The beautiful red liners, the strength, the craftsmanship,

this is a very serious knife. People asked why so big and tough. This knife is the one I would have in a survival situation. Tie it to a pole to spear a wild hog , chop down a tree, for shelter purposes, literally dig a hole, the blunt force of this knife alone is comparable To a good carpenters hammer. Drive nails,

In regards to agilty. This knife need some practice, some good wrist strength and coordination. But the razor sharp blade alone makes up for the thickness.

I HAVE TO AGREE with Andy. The sheath is simple yet smooth and also durable as any leather sheath can be. Perfect In my eyes.

Jk I look forward to doing more business. Great job!

That is one serious piece of steel!

Nice job on the pics, just looking at it makes me what to go out and chop something in half.

I don`t remember if I asked or not, but how did you find out about my knives?

 

[GMJOEY]

I started asking around in forums about steel. Of the tooling steels o1 h had the best RWH. 62 65. Then I search on that. You and a few folks came up. I seen the XD and loved it. After you told me your background in manuf. Which I loved. I check ed out the pass around then I was sold. I was looking for a bowie. But became partial to the edc/Bush knives. I think the XD is a taste of both. Next I want a survival kit.

 

[GMJOEY]

Also when I called you and asked you for a gaurd you where honest with me. None else was. They wanted to sell me their c stock

 

[mqqn]

Hey Joey - what have you been using your XD for?
