Tired of seeing cheap fragile pieces of crap in peoples prep/EDC/defence or w/e. Stainless steel pieces of paperweight crap they sell for a couple bucks. This is a Schrade Frontier 36, 40 quid UK so like, maybe 50 bucks USA or less, it is affordable, efficient & durable.
- 5mil blade thickness, tip ain't to narrow a taper either, making it good for prying - 1095 high carbon, not the best not the worst, for the price though it is good, it will certainly last you as long as you take care of it, remember to oil your carbon blades - Overall sturdy construction, practical blade design, good gimping and finger choil for grip and blade control
That is pure semantics, the blade is good for certain things and not for others, if you wanted to slice things up, you would use a thinner blade, that'as why kitchen knives have thin blades, so clearly this was not designed with the primary purpose of cutting up veg or w/e it is you were doing. Com on man, don't be a noob about knives, git gud and learn the fine points.

I have a brand new Cold Steel GI Tanto. Am I gonna survive?
@_@ well, no points for style or design consideration, but there is one positive trait that particular blade has, it is actually fairly indestructible, youtube search the knife destruction test guy, it holds up surprisingly well.

here are a few of my knives. among them you'll see your POS.
its trash compared to the other two fixed blades and most of the folders.
Fairly decent selection of brands there, well played Sir, I was almost afraid I'd see a spyderco or god forbid a gerber among those folders.

If you have a lighter and a knife you can survive anything. I’d even prefer the lighter over a knife because starting a fire is more important and harder to do than cutting something.
Since when could we not own knives, machete's, axes, crossbows, swords, maces, pretty much any hand weapon is perfectly legal to own in the UK. The idea that we can't even legally own knives etc is literally a meme.

if i wasn't user i would take that personally wouldn't be caught dead with em. i have more just cant be bothered to find them. my good fixed blades are tucked away for hunting season.
You people have poor taste. The least you should do is esee. But really for a do it all knife you should be trying to get ahold of a knife by Nathan Carothers. Bradford in 3V or 4V/Vanadis 4E would also be great.
Don't waste your time with buck or gerber. Schrade has one or two good budget fixed blades. For a good budget folder get an Ontario Rat and don't look back. Anything above that is just wasting money. Sure, higher priced stuff will have higher priced materials, but quality isn't going to get much better and it's actually on par with knives that cost significantly more. I do carry a an M4 PM2 everyday, though. Let's see if anyone here actually knows knives.
fuck off limey you've probably never held a knife in your life
a stainless steal beater knife is invaluable. You want multiple piece of crap beater knives you can abuse and don't care if they chip or snap. Have 1 good carbon steel, 1 good stainless steal, and a bunch of beaters

You know Benchmade is anti-2nd amendment, right?

KA-BAR is a reliable brand, you might like to look into BK&T it's becker & KA-BAR doing a double act. A good double act.

I have a Bark River Bravo 1 that has lasted me years. Very strong knife.
Jace Cook
Condor Jungle Bowie is my go to corona zombie looter stabber.
Failkniven F1 is my make a fire in the woods knoife.
people shit on tantos but I like them. I have an 8 inch kabar tanto. The back of the blade is wide AF, great for smacking with a log if you're trying to split wood or something. The blade is also very narrow, perfect for stabbing though I bought it mainly as a survival type knife

>Pom giving us advice on how to survive?
Nigger Muslims are raping your kids and you have police arresting you for posts on social media. You are the last people I would take advice from. Go roll over for your tyrannical government and your Muslim over lords.

Thats where the bushcraft skills come in. Light some birch bark quickly and you have a match. Bury coals in ash and put punky wood on the fire. Never have to use lighter again assuming you can keep some coals.
Only a total ingrate thinks a knife is a knife. There is a reason professionals purchase quality tools, and there is a good reason for wanting to own and use quality tools if you are going to own and use tools. If you do not believe in owning something well made and just always buy the cheapest piece of shit you can, you are not a very forward thinking organism.
Nathaniel Green
I've got a barn full of agricultural tools. Do I really know about the knife company you invested in?

Yeah that's good advice, the annoying part about the UK is because there is less of a blade industry over here, due to supply/demand, we are far more limited in brand and models.
Mason Clark
tanto is good till the angle of the edge dulls which it will quickly then you ruin the tanto shape by sharpening (over time) unless your real careful. same with serrations at least you can sharpen those from the back side easily if your lazy and dont want to make passes in each serration groove. that being said tanto is better when dull same with serrations.
can never go wrong with KAbar IMO
Blake Edwards
They're literally designed for stabbing so I don't get the crap they get either.

What's the best knife on the table and why is it the KA-BAR Becker BK2?
Germany was ahead of its time, truly the BBC of knives.
Kevin Sullivan
You're not carrying a fucking plow on you everyday, buckwheat, but sure, it pays to have good equipment no matter where it's stored at. But paying $300 for an outstanding knife is a lot more realistic than paying $1,000,000 for an outstanding combine.
Xavier Cruz
Riot shield + Boar spear + Cold Steel gladius, plus I actually was taught medieval martial arts, so I am more a danger to someone else than myself when using a hand weapon, Come at me bro.

>BK&T You mean like the Becker Tac Bar with Micarta handle? Sorry for the shitty photo :D
