Hello all, this is my first post in this section,
I am giving some thought to a tanto, the knife, not the indian.
I have been researching the Magnum series, and also The O'tanto Dragonfly.
This blade would be primarily for self defense/last resort work. I like the traditional look with Dragonfly especially with the traditional saya.
I recently sold my Swamp Rat Waki, in search of a more traditional piece. So a Waki is in my future as well.
What draws me to the Dragonfly series is the ability to build a matching set, Tanto, Wakizashi, and Katana, eventually.
But the Magnum series has appeal as well. stunningly simple and elegand in a lethal sort of way.
To be fair I have been looking at the CRKT Husshou/Shinbu as well.
I don't own too many CS products, but I have a few, 3 SRKs, 3 Trail Hawks, and an older Outdoorsman inbound at the moment. To date I have not had any problems and absolutely love my Trail Hawks.
Any feedback on these products would be greatly appreciated. I came here because there seems to be a considerable amount of negative feedback on CS products, most seem unsubstantiated. So I thought I would spend some time in a slightly more friendly atmosphere.
Thanks in advance for any feedback,
