benchmade 710. I am leaning towards the Emerson but I LOVE the axis lock. Please if you can give me some of your opinions that would be great, I also am kinda new to knives so if you own one or the other and tell me how you like it. I have the extra $80 for the Emerson so price is of no influence here.

Thanks so much guys.

favorite style at present

Greetings,

It's pretty peculiar how some of you guys are into tactical folders. Some guys and gals prefer the SAK. some dudes pretty much worship Bark River.

Some trooper i can't remember offhand who it is but has a thing for massive knives. (he always has a kick ass pick to go along.)

Some guys bank on Benchmade and others Spyderco.

Some guys are old school and do Case and Rodger and sons and Queen and all sorts a kick butt whittlers, humpbacks, and congresss patterns.

Purpose of the post is to show what i am into and also to know what you guys are into.

sh*(& i can't remember the name of the dude that always shows the huge knives, it's not Sargent but something similar.

Just wanted to know what currently draws you to the blades.

I'll start first. It's a constellation and if anyone else plays i'll show with more detail.

regards,
m.a.d.

Gerber Gator X30V

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 21:56:45 GMT

I just saw that Cabelas is offering the Gator in S30V, and I had a couple of questions for y'all.

1) Is the Gator a full tang? I wouldn't mind putting micarta on it but don't want to fool with it if it's not a full tang

2) Anybody tried Gerber's S30V? Thoughts?

Thanks!
Nick
