They're discontinued now (for God knows what reason why), but I bought two of these Buck 110 knives with the micarta and S30V steel and the BOS heat treat for under $100 each and I love these little fuckers more than you would fucking believe. They've taken an absolute beating. Just wash them off with soap and water. Made in America. Forever warranty. I genuinely don't know why Buck discontinued them as they should be the most popular knives on the planet. My guess is they came out with them during the big Benchmade explosion and people wanted whatever was new, rather than a classic, traditional, American knife. It just baffles me. They're fucking awesome.

unless their heat treatment is some kinda black magic like tops or BOS, its pretty fuckin overpriced. if its dead straight and the grind is symmetrical to the eye, And the heat treat is as good as those mentioned, subjectively, it might be worth 200 at most imo

a lot of states and more cities have laws or ordinances against carrying fixed blades, it varies on length and whether or not youre open or concealed carrying. usually anything over 3 or 4 inches is b&, anything with a double edge or dagger profile is b&, some places (Texas and Tennessee(?maybe?)) outright ban carrying a "bowie knife"
>>
>>62753669
>>62753690
the problem is more, like many gay and unconstitutional laws, that theyre "laws" that are less actual laws and more tack on charges or things for asshole cops to hit a quota with, SWIM has very obviously ignored these ordinances and laws in full view of law enforcement just grocery shopping or getting coffee in the same queue as the cops, and never gotten more than a slow double take and a nod.
Problem being, is its psychological lawfare, you hear this this that and this are all technically illegal, but as long as youre cool and not a criminal, it matters as much as doing 5 over the speed limit

Pocket knife is more comfortable to carry, still cuts. Carrying fixed in city or in office is just not the best idea.

>rather than a classic, traditional, American knife. It just baffles me
I think the problem is that particular model exists in a strange space that appeals to few people. It doesn't look like a traditional wood-and-brass Buck knife so it doesn't have the classic appeal. But at the same time it's not going to be very interesting to someone who may not care about the Buck brand and just wants a "tactical" style knife.

Finally gave in and bought a Walmart Ozark Trail Bugout clone. I got it for $9.97 (for free shipping just add something else to make it over $35 and then cancel the second item). I am VERY impressed. It feels solid, it came very sharp and only has the slightest of blade play. I'm interested to see how well the D2 holds up, but I can't imagine you can get a better folder for cheaper. I'd say it's the Mora of folders.

This fake Bugout came with a lot of packaging to look legit. The second you handle the knife though it's pretty clear that it's cheap.

Last Christmas my boss got it as a gift. He was talking about it and when he saw that I recognized the brand and I was telling him how nice of a gift it is he was like "here, you have it. It will probably just live in my drawer anyway". I was so excited until I got home and realized it was fake LOL. I never told him

distal taper still exists on knifes. that barstock prybar is not going to have the same handling characteristics as a real example of that knife type.
if you like barstock prybars good for you but they arent the same thing as actual knives even if they look like it.

>distal taper still exists on knifes
It doesn't on puukkos. High end ones you might find interesting geometry like rhomboid blade profiles, but I've never seen one with any real meaningful distal taper.

For starters they're not super thick barstock prybars to begin with. They're not heavy duty meme bushcraft knives. Even my huge 9" blade samekniv has no distal taper at all, because the blade is too thin to have any.

>ts a barstock slab imitating the form but not function.
You might want to sit down before you hear this, but the wood jewel knife has a thicker blade. That one's 3.3mm. It has no distal taper.

You have no idea what you're whining about. Just say "I don't like the way that knife looks" already instead of dragging this out making up more random excuses that also turn out to be wrong. Your issue is entirely with the form and not the function, since you are not familiar with the function of either knife.

Clown.
>>
>>62757036
While it is a deviation from puuko norms, that it has a full tang doesn't in and of itself tell us anything about the blade&tang thickness (which is apparently 3mm, hardly massive), and it's a very different issue from the presence or absence of distal taper. Overall it sounds like you saw someone use "bar stock" as an insult (probably when talking about a sword), and now you're just throwing it around simply because you think it sounds cool with no thought given to whether or not it's actually a valid complaint.
Moral of the story: just because there are valid criticisms of something, doesn't make every possible criticism of it valid.
>>
>>62757085
if you saw that condor knife without the context of us arguing about it you wouldnt classify it as a puuko.

I don't care about that. That's not what I'm arguing about or why I'm here. I'm only here talking to you because you were talking about "the taper" puukko's supposedly have.

To recap:
>distal taper
Is literally not a thing on puukkos in general, if they were that thick in the first place they would be chisels, not knives
>barstock prybar with poor handling
is not a factor since it's thinner than the finnish knife you were comparing to
>it looks ugly and I don't like it
you should have just said that instead of trying to make things up about puukkos and that knife.
>it's not a puukko!
The blade is typical of a puukko, which is where you started off whining. The grip definitely isn't traditional, but neither is rubber/plastic yet pic related is a puukko.

