Fixed blades

Yeah, sad thing is I gave them a chance to make it right. Their quality control is as good as their customer service.

They refused to make that right after you sent pictures? That’s some bullshit right there.

When I saw the first pic I thought “man, that’s a really amateurish looking tang…. but what’s with the proprietary hardware? Who made this shit?”👎

The hardware is not proprietary, just uncommon.

Meaning that if I can’t buy the bit at Ace Hardware, I usually refer to the hardware as proprietary, and I know I’m not alone.

Who just randomly has a bit like that? I know I don’t.

Yeah, sent several pictures and was told it’s within their specs.

Then “their specs” are garbage.

I don’t know when fools will learn that $150 knife they could’ve replaced without incident would have gained them a lot of good will, repeat buys, and new customers…. But instead they stiff ya and would rather take that loss of thousands of potential customers seeing how crappy they are and steering clear.

Bradford must have all the customers they want for now. 🤷‍♂️

Here’s a departure from the usual crap I post. One of those knives you see on Amazon but never pay attention to.. Off Grid Knives Tracker ( the black one ). I figured I’d give one of these a try and I’m pleasantly surprised at its performance. D2 steel, incredible edge geometry and heat treatment seems to be excellent. Out of the box that knife cuts better many knives I own costing 2, 3, 4 and 5 times the price. This isn’t a review but it is definitely positive feedback. If anyone is looking for a decent truck / work / loaner / beater knife.. maybe try one. I’m actually extremely happy with the cutting performance of that knife. I did chop it into quite a bit of knots and a some pressure treated crap furniture wood - no chips or rolls !

*kydex is perfect as well.

Hey Brother, I meant to reply to this the other day but didn't get around to it.

The knife'Tuber "Aaron", over at "Gideon's Tactical", had a lot of good things to say about that particular knife. I enjoy his channel and tend to trust his observations. It looks like a pretty solid performer.



*I know that the L.A. fires have taken a backseat to the current polar storm, and the Inauguration, but hope that you and the pup are well. 🙂

Pet peeve of mine . Most knife guys already have a decent small Torx set . They just work , and probably better than any more "special" type .

Life is complicated enough .

I'm not buying any knife that makes me go looking for ; and have to store , organize and maintain yet another unnecessary tool . :mad:

More common flat or hex or torx is preferred by just about everyone.
