Ive been lurking on here for a longggg time.Feeding my steel addiction lol.
Anyway can some fellow addicts give me opinions on the S&W CK212 Homeland security knife plz.( I cant seem to find a pic thats appropriate to post) there all HUGE store adds.
I fondled it at my local knife store and liked it as well as the price, $20.00 bux out the door. Im not knowledgeable enuff to know if it is a good knife(one that will last) Being that its a 20 dollar knife i have to wonder.
Thanks.Fog
 
They're cheap, and I guess they're OK. I have a S&W Special Tactical (2 of them, actually), which are my EDCs. They do just fine. I also have a very large Extreme Ops. They're decent knives, but nothing special.

I'll be getting a Waved Delica and a Ti-Lite soon to replace them, though.
 
I've handled an older Homeland Sec knife and a few other models. Overall they're not bad for the price. They give an impression of being overbuilt , but personally I think they're heavier than they should be. Some are stamped as 440C, but I don't know if that's true.

You can buy the model you like on Ebay for $6 - $13.

At $20, they're OK but I'd take an entry level Kershaw, Spyderco, Buck or Benchmade over one.
 
they're cheap knives. I like them to go in my bunker gear, if I break one opening a bucket of foam I'm out 20 bucks. No big deal. Don't go expecting something crazy.
 
I bought one for $12.00 on impulse awhile back, the ck212.

It's way to bulky to carry, and the weighs a ton, but I use it for a beater around the house, and it has held up surprisingly well for $12.00.
 
Okey doke, it sounds like its an ok 20 dollar knife. I figured it was a to good to be true thing,as the sales guy was telling me how GREAT it is ! And its only 20 bux!
Thanks for the info.I have enuff 20 dollars ones to last awhile,so
i think i,ll just wait for the wife to buy me the SKELETOOL CX ive been hinting at.
