A1 it is!That beautiful Scout (ABOVE) has a blade thickness of 0.189"......
nice for the woods; MUCH too thick for casual home use.
My "scout carry" fixed blades are 0.125" max...(several) and roughly 7.25" overall length.
My excellent $300 CLIPPED folder by Three Rivers Manufacturing is 0.090" and is great for my household jobs.
FOR YOUR SAKE, DON'T GET CARRIED AWAY BY A KNIFE DESIGNED FOR WOODS WORK.
FALLKNIVENS ARE FINE KNIVES...DESIGNED BY AND FOR "hunters and outdoorsmen,"JUST NOT WHAT YOU WANT OR NEED.
DON
But really, thanks for your advice. I've had some nice flippers, but just want the stability of a fixed blade. No, I don't need anything crazy. But it would also be hard to start getting crazy with something that can't handle it.
