Got my first big folder!

HKG36 · Jun 16, 2005

Well after reading ALOT of great things about the Cuda Maxx I decided to get one. Yesterday my Cuda Maxx Bowie folder came in...and wow. Yes I did laugh alittle when I saw it...this is thing is pretty big!

There is ablsolutly NO blade play at ALL. Solid as a rock.
I cant even feel it in my pocket...I forget its even there!

I love this knife. Is there a Cuda Maxx club I could join or something?

These are great knives, I really enjoy mine. Congratulations.

I like mine because even though it's a big blade it's slim enough not to "print" in my pocket.

Glad you're happy with it! They are amazing knives. It does feel like we should have a club, doesn't it?

Check out www.knifekits.com for some deep pocket clips and bronze washers if you want to "upgrade" it a little.

i'll second the deep clip, it both looks better and works better imho,

I already had a BM 630 for a "large" knife, so I opted for the Maxx 7.0 => Can you say overkill? Mine is just as solid as you report yours to be. I prefer the spearpoint blade shape to the Bowie. Haven't seen the dagger version of the 5.5 in the flesh to have an opinion about it.

I just got my Cuda Maxx 7.0, it was waiting for me when I got back from camping. This thing is awesome! Looks nice, solid lockup. Only thing that I noticed is that the blade isnt fully centered when it is closed. Looks like a good knife. I am going to EDC it for a while and see how it performs.

might be the washers but is not the correct clip, it only has 2 holes to attatch it to the knife vs 3, that looks like the std clip to me. it looks a lot diff from those.

Correct washers,but you need to look for the "Designer Fold-Over Clip". It is a D. Ralph design and is the same type of clip found on the early custom Maxx's.
