Feel like buying the whole set of fixed blade and folders. (total got 4)
But i think havn't come to S'pore yet lah.
Online also don't have at the moment. Think if buy from the shops here sure kanna overcharged man.
Well, so far the ESEE-4 is the most reliable knife I've used in the field, and really holding up well. Alot of my NS mates got the seal pups but the blade geometry is really not practical for usage.
If you are rambo then probably it might be useful but I'm not and my experience with it has been disappointing.. It might be good as a fighter knife (i wouldn't know since I've never stab anything with it) but for greenwood or deadwood processing, simple is best. Well, the only except ion will be the khurki.
If you really wanna know which is the best knive to use, the machete or parang is honestly the best knife there is. It's the item my detachment will die die indent before outfield.. Even the bengkias use it.
Ok, this I have to ask, why the Seal pup? All the gadget boys I know have one but they never use it so I wonder what's the appeal other than looking like a professional soldier on that SBO with a alicepack/black hawk 3day assualt pack on the back..
Seal pup elite has a pretty thick blade stock, well balanced, easy to sharpen, and it's stainless. Esee 4 has a slightly thicker blade and is heavier, which may be better for some people. However 1095 steel in Singapore isn't a very good idea. People in the states complain about 1095 steel rusting there... what else in Singapore?
However i dun own an Esee knife so i can't really comment about which is better. FYI, i just ordered an izula coz i was attracted to Esee's imba warranty. Lol
Ah, yes I see, your points are precisely why I hate it. I find the balance a little off personally because i get fatigue fast using it, which is why I feel it's more of a fighter knife.. it seems to be balance for that..
Well, rust isn't a problem if you use it.. in fact out in the rain, I've never had rust problems because you're using it all the time there's no chance to rust..
Well, warranty wise, I doubt you'll ever need it.. it's pretty hard to destroy a knife!~

Yea man. Clip point blade shape can't dig well.
Actually i like the Dpx Hest alot, but i don't trust 1095 over here. I hope the izula proves me wrong so i can get the Hest =)
