I wanted the OD Green Heritage Jack for a long time, still do. But can’t bring myself to spend the $300+ on it. My black Heritage Jack was just over $100 new. The Northwoods jump drastically on the secondary, much more than “standard” GEC. I love this knife. ---

The secondary is insane. Back when I had GEC I put my crown lifter up for auction. The blade had patina, had been sharpened, had some slop and the pin was visible, a small chip in the ebony handles and I still made out plus 50 bucks. I was gonna be happy with just 50 bucks to recoup. ---

Thankfully, I missed that. I don’t know if I could have handled traveling to PA twice in a month :joy:. They had the rendezvous the same time as blade show? ---

Yeah. I think The Rendezvous and Blade Show crowds are a little different so don’t think too many had to choose which they were going to attend. ---

That is my concern just getting into this. $32 for a starter knife, similar to a starter yoyo. Just started my first project. If this keeps up, I am scared where it may go… My yoyo wall is a prime example. ---

Ease into it gently. You’ll have a block and chain in no time I really need to make some spoons. ---

Anyone have recommendations for a budget camping edc? Looking for a folding blade. Ideally \<$100. Also any general brand recommendations? Benchmade stuff looks good but its a little out of my price range right now. Probably pick one up somewhere down the road though. ---

The Gerber Gator is a great all arounder about $50.00. Pair this with a Morakniv Bushcraft and you will be set for a while. Also around $50.00. Should be right around your $100 mark for both. ---

Mora is hard to beat for a camping edc. I love my eldris. It’s a tiny little fella. but some models run very inexpensive and are still quality knives. And nothing beats a scandi grind imo ---

I knew I clicked on the wrong reply arrow lol. I’m still getting used to the new reply bubble. I mean, it’s an older Bugout, it’s been sharpened and the handles are dyed (it was before they made a black Bugout so it has blue handles dyed black). I can let it go cheap if @kksimon wants a crack at Benchmade. They’re my favorite modern folders. Only reason I’d sell is because I have a mini Adamas and I use that more. ---

Thanks for the recommendations @Pun1sh3R! Both of these look great. Assuming this was towards me @Simyo I really appreciate the offer, its extremely generous of you, but I have an old multitool that will work fine. More looking for a robust knife for simple camping and general edc. @JSERR that sounds fantastic PM sent! ---
