It makes a huge differenceGreat stuff in here, I usually just buy cheap $10 knives that last me about 6 months. Guess it's time to man up and get something really nice and quality.

Welp, I suppose it's time to subscribe. That looks pretty solid. How's the weight?not sure who the manufacturer is... just came in the mail today from the NRA for renewing my membership..
the action is surprisingly smooth.. and it seems pretty well built.. I might actually carry it a bit...
heavier than I though it would be.. I'm guessing the slabs are steel based on the weight..Welp, I suppose it's time to subscribe. That looks pretty solid. How's the weight?
Something I've daydreamed about forever, knife making. That is awesome.This is one I personally made. 1080hc, maple burl scales with brass pins.. one of the nicest I've made... in a cheap Amazon sheath...View attachment 84588
Thanks man, Its really not hard with a couple of the right tools.. but if you do, I suggest spending some extra time making some jigs and guides, or you're gonna have a bad time.. lol I've ruined plenty before getting to that one, and even it has some issues. But its so rewarding, making such an important, almost center piece of gear. I've put that thing through hell, and its taken it all with a smile... If you ever want to get into it, shoot me a msg, maybe I can help...Something I've daydreamed about forever, knife making. That is awesome.
