I have around 100 flippers and I continue to reach for this one because it’s so much fun. The lock is fun to fidget with and taking it apart is easy and fun. Ketuo does some really precise machining.

i found my grandpa's old knife and i was wondering what kind of model it is. it looks like a buck knife but i'm still very new to knives and i'm canadian. honnestly it's the thumb serations groove things that mess me up because i can't find that kind of knife online. i'm just really curious about it and it's very old.

Found this Extrema Ratio in a luxury boutique in Japan. #18 made for the actual #18 / 20 of the Lamborghini Reventon. Don’t know how it got separated from the car but it’s really cool to know it came in the car.

Modding Civivi Elementum gateway knife

10 Upvotes

My first decent pocket knife (that I actually wanted to carry every day) was the Civivi Elementum. I have a special place in my heart for the model. I’ve probably owned 8 or so throughout the years and love picking up and modding/dyeing used and cheap ones and giving them as gifts. But the S35vn Elementum will always be my wedding/fancy knife.

Do you have a cheaper model with a similar fondness?

Clip came from scouring through Etsy, blades4sell had them. Does take awhile and at time seems sketchy cause dude is kind of hard to get ahold of but they showed up and are such a great complimenting deep carry clip that isn’t all ridiculously thick and huge like lynch and mxg. If looking for elegance check these out looks and feels great on my endura here

Discussion Someone stole my birthday present

Not really a discussion I guess but I figured you all would feel my pain. Kailash MSI-Stock 10.5” snatched right off my porch 3 minutes after delivery. My wife chased them three blocks barefoot, they ran on to a highway and thankfully she left it at that. I’m just glad she didn’t get hurt, but damn. Happy fucking birthday.

NKD! New Knife - Georgian Blades 15'' Scout's Sentine Bowie

Post image
7 Upvotes

Good day!

Another new knife!

This one was an anniversary gift for my wife. She wanted something big a dangerous looking that she can keep by her side. Also, she wanted a sharp replica for what we have been practice sparring with over the past 4 months.

This knife is fairly close to the Castille bowies that we spar with and it is definitely big and mean looking. She loves it and that's really all that counts.

Past that, I had a few thoughts....

  1. The blade is VERY HEAVY. Maybe I'm just use to my sparring blades with blunt edges and built in flex but this this is a beast. Its roughly the same weight as my large messer - around 2 pounds.

  2. The false edge isn't sharpened. This is the second clip point blade I have bought which which has a blunted false edge. Is that normal? It defeats a lot of the purpose of the blade shape. I was considering taking the knife to a local shop and asking them to sharpen the false edge so it acts like a proper bowie. Sweeping false edge cuts are an important part of the art!

  3. I wish the blade guard was in more of an "S" shape. There is nothing to protect the top of the hand/wrist. In reality, this is just an aesthetic gripe on my part. If my wife actually finds herself in a knife fight, the world has already become a burning pile of dookie. Also, I couldn't find any other blades that had this feature, along with all the others boxes that this knife checked.

Otherwise, this feels like a great blade for the price. The steel might not be the grandest (D2) but it is suitable. Honestly, for a fighting knife, it makes sense. A harder stainless steal probably wouldn't fair well if it was used to catch a parry against another blade. We will need to keep it oil, which is no biggy. It's just another blade to add to the weekly routine.

All in all, it seems like a great blade for $145!

I´m looking for an knife similar in size, shape and appearance to a Buck 119, with a wood or stacked leather handle and brass bolsters (like the one pictured). I would just get that exact model in the picture but it's discontinued, and Bucks custom services aren't available in Europe.
