I prefer my ZTs, but like Airkats if I was to drop the coin for a tank/folder.

If I should pay $350 for the tank & lock mechanism plus $100 INFI blade for a folder, I will prefer to stay with my fix INFI & my M1:foot:
I mean that is the story with Lionsteel SR 1, right?:yawn:
...Could somebody interpret this post for me?

I like thin light blades, geared towards slicing/cutting when shopping for a folder. If I want a "tank" I will reach for a fixed blade. I don't see the purpose in overbuilt folders, you still can't pry, chop or baton with them so why lug around the extra weight? I've been carrying a $30.00 slip joint as of late and haven't found the need for anything more substantial... Just my .02

Which part you don't understand? smart fella
Apparently, if he can't get a tank folder with an INFI blade for 450.00 (SR-1 ?), he will stay with his fixed INFI blade and his Garand (M1 ?).
That is my take anyway, it's been awhile since I've been an interpreter so I'm a bit rusty.
The second part. Well, actually the first part too.
Are you saying that you don't want a Busse folder? ...A Lionsteel SR-1 folder? ...Both? Quite honestly, the post has me confused...just sayin'
Well, that's better than what I was thinking...thanxx for taking a shot at it!
Maybe I'm confused because I lucked into the original pre-order price on the SR-1's... Closer to $250-$275 each.![]()
