Hutton's Edge knives

Josh K said:
Yeah, blow me away with the absurdity.
Absurdity of what, Josh? Are you old enough to be using a computer? Why are you so frightened and intimidated by this knife? I'll bet if you saw this knife at a show with Dr. Hutton standing there, you wouldn't even stop and say anything about the knife. You'd just go home to your abusive girlfriend/boyfriend and blog about it.




Really?

  • Chris Reeve Knives
  • Hinderer
  • Spyderco (some models)
  • Benchmade (some models)
  • Kershaw (some models)
  • Case (some models? most models?)
  • Buck (most models)

Once again, Joshua...check your information....Wikipedia is easy to use even for small minded people....
"Kershaw Knives is a multinational corporation that designs and manufactures a range of knives, including kitchen cutlery, pocket knives, and outdoor knives. Currently owned by the Japanese KAI Group, Kershaw is headquartered in Tualatin, Oregon, United States."
"Most of Spyderco knives production is outsourced to foreign contractors such as Japan, Taiwan, Italy, China, and Germany.[12] Knives made with CPM S30V steel were previously all made in Golden, Colorado, USA, however Spyderco has recently began shipping CPM-S30V to Taiwan to have knives produced there using this steel." Get your information right before pretending you know what you're talking about. You just look like a fool now.



Like flaunting "Grandmaster of Who-WhatsIt" on his web site? :confused:

Where did you see this "flaunting" of his achievements? Are you just envious because you haven't accomplished anything of your life other than blogging your "expert" opinions on knives? Is it flaunting to be awarded numerous awards from multiple organizations? He didn't ask for them...they were given to him.



Now...as for the website...yes, it needs some work. Hutton knows this and is working on it. As for the sharpening aspect, this is not a knife to sit around and pick your toenails with. It's a tool for saving your life or the life of a loved one. So if you're using it for what it was made for, it won't need to be sharpened. Hutton also guarantees these knives for life. Hutton is also working on a sharpening system for the knifes for former spec ops types that enjoy sitting around sharpening their blades. (We know how important that is.)
 
Actually I've been training FMA (Pekiti-Tirsia system) for some years now and I wouldn't touch this knives. May be because I have different understanding for grips than most, or that the knives are designed with a different MA in mind but still I find them quite unusable. First is that positive angle they have, then it's the bulge in the blade. Bit I guess that's just my view on things.
 
OMG i am selling my curahee crosshair and my emerson karambit and getti one of these, obviously they are quite superior.
 
Knives are simply moot if you have a 33 3/4" long and 1 3/4" thick stick of purple heart in a self defense scenario.

Knife effectiveness is severely limited when dealing with a serious piece of wood.

My old highly competent teacher learned a hell of a lot from this former woodworker.
 
When I want serious, Japanese martial arts training...I go to Arkansas.

No thanks.

Anyone care to explain how the blade shape of a limp wiener is the absolute best in self-defense edged weaponry?

LOL

Nothing impresses like an "advocate" throwing a temper tantrum because somebody doesn't like what he likes. I'm reminded of my neighbor's five year old who was grounded for hitting his brother when the brother wouldn't agree that mint chocolate chip was the best ice cream.

Great worry about what other's think about your ideas is often indicative of a lack of confidence.

I'm sure that somebody could kill somebody with Hutton's knife. Then again, a person can be killed easily enough by a #2 pencil, so it's not all that impressive. From the perspective, purely, of someone who knows knives and knife grinding very well, this looks like somewhat amateurish work. Does that make it incapable of performing its task? No--but $500 seems goofy.
 
Oh YEAH?! Well maybe mint chocolate chip will help you when I put your ass in a sling, and---

Oops! Sorry... :o

I see a misshapen foot with high arch issues.

But that is just me.
 
I checked out the Uniform Crime Reports like it said on the web page
Now what do I have to do next???
 
Stay on the topic of the knife or do not post.
 
How do you sheath that knife in a manner where it can still be fast to draw? Balance looks way wrong, especially if it is meant to be a slicer...

No real point? I can understand if stabbing isn't the emphasis, but to design a SD knife and take-away a useful point?

Deep finger grooves for a SD knife? Death grip martial arts hold? I'm guessing that the shape of the blade promotes trapping/control techniques, but not if you are forced to hold the knife in a saber-grip.

???
 
Well, again that's training-dependent...one thing I'd NEVER advocate is the movie-like habit of flipping your grip all over the place, which looks awesome and stands a very good chance of losing the knife when the adrenaline/blood pressure are up and the fine motor skills are down. If you start in a saber grip, I'd stick to it, if you start in an icepick grip, I'd stick to it--one way or another, unless a stunt coordinator is choreographing your fight, it's going to be over in four or five seconds. Strikes to the butt of the hand are much less likely to dislodge your knife if you have the aid of finger grooves, sub-hilts, lanyards, etc. Of course, you could conceivably end up locked up/immobilized where your preferred grip is not pointing the knife in a convenient direction, and wish very much that you'd chosen another grip. There are plenty of ways for things to go wrong, especially in a knife fight---and ESPECIALLY in a knife fight where you mess up and forget to shoot your opponent first.

Oh, and to answer the oft-asked question on this thread---the best way to sharpen that would be a belt sander, the same way it was ground. Get a 600+ grit belt, do one curve and then the other curve (do not try to do it in one pull-across, each curve needs to be started on the belt edge) and a loaded leather belt to finish on---it would take about two minutes to do a careful job, and touchups would work with just the leather belt alone or any small sharpening rod. I still don't care for the design.
