Hello Folks
I am currently looking for a general utility blade that will be used to cut anything & every thing in the kitchen & around the house. My preferences are:
* Fully serrated blade about 5.5 long
* Fixed blade favoured
* If folder must strong & secure ie: lockback
* Grippy handle
* Robust design- will be subject to abuse
* Sharp tip required for pointy, piercing work
* Full tang preferred
This blade will be replacing the cheap Made in Taiwan version of a 5.5 FB kitchen knife which I have found to be the most useful blade ever . have owned several but cannot find stout ones .they only seem to last 20-30 months before snapping. So durability is every important!
All constructive responses would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!
