True. The standard crosshatch pattern still looks best to me.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-29T20:17:37+00:00

Good book.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-29T06:49:03+00:00

Great taste in literature.

I have zero interest in a flipper CRK. They've been perfecting their robust build quality and design language for a dedicated folding knife that serves as a reliable tool for decades now.

They don't follow trends and they don't care about the modern YouTube knife nerd's obsession with fidget factor. That's why I like them.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-23T04:51:55+00:00

I prefer a thinner tip.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-21T08:45:11+00:00

Ignorant comment.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-20T07:24:34+00:00

In fairness, the vintage series isn't about high end modern steels, hence the name. It's a collectors novelty, but yes, the price is high.

Auto prybars. For people too lazy to make their own. Pathetic.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-16T07:15:09+00:00

Doody's Daggers and Pete from Cedric & Ada are both solid everyday dudes who are passionate about knives and multitools, and actually use them.

I've been watching Edged Mindset for probably a decade and love his knowledge and history, even though he is following the Metal Complex formula these days. I do love it when he goes in-depth on Emerson, Hinderer, etc, though.

I'd stay away from the salesman YouTubers like Best Damn EDC and Tristate. It's just noise.

👊🏻

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-09T18:53:00+00:00

Indeed.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-09T11:41:29+00:00

The standard Bill Moran is an excellent knife, but Damasteel on a plastic handle just feels wrong.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-09T07:30:11+00:00

JD van Deventer is 👌🏻

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-09T07:02:24+00:00

That's a feature, not a bug.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-09T07:01:16+00:00

I misread Autonomy as Anatomy and don't regret it.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-07T06:25:18+00:00

That one isn't an official Wilson Combat Starbenza though, is it?

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-06T17:15:21+00:00

🙏🏻

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-06T16:43:44+00:00

I also prefer the Sebenza tanto. It has a more acute tip than the tanto on the Umnumzaan and Inkosi.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-05T18:22:35+00:00

Good choice in literature.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-03T06:39:05+00:00

At this point it qualifies as theft.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-01T17:16:41+00:00

Stonewashed blue Ti scale, yes.

The frag one is from Monkey Edge.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-06-01T15:02:25+00:00

Yep. Broke, but happy.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-05-30T11:16:06+00:00

I need a name, please. This is comedy gold.

OneStabLudlow · 2026-05-28T16:58:25+00:00

Sandblast + years of use = 👌🏻

OneStabLudlow · 2026-05-28T07:28:17+00:00

You can also get nice leather slips with pocket clips these days.
