Carbon fiber

huugh · Sep 15, 2006

Can you suggest production folders witch carbon fiber handles (other from Spyderco CF Military)? Clip, lock and thumbstud/hole are required

(and it should be in production, so no CF Police, Delica etc.)

I know there are CF Lone Wolf T1 and CRKT M16(21?)
CRKT uses poor steel (AUS6) and Lone Wolf is said to have issues with quality.
(Also Spyderco Harpy but I am not too keen in hawkbills.)
Another conclusions?

Second question: would you like to see more carbon fiber folders? (I definitely would)

EDIT: Oh, and I forgot - price under $180.

I'm pretty sure Klotzli makes some Carbon Fibre knives. The Sailor comes in CF, and I think it's around $200 in price.

I believe tha WH makes knives w/ CF handles.

The only M-16 I could find in carbon fiber uses AUS-118. Only their lower end models use AUS-6, most use AUS-8.

Will look on them but they seem to be pretty hard to find (and pricey too)

Either they don't lock or are over my price range. (atleast those I am aware of)

Thanks for suggestion.
(it is awfully small, isn't it?

)

Oh yeah, the Blade-Tech Mouse, with CF & S30V! I had totaly forgotten about that.

Sounds like your requirements are fully met by the Spyderco Military, why are you not considering it? I'm curious as I really want one, but prefer combo edge. Very nice knife and if you look around they are in your price range. They are advertised as limited production but there are a lot of them out there to be considered rare to me. Very nice knife tho, just wish they would make a CE.

How about the Blade-Tech Pro Hunter Extreme or the Micro-Tech LCC
Neither of those would be considered small, and you can probably just squeeze them under your price limit. Might consider buying one pre-owned.

There is also the Spyderco Delica in CF that can still be found from time to time.

That's why.

Are there versions of Bladetech and the LCC from CF?

As for CF delica - I don't have paypal so no Ebaying/forum purchases for me.

qwikkota · Sep 18, 2006

B/C you already have one? Ah, that makes more sense now, lol. Carry on!

If you have a credit card, you can pay for ebay items through PayPal without creating a PayPal account.

That's first time I hear it.

I know I can use credit (actually debit, but it doesn't matter) card to send the money to paypal who pays to seller BUT still your card is binded with the Paypal (you still have to somehow register it on paypal), isn't it?

It can chip away. But as I have no use for hammer made of carbon fiber I don't mind

You may want to check out the Blade-Tech PH Carbon Fiber. I have used it for an EDC and love it. I do work for Blade-Tech though!

Sorry for the late reply. PayPal in fact answers the question: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/w...740&unique_id=1030080&source_page=_home&flow= (Non-US answer here: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/w...c=659&unique_id=62055&source_page=_home&flow= )

Do I need a PayPal account to pay for an eBay item?

No. For a limited number of times, you can use a credit card to purchase the item. However, you are given the option to sign up for a PayPal account after the checkout process.
