That thing is cr*p on a cracker.
However, the heat treatment is excellent, or so the info tells us...
As the seller states in the ad, it is a razor/folding knife.
Great way to cover ones behind.Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

Oh dear. Just had a look at the link and reckon I might know who's selling these things. If it is the same person they caused quite a stir a couple years ago in the knife makers community but thats another story for another forum. Avoid avoid avoid...

The guy's got another so called razor/folding knife on the bay. Pretty evident the individual doesn't care about craftsmanship or quality. If they did they wouldn't put a set of piss poor scales on a razor and a crappy pinning job to boot. The blade looks soft from the pictures and probably wouldn't hold an edge very long.

you know if that is Damascus steel i dont know how he is selling his knives so cheap as someone who has forged knives from railroad spikes and files, the amount of work that goes into creating all of those folds and ripples in the steel is astonishing. i have a feeling it is just a chemical etch mixed with oil.

It is like that old Star Trek with the evil Dr. Spock. I wish the doppelgangers of my work had little gotees so they were easier to spot. Originally Posted by Wintchase
