DPx H.E.S.T.after first use.

[Tripton]

It's easiest if you Google "sevenedges YouTube" then look under videos there is only two. Took the other ones down. After noon today I'm no longer going to participate in this Thread. It's going nowhere. Thanks guys that helped out. I don't know why the dpx doesn't bend the lock bar over further. Maybe the rotoblock. Later guys.

yes they almost always are fine afterwards. The Hest went through six more 2x4s this morning and the lock is still 100% perfect. Anyone buying this knife will probably need to bend the lock bar inward.

No, you see I have never ruined a folder doing this. Now that I bent the lock bar back where it should be it's fine. Better than new for sure, and there is a lot of lock bar surface left to wear, so it's in great shape. I did say in my first post I was dissapointed, only because knives costing half that much do fine at this. I then changed my mind (everyone is entitled to do that.) I really like this knife now. I am not looking for sympathy. That is way off base. Anyhow spend some time surfing through all the dpx hest/f videos if you want and see what you find. What I did was nothing. Heck, one dude threw his a tree several times, but hey it's his to do so with.

Thanks 5.56 for linking it. I know KuRUpTD was next. Thanks guys.

Thanks Reeek, you were very professional and helpful throughout this thread. I appreciate it. 95% of this thread was from my phone so I didn't see it. I will close it now.

I can't find administrative anywhere.

Awesome.


Batoning with a folder is still a poor choice.

Buzz,

It's been long time

Swamp, if you have any extra CRK folders that you are planning on batonning through some wood, I will take them off your hands for a very low price before they get broken. Just throwing that offer out there

Good luck.

All I have is thread tools and search threads?

I believe only gold membership and above can lock their own threads.

I think this thread has run it's course. So I'll go ahead and lock it for now. If the OP wants it reopened he can touch base with me and I will open it.
