I really love their design, and by reading all those positive feedbacks, I narrowed it down to two knives.

Fulcrum, the full size, or Fulcrum S, the smaller.

I dont see much of differents between the prices of it, but the site I originally chose to buy did not have the fullsize.

www.davesknifeworld.com had the full size, but Im not sure if I should just go with smaller on at xtremeknives.

if you do know how authentic davesknifeworld is, or which one of two knives are better.
 
I don't really know the knife but I do know davesknifeworld...he probably don't have the knife in stock. When you'll buy it he'll order it from the cie then ship it to you pretexting it was in one of his other warehouse...each time I bought from him it was the same story. Still I got the knives but way later than expected.
 
Oh, then the problem solved.
Ill get it from xtremeknives, the smaller one.
I dont think I need such a big blade anyway, even its only 3cm shorter
read many feedbacks, plus fast shipping, so Ill get it.
thanks for the info Treg.
 
yeah xtremeknives is the place I am going to buy my fulcrum s. I hope the money saves up this month for it. it will be my first ER knife, or even first fixed.

I was originally looking at RAO but gave a thumb down, only because I wanted little more slim looking knife, but that can still hold onto weight.

I came up with strider BT SS GG but nah, didnt think 400 wasnt it. even though the fulcrum s is 325, rather save 75 and get a knife I think that can handle as much as the strider.

I dont know, if somebody can tell me which one's better. both american tanto style, but strider has no serration on the blade, but it do have spine serration, which I find very useful, more then the small serration if it were to be a situation where the small ones wont give an effect on.

I dont know, still on the edge. If no one got the answer, might as well go up with what I like. this part, seems like extrema ratio wins. but you dont know, a person's decision can be weak as a twig.
 
i have had a couple of ER's thru the yrs, MPC's, a nemisis, and a fulcrum tanto, all great knives, that said wow they have gone up a bit in the last few yrs, IIRC the ones i had were in the $250 or so range, the nemisis was $300 IIRC, maybe a bit less, thats a lot for them now but they are good knives, wow i'm getting sticker shock and i never do that lol, i suppose they are worth it but man thats right on the ragged edge of them being worth it, imho anyway, and only then if ya really needed a big heavy duty folder like that, and i do mean need it..
