+1 on Knifeworks.com. I got my shipment in just under 2 weeks. Received today. Happy. Surrounded by new stuff.
As ground rules, less than 6 inch blade, no double edges, no automatics, no assisted opening, no balisongs. There are more rules, but you gotta read up on those...
It really depends on what you use your knives for... If its just paper and rope, coated blades are OK. If there's wood or cardboard or tougher material involved, your pretty black blade coating may wear out with use.
My sharpening setup is DMT with the aligner. I can't sharpen free hand for crap so I need a guided system.
bro Frozenboiboi's tastes in knives very expensive. heh heh. Benchmades... waaah.
If you don't mind some suggestions, Kershaw, Spyderco and CRKT make some pretty decent budget "beater" knives.
Don't get Gerber. Lol. It's cheaper, but no point getting 10 lousy knives than 1 good one. For start, u can try spyderco delica or benchmade griptillan.
It's nice to see all the Bros back here. Wondering where hv all of u gone.
Anyway, I've been addicted to Spydercos recently.
This is under the influence of Lonerider Bro. I hv to say the ergonomics of the
Spydies r impressive. I like the VG-10 blades. So dam sharp.
And this is an expensive hobby man. Hahaha...
My next aim is to get a Lansky as recommended by Slayergut Bro.
I wanna learn hw to sharpen.
Next blade quest may be a Benchmade.
Slayergut: care to recommend what to begin with?
I mean nt too ex lah.
me ish peasant, no money buy expensive knives
thinking of buying this 2 knives from knifeworks.com
SOG Access Card
Smith & Wesson Military Police, Gun Metal Aluminum Handle
any comments?
All peasants should have a Svord Peasant Knife. A concept so old, it's new!
Bro kaapuii, you can also consider the DMT diafold magnaguide. I chose it because DMT (allegedly) makes the best diamond plates - correct me if I'm wrong. And you can use water (not oil to lubricate)

Haha easyyy just go to the knifeworks, go benchmade > folders and buy the one you can't take your eyes off. and HOPE it's not gold class or something.
True thing bout spydercos though. Never held one my hand disagrees with. Even the bigger ones are comfy and secure.
For lansky, it's not super versatile especially if you need to sharpen bigger blades.. i used to just take the stone and hone the edges myself LOL.
But for learning about what type of edge u like. its way good
I find the Benchmade like dam ex leh. Bt i don own one so perhaps i can get 1 too. Hope wont stare at the one dat cost me a bomb.
Benchmade from knifeworks is really well priced. U can try benchmade melpardue axis lock. It's a popular lightweight knife from benchmade. For sharpener, i recommend spyderco sharpmaker if u're not so serious into sharpening then u can get those pre-angled pull thru carbide sharpener from benchmade.
Oh i love my spydero warrior! Hehehe
