After a lot of deciding I ordered my TNT from Knifeart. I was trying to decide between DR, JW Smith, and a TNT. I decided to get a TNT because I really wanted to try out the Talonite blade.

I really hope the knife turns out as well as my Joel Chamblin folders. I would love to hear about others who own the TNT.

Thanks
 
Not having too much experience with the TNT, I like mine... It is a daily carry, seems to keep an edge forever. I think Tom has a way of grinding that makes for a nice smooth edge bevel. Tom is a heck of a craftsman and a decent guy to boot. You get hooked on the stuff though... I had Tom make me a fixed version of the TNT style, being Talonite, I guess it is just a "T." :p
 
You'll never look back!!!

A TNT has been my EDC since I bought my first about a year ago. You'll LOVE IT!! I have used mine for everything from food preperation at home to camping chores in the woods, You can't hurt it, it cleans up SO easy!!! Chicken fat and other raw meat residue just washes right off that talonite blade with ease. I wash it, sling off the water and pop it back in it's kydex neck sheath. They hold a good working edge for an inordinate length of time and those Ti scales don't easily show scratches. I have always been rather fickle when it came to carrying folders. Not with the TNT!! It is my Holy Grail of Folders!!!

Just my opinion, but it will be yours too!!:cool:
 
I just got my first Mayo which just happens to be my first custom folder as well. It's an XL Hawkbill and I got it right from Tom. I have also purchased knives from Bladeart in the past and they are a great company to work with.

I must say, everything said about this knife (and Tom) live up to expectations :D

I have carried it a lot in the 4 days since it came and it has proven to be a very good cutter and a wonderful knife to just sit and play with.

I showed it to my wife and she said "oh that's nice", took the wind right out of my sails, she just doesn't get it, but hey... at least she's not complaining :D
 
TNTs are GREAT!!

My large TNT has been with me every day since this years Blade Show; My Sebenzas are gathering dust; I have another TNT on order...
