What I USE to like about Schrade was they were a great American company that made great classic blades in America particularly, for me, the Old Timer line of which I have several vintage folders and fixed blades. But that was then, this is now and basically the name was bought and used for a foreign product. Some designs remain but they're not the same.

This thing is just big and ugly with a ridiculous handle that's about as big as the blade itself. I do really like the schf42 and won't knock anyone for owning one, but I'll stick with the BK16 in that regard...

If you're reviewing a prototype that you designed yourself, why wouldn't you already have the specs? ie weight and thickness... That really adds to scepticisms and validity of a review not to mention a "designer"...
 
Form and function BUT also how a knife looks comes into play when buying a new tool.

It looks ugly and from what i can see the link between some You Tubers & companys is the free shit benefit, marketing urgh.

I can tell you this, as a youtuber I never ask for freebies. My policy is that I will review a product if asked to, or I've purchased it myself, and if I want to keep said product I will pay for it. If I don't want it I will send it back. I'm not out for free stuff. I would rather the person/company make money than ask for something free. I am only asking CT/Schrade because that is what he does to the companies that make the products he reviews.
 
Why is this in BK&T? IMO OP should have his BH # revoked.;) Who gives a s#$% about schrade knives here? Anybody? Not I. I wouldn't use a schrade knife if my life depended on it. No thanks. Nothing about this schrade or any other schrade I'd want. I'd bet even though they use 1095 it wouldn't have as good a heat treat as Kabar's have. I've seen that with other knives. Same steels used but not the same result in quality. Also hate everything else about the design of this knife. Mallninja/zombie huntery/ bad grind/hate the handle shape/ect. Agree with Dex and Chameleonbear. Don't like prepperedmind or schrade. This really shouldn't have been posted here.

3) we're not just becker nuts, we're knife nuts, and there is some history

4) your opinion is noted, but since you haven't used the knife, perhaps you should have background filler for us? :D

5) don't much care what you like, but that's your opinion

6) see above, open forum for discussion with becker heads

7) wtf are those rabbits? ;) i'm going to have nightmares now. thaks!
