It was so nice to see that stonewashed blade on the Ganzo. The action on the QSP Osprey is the same as my Elementum in blue scales with black stonewashed blade...hopefully will get better with time. The new tanto on the Honey Badger looks soo nice...I've never tried to sharpen a tattoo blade so I would probably need to see some instructions on it....and finally the Iron Fly Zesty looks awesome with those micarta scales and superb smooth drop....gonna need to check it out on WMK!

$16 for the Ganzo, cheap enough to buy a bunch for handout to friends that always ask to use your knives and not feel like you gave them a gas station knife. The Zesty has got to be made in the same place they make Ganzo FH series knives. They could put FH-something on the side of it and no one would be the wiser. Nice list. Definitely some bargains there. Thanks.

Thanks Jay. Towser K is impressive. Kizer seems to have the action secret sauce. I am more confident in the consistency of heat treats for Sandvik steels vs D2. Outpost 76 channel has cut tests to prove a lot of D2 is/was mediocre. Good D2 like on the WE617 out performed plenty of S35vn. It’s just harder to nail the HT. I’ve never had bad Sandvik even from budget companies. But I’ve had soft D2 and m390 (Lionsteel) Thanks again mate.

Excellent point Tony. D2 is everywhere now, so unfortunately, we have to sift through the bad to get to the good. I'm a fan of Sandvik too, I wish Kizer would start using it every once in a while.

Funny u mentioned that the QSP has weak detent and how easy u can fail the deployment.

@TheKnifeBeater
2 жыл бұрын
Wow, that's a good question Justin. If nobody else has made a video about it I could do one, but I don't want to make you wait until then. As of today, I like the Towser K slightly more. Here's why: 1. It has a 2 position clip, the Sheepdog does not. 2. The Micarta version of the Towser K has a more comfortable handle. 3. The Sheepdog takes up way more room in pocket. 4. The Towser K gives you the better cutting angle when using it on a flat surface, which means your wrist is in a more natural position. I hope this helps.
