Re: ESEE alternative
Have you tried different scales? Most people say that the factory scales are too big or blocky. Have you looked at Condor or Muela knives? They both make a bushcraft style of knife. I know the knife connection makes some scales that are a half inch longer but that adds to the cost. Might be worth i...

ESEE alternative
One contender is the Boker mini bronco, looks like a cool smaller knife for hiking. I like the ESEE 3 dimensions but the handle has always been small feeling. Any other similar ones people have tried?

Re: Community Sharpening Journal
Interesting comparison and very close up videos of cuts. The grit progression didn’t matter as much. More about getting a correct apex with the coarse stone. Stropping is optional but can be good.

I constantly hear how good their warranty is but have anyone ever used it?

Re: Budget bushcraft knife
Interesting looking knife. I was expecting to see a $16 Mora Companion after reading the title. What kind of steel? Sandvik 12C27. I do love my Mora knives but sometimes I want a full flat rather than a scandi. Handle is very comfortable and more grippy after putting the electric tape on it. Have y...

Re: VG10 HRC
VG10 works well with the sharpmaker too. Touched my up on the 15° angle and takes a nice edge.

Re: VG10 HRC
I should pick up a VG10 Endura. Seems like it would pair well with my Swiss Army knife. Both lightweight but useful for different tasks

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
Another reason to love salts. I by accident set this in some poison ivy (dried leaves and vines) while working in the back yard. Was able to scrub it down with soap and water. I still caught a rash lol

Held up to some batoning some hard wood and was still able to shave thin pieces. The edge feels very thin and sliced through wood like a dream. Sheath is a ni...

Re: EDC Hygiene: Fixed Blade VS. Folder
I use my salt knives for food prep all the time. I don’t use them on super dirty stuff daily anyway and I can always wash them in the sink when done.
I would wager that a fixed blade is better for food prep as it’s easier to clean than a folder.

Re: VG10 HRC
I’ve also noticed that many reviews/channels that are geared towards beginners often say edge retention is the best attribute of steel. I would argue easy of sharpening for the beginner.
