Which one?

[bladerunner01]

Neither. Sorry, trying to be nice, but neither is my cuppa.

Totally fair.

 

[Weiss]

That one! That one right there! That's the one!

(By which I mean the red one, of course.)

Eye of beholder i guess, then. I disagree completely, as long as it's stainless. I thought all they did was carbon steel. Just found out these are Marcus balbach stainless Damascus. Now I'm back in. I was thinking of buying both, but am really trying not to be so wasteful and duplicating things unnecessarily like I always do. Thanks for the input.

Not for nothing but they have the look like of $50 ebay knife from Pakistan.....

I kind of figured that's what people were thinking of them. I can see why, but I definitely see more than that. It's the blade that looks off, the Damascus pattern almost looks fake, like a faint DIY mustard etch.

Shame the new server doesn’t allow for a laugh and thumbs up simultaneously, alas I gave the thumbs up.

It's the thought that counts.

For something different, go look at an Allen Davis knife. He does locking blades. For slip joints, T.A. Davison

Okay okay okay I get it. I'll stop creating threads. I'll relegate myself to the quiet place I belong.

I told you. 2 more days and I will be surpassed. it’s all good though.

 

[link2derek]

IMHO, you'd be better off getting another Inkosi (or Sebenza), maybe a large this time.

I like the white and blue color.

Too much to you guys is just right for me, it seems. So matter of perception in the end. Either way I'll try to dial it back.

Don't be discouraged, I for one always enjoy new threads and conversations

That said, I vote neither, those knives just don't catch my eye.

 

[Gary W. Graley]

I vote the red one, but I did find it strange that they both have bolsters on the tail and nothing at the pivot? The red one just has a bit more character and the thumbstud matches in part with the red scales.
But without knowing the makers of these and how the damascus is, it does make you want to wait until you have that information to choose if either one would be a good knife to have and use.
