So a while ago I was chasing for some decent information on this knife .. Ans the results were disappointing !
So , here we are and my wallet is some $80 Republic bananas lighter .
Leather Sheath ( Yes , it's leather )
Holds the knife well .. Over all , above average !
Knife .. Bushcrafty 1095 (?) Made in China
It's carbon , I know because it came with free rust !
Spine feels crispy , but it's not crispy enough to scrape wood .
Sprays ferro though . over a wide area ! ( Does that at least )
HRC .... 55HRC file bites HARD ! , 50HRC file skates . So , for me ! On the wrong side of 55HRC ( Soft ) For 1095
Factory edge gave up @ 100 slices .. That's nothing new , a bad factory edge ( or / poor performing )
That factory edge did not impress .. There is FUBAR that can be seen with the naked eye .
The grip is filling , plenty of room for my hand , and should accommodate Medium to large hands .
1st thing I did was put the spine on the bench grinder .. Id like the knife to scrape wood , it's supposedly Bushcrafty ..
Also would be nice if the ferro spray was a little more directional .. ( She said )
Anyways , I will put a fresh guided edge on the knife and then see if we can't crack 100 slices of rope .
