Hi all !
The MoD-knives are looking good!
Especially I like the Tempest.
Opinions about this knives: quality,handling etc. ?

Thx,
Frank

I really like these knives. Construction is seemingly identical to microtech models but the steel is 154CM - which Dexter can probably describe better than I. They are less expensive than a microtech.
Action on opening is adjustable, but generally a little tight when new.

Howard,

The 154 CM is just an American made version of the Japanese ATS-34.
Qualities are virtually identical.

Microtech switced to 154CM so they could claim their knives are 100% US made with a clear conscience.

Best Regards,
