Ok, so I open the box, unwrap the paper, and I see this huge knife, was expecting BATAC to be smaller, I looked at the handle and immidiatly it appeared too wide. I tried to switch between reverse grip and regular grip and it felt really awkward, almost even droped it. At that point I knew which of the knife I'd sell. But seeing how badly I handled the knife, I couldn't believe that even the worst shaped knife would be so unusable, so I desided to mess around with it a bit. This is where the reall surprise came in.
After 2 minutes the handle didn't feel wrong, whats more it has never taken me less time to get used to the knife. This knife grows on you quick, after 10 minutes it felt like I have caried this thing to hell and back with me, as if I had it for years. I was really amazed and this thing just keeps on surprising me. It no longer feels, bulky, big, heavy or wierd, insted it goes exactly where I want it to before I do anything. Just amazing, and the best part is, it keeps geting easier and easier to wield, hold, chop, strike, use and what ever with every poassing minute.
I have done a compleat 180 on the knife in minutes, any thought of selling it only returned to my mind just right now when I was gona write that I'm not going to.
Now to GW, the only reason I grabed it to be honest, was because it felt like a rare item, I wanted to resell it later, get slightly more cash, and get that BA3, or the mean street. However once I got it out of the box, I knew this would be my EDC, and I wouldn't wanna trade it for much else. For its purpose and size I think its a perfect knife. Honestly I don't believe there can be better, at least for me. I wanted the black and red but got the tan one by mistake, and now I realize that was a great mistake, and worked out in my favor. Knife from the get go felt comfortable in hand, and most importantly gave compleat point and blade control. Now I just wish I got myself two of them, for when this one gets messed up.
I'm not going to mention here the multiple reasons why I didn't post this yesterday, but only gona say that a lot of my stuff became half of what they used to be, or even thirds.
Great knifes, no other way to put it, this is what I wanted when I started out looking for a good knife, I have absolutly no regrets about geting these two, and unfortunatly I'm gona buy more in the future. The knifes are just incredible. Big thanks to everybody who took time to answer my questions, thanx for the company while I waited for the blades, and special thanx, to Jerry and Skunk. Great knifes, great price, fast delivery and a real pleasure to be around all of you guys, have fun and cut things up.
