fixed blade perfection ?

I bought a D.H.Russell/Grohmann 'Canadian Boat Knife' from the A.G.Russell (no relation) catalog complete with engraved initials back in '78-9 when I was in Scouts. It worked well as an all 'round straight utility, either riding on my belt in its quality deep ride dangler sheath, or in a pack pocket. Sometime in the late '80s the leather lanyard dissolved, and the handle scales have shrunk slightly over the years, but it wears its 'battle scars' well, and I wouldn't hesitate to rely on it today. Even the leather sheath has held up really well over the years, including a couple canoe trip dunkings and the baking oven effects of auto trunk storage. Reading the link to the article aboot Canadian politico stooges falling for the easy candy of a Chinese business bribery faction made me sad. I wonder if there was any testing done or if it was just ordered from the supply 'experts'. My guess is that the Sino-Canadian Grohmann knockoff is a bit less 'gumball machine' than the CRKT, but I've never seen one. I'm sure the CRKT serves its price point well, and with those wicked Veff serrations it will shred its way through lots of stuff, and be long forgotten by many owners after just a short time.
 
wow really? dont you have something better to do then troll all of my posts get lost If you were twice as smart, you'd still be stupid, also I would ask how old you are, but I know you can't count that high.

Well, I'm glad thst the last 48 hours have proven it to be a perfect addition to your 5 piece EDC box cutting setup! Thats quite a testimonial about all the Canadian Navy carrying these 10 buck knives in custom leather sheathes. Do they do a lot of box cutting? You think leather and salt water would be a bad combination. Regardless, thats quite a selling point. Did you know about this before or after you bought the knife a couple days ago?

I believe that comment was uncalled for and you may just get an infraction for it. I simply gave my opinion of the knife that you think is so great. Age has nothing to do with it. Experience does.

Why do you delete your posts? Are you ashamed of what you said in haste? It doesn't matter if we see them; the mods will. The only thing I don't understand is why your rude responses and trolling haven't gotten you at least a temporary ban already. But hey, that's just my opinion. I understand you may feel provoked by some comments (if you are making serious posts). In that case, just ignore whatever is ticking you off. You're only digging a hole for yourself with the volatile responses.

Some were those software double posts. They get us all at times.

Ah, I get more of the "delete my entire thought process at a moment's notice" errors. :/


As to the knife, I don't fancy serrations on a fixed blade. Also, I can think of other fixed blades like Condor or Mora that work much better for the price range. But if you like it, be happy.
 
Phil's back. HAPPY HAPPY :D

I get the message that I can't do two posts within 60 seconds and that seems to keep me from the double posts. Dang computers!

I don't fancy serrations unless they are along the entire length of the blade. Have quite a few vics in my kitchen.
 
Really mean, as in mean-spirited. You want to poke newbies, go live in Whine & Cheese. I see you messing with him again like this, red cards will be flying.

Address the topic, not the person, in General Knife Discussion. knives4ever, do not react or reply to these trolls. marcinek, you really should know better, you just trashed this thread.

Closed.