There are other curved daggers that are openly carried in that way. The firearms appear to be muzzleloading pistols, but a sawed off 12 gauge is also suitable as a belt gun or sidearm. This weapon is a staple of the American outlaw and can pretty much delete any problem in your immediate range in short order, much like a self defense dagger.

Brands have different levels of expected quality, this generally mean little nowadays because of corpo buyouts and chink mfg, but theres still places like Buck that explicitly state on some models that the heat treatment was done by the best, best known mass production heat treat company doin it. But all that means is BOS marked BLADES from Buck are gonna be good, you could still get something thats not quite to spec and could warrant a warranty replacement

Cost is determined by (shock) economics of the manufacturing. that means materials, heat treat, muh fit n fininsh. some shit, like the ti-lite and microtech, get the meme tax.

Ozzie? Are you using it for hog hunting? If you can just get a Cold Steel SRK. You lose the rear quillon, blood grooves, double blade and a hair of length (what is it with .au sites not listing blade length?) but get an improvement over 440.
Buck 119 is always good. Look at the 105 as well.
There is always the Kabar 1211/1212 or 1217/1218 (latter or each group is partially serrated) and OKC SP-1
Ontario RAT6 or 7 (think they recently were bought and closed though) or ESEE 6 for a bit more.

I don’t like traditional puukko knives as they usually lack any type of finger guard.

It's not that bad. Don't leave it wet, wipe it off after cutting, and clean the blade with water then dry it if you're using it near salt or cutting acidic things.

It can help to force a patina, you can do this by wrapping a paper towel soaked in vinegar around the blade for a few minutes. Then rinse it off with water, dry completely, and oil it.
>>62761817
I love birch bark, I have that same knife with a different handle. It does have a bit of a secondary bevel, which I'm not a huge fan of, but it's still nice.

How do you fuc/k/ers store your knives? A couple always find their way under my bed or on the floor and I'm getting tired of not knowing where one or two of my knives are for days at a time. Small to medium folders fit in a Super Stacker #61613 3x5 but I collect a lot of hunting knives. I haven't found a good box that'll fit most hunting knives; maybe I'll have to buy a couple of the pencil cases or something. For now I've stuck them in an old M16 magazine pouch but they stick out a lot.

Was antique hunting and found this cool knife from Denmark around the mid-late 19th century. Looks like a carved bone or antler grip. Like puukko knife. Friend has it now in EU land and is shipping it to me soon thanks to gay ass Danish export laws. Has a weird detailed brass thing on the other side. Did I get ripped off or is this legit or what? Only about 100 bucks.

Not very I guess, but it's not the kind of knife you're gonna stab with
still want to close it slowly otherwise it'll flatten the edge

Same issue in Vendedouk. But regular Douk Douk is just fine with fast closing.

It has bearings, so they flip quite fast, not really a beginner’s knife. Or also get a cheap Boker butterfly trainer along with it.

>>62768516
Why would you want a heavier, drop forged knife? Also get yourself something full-tang and with a convex edge.
>>
>>62768516
52100 is slightly better steel, but I don't know if it's enough to matter over other differences like weight or ergonomics.
>>
>>62768419
That's it. A bunch of us own them. It's a good solid knife.
That price is high though, equivalent to $72 USD. I paid $45 with free shipping and a free Trail Boss hatchet from Midway.

Defiantly a unique knife but a little rough for a hundred. Fix it up and restore it then post it. More a worth is in the mind of the owner knife.

The fuck do you mean "make" it's a piece of string, what the fuck is wrong with you

>>62769683
Oh yeah for sure, I am almost considering, if the blade sucks, to just see if I can get it rebladed entirely. It's mostly the personalized carved grip I love about it. Looks like bone and I'm not gonna say anything else because you even think about other materials and customs will be so far up your ass they'll find Atlantis.

Why do you even want a lanyard if you don't know what you're going to use it for? Start there.

I use mine to pull my knife out of my pocket when my gloves are covered in dirt or mud and I don't feel like smearing that into my pockets.

afaik there's only one original and it's in Gabe Newell's collection. some people have made replicas themselves https://guns.allzip.org/topic/97/1314934.html but the only replica you can buy is the one from knify.gg in 3cr13 steel. so not intended for heavy use from steel type alone, but I've handled other knify stuff and it at least feels solid. sadly the black variant (pic related) that's closest to the in game look, is usually sold out and only stuff like the tiger tooth, rainbow fade or slaughter skin is available. gee, I wonder why

if you need affirmation to buy a piece of string and don't even know what you're going to use it for, so you don't know what kind of string you want, I can't help you.

No, lanyards don't make your knife look cooler. Since that's what you were really asking.
