KA-BAR/Dozier Lightweights

I just received my Orange & Black Lightweight Dozier K/B and I have to say that this folder is just perfect, in all respects.
I'm going to EDC this one.
Sorry, no pic.
Thanks.

I love mine.
Tough, razor sharp, and very light in one small package.
Just wish it had the thumb stud on both sides.
 
Thanks, willc.
Dozier knows how to make a knife the way a knife needs to be made. :D
This folder just feels so good in the hand. The handle is perfect. Typical Dozier.

I just bought one a couple of weeks ago and have been singing the praises on BF. It is quite the knife for $20-$25. I hope you enjoy yours. You may just end up buying a couple of them and spreading them around in choice places much like you might a SAK. I love Vic SAKs.
 
Just wanted to get this topic back to page one. This knife is really amazing for the cost... I had two gripes about it. One: it's not a fast opener, at least not for me. Two: the edge of the locking bar is really sharp and can become uncomfortable. Just took the knife apart and rounded the edges of the locking bar (80-100-360-600 grit) and I gave the blade a good oiling. Gripe 2: solved. Gripe 1: improved but not perfect (I might want to add washers, maybe that helps). Still, I'm a happy camper. Not a lot of blades out there that give you similar materials for this price. Another thing: the simplicity of the knife itself is just beautiful. Just like an Opinel it consists of only a few pieces. Two screws, that's it. Not a lot of modern folders out there that present you that kind of simplicity to work with. The simplicity is just AWESOME when tweaking it like I just did. Thanks KA-BAR!
 
Just got one in myself just today (in a nice understated shade of tan...reminds me of my Army days :p),along with a BK2 (my first BK series,VERY much in love with it so far :D). First impressions are VERY high,looks like I finally retire my old EDC knife for this one,I'll be ordering more :D
 
I've been getting a ton of use out of this. It's a great size, shape and texture. I just hope nobody thinks I'm going green.:eek:

It is one of THE best buys in the entire knife world. I put it up there with Mora knives and SAKs as far as bang for the buck.

Wow… a mora of folders. Very nice. Might have to pick one up after Christmas (if funds are kind to me).
 
I bought a pink one for my wife some time ago and I gotta say its awesome she uses it all the time around the house. Ill have to pick up the toxic green one to go with my green Mule!

Love it :thumbup: And just make sure you have at least one ride that gets under 15MPG's for no specific purpose served and they'll be alright (those thinking you went green) :P
 
Forgot to post a pic of mine. Colors remind me of my Army days,LOL :p



With my also new BK2,these two go together like copy and paste :)
 
Ordered up one for my youngest daughter, who asked for a pocket knife for Christmas to replace the Frost junker she found. Super excited for her. And me!
 
BRL- What color?
I "was" going to order a custom folder from Bob Dozier but why? :D
 
I love mine. I have the Dozier Hunter folder with the thumb-hole and another with the thumb-stud. I prefer the latter. I also have one of the Mini's. They're a great value as well.
 
I have full size in coyote and orange and a small in zombie green. I gave my Dad a full size zombie green, my son a small zombie green and my daughter a small pink. They are great knives. I have used mine pretty hard and carried it a lot and it just keeps on ticking. I love how light they are. Can't go wrong for the price. I also have a Zharon, but the truth is I don't carry it much. It feels significantly heavier to me, and the drop point blade is more useful for what I do with a knife than the tanto point. It is a decent knife for the price too.

I won one from a photo contest here a year or two ago. For a few months this past year it was my only knife I had available. Never failed, super light, always very sharp and easy to sharpen, too. Great pieces!
