Do yourself an even bigger favor and take out the torsion bar. I gained a whole new appreciation for the quality of the Blur the first time I opened it manually. I will never go back to assisted!![]()
i do really like cpm157cf
157!? I got jipped! Mine only has 154...![]()
So i see the outstanding reactions the blur has gotten on here. I for one do not own one nor have i ever had one in hand. Is there something i am missing with these? Is it something i need to just go ahead and buy to understand all the hype? Just wondering
anyone know how long it usually takes kershawguy to ship?
Whoops! Went one key too high on the keypad there, i meant 154, sorry to worry you
I swear he bribes the mailman, I have gotten packages from him two days after ordering on several occasions. Pretty impressive from OR to SC.![]()
I was just kidding. No worries.
CPM-154 is a joyous steel to use. The Knockout was my EDC until I got this piece, and before then I was using ZTs at work (primarily the 0560 and 0550). The Knockout is really robust for how slim it is, and it's a fantastic shape. However having an aluminum handle with CF inserts, a very slight recurve on a CPM-154 steel blade is just perfect, and this thing is strong. I put a 34 degree edge on it, and it cuts like a dream. The slight recurve is handy for stripping wire of all gauges, and the edge holds up for that kind of work just fine. It's crazy how well this steel responds to a strop also.
