Nice photos of the Ban Tang BT4. That is one nice knife.

Great pics thus far. Some great looking knives, for sure.

Ban's knife feels awesome in-hand as well. Can't wait to hear how it felt with extended use.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and bet that the results will show.....they all work well. Sure, there will be differences, but they all look very nice and very functional. Aesthetic preferences may just be the deciding factor.

I couldn't agree more. Each and every knife looks like a top notch outdoor blade. Looking at the fit and finish of the knives it's very apparent that the makers really do know what they are doing.

My bet would be the same as yours. If I was lucky enough to use all of them, the deciding factor would probably come down to aesthetics. There might be some VERY SMALL dislikes about the way one handles against the other but I would bet it would be so minuscule that I would have to get REALLY nit-picky.

That's Marcelo's compass. All I know is he had it since he was a kid, I believe it was the first thing he ever purchased with his own money.

 

[Rick Marchand]

That's cool Marcelo... I still remember the first thing I ever bought will my own money...
