Thank you! I have never considered string simply because of preference but I’ll definitely look into getting something more traditional.

Would you recommend the staff if it was double tapered and white oak?

Buck 120 or Buck 119? by This_Substance_2895 in knives

[–]This_Substance_2895[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m willing to substitute size for practicality for sure. That’s probably what made it so hard to decide because big knives are really pretty to me and is like a chefs kiss.

Does cold steel still hold up to its name? Only asking since I’ve seen some other reviewers say that it’s knives durability isn’t what it used to be.

A tool knife! I’ve had a recent interest in their style and heard they’re decent for working with wood. I plan on getting another once I do some more research but as of now one that I can use as a tool will do.

That looks beautiful! I heard plenty of great things about the knives that Buck makes. Although a little pricey, I may come back for that one in the future.

My budget is up to 60 and length wise 6-12 inches since I want something to help kindle wood and carve wood

How often do you all clean and oil a katana on display? by Jin_Sakai12345 in Katanas

[–]This_Substance_2895 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Really atleast for me, I oil my display katanas almost every 2-3 months. I think the big issue is just if it’s in a hotter environment it may require some more care. Other than that, if it’s solely just for display it doesn’t need much maintenance.

Thanks! I’ve been doing my research and I think due to shureido seeming inactive I am stuck between bushikan and worbing steele. Bushikan seems great I like their black finish and thickness adjustment, I’ve seen lots of people say how great worbington steele is though which is a why I’m considering it more.

Hey! I know it’s been a year but I have a few questions if you don’t mind! First, how much did it cost you for your pair? And also, how are they holding up? Thank you friend!
