Southern Grind Grandaddy

[Pitted]

I stumbled upon this knife flipping through a magazine a couple of months ago. The only retailer that supposedly carried them was Gander Mountain, but they were sold out. I really wanted to see this blade in person or at least read a couple of reviews before i bought it, but could not find anything. So when I saw the price drop, I took a chance and ordered it. I know some will say it's overpriced for the steel used,etc.. but this thing looks mean, chops great, and I love the quick release tab on the sheath. Definitely not the most practical blade, but that's what my "sensible" folders are for.

I know Machete Specialist carries one of their models. I'm not sure if it's that specific one or not, though. And I'm too lazy to look it up right now. (actually, too busy)

The article I read had it listed for 225.00, but I paid 150.00 direct from Southern Grinds website.

I believe that Zac Brown (the country singer) is a part of making these knives.

Yes, Southern Grind is apparently his company. Never was a fan of his music, but I'm liking this knife!

I just ordered one of these today. Anyone else have any likes or dislikes?

I am resurrecting this thread cause I know people have to own these things.

How would it compare to a Junglas?

I too, am curious how people like these.. I read they have a differential ht, softer towards the tip?

They quit making the Grand Daddy some time ago but they still make the Grand Daddy 2. We sell them and have never had a complaint. There are some good videos on You Tube about them as well!
