This is a Amazon knock off that I swapped the plastic scales for micarta scales (Also Amazon).
I have been EDC’ing this for about 4 months. I felt a little odd putting my Benchmade that I carried for over a decade into the night stand.
However, for the price it would cost to replace that 1 knife, I can buy about 10 of these.
So far so good. It has seen the stones a couple times (I am a snob). But it is holding up well.
Definitely a light duty design, but very good at the daily task needs.
If I need something more robust, I will be pucking something else out of the drawer.
I have even purchased another for my son and a mini for my daughter.

do any of you guys actually make blades? I’ve been wanting to get a kitchen knife blade blank and make myself a nice handle for it, and it would be cool to support a fellow yoyoer

That’s expensive part haha. Also the burns.
My uncle does blades sometimes. I always wanted to learn and I designed my own blades for years. Nothing came of it and I have the creativity of a bathroom tile now so, oh well.
I have purchased materials for a Ammo Can Mini forge. Have several Straight razor designs and a BBQ knife design. I have the Steel and handle materials.
The grinder has been holding me back for years.
Im not scared of the work.

I made this one from a blank, Hawaiian Koa for the scales.
I have a Matt White 3 1/2” slojd blade that should be shipping in the next couple weeks, I’ll build my own handle for that.
I have most everything I need to make my own knives, just too many other things taking up my time. About to start a new career, so it’ll probably be a bit before I get to forging knives.

Shuffle, right? Or am I mixing it up with another? It’s been so long since I kept up on knife stuff. Whatever it’s called, I have a couple black ones and think they’re great little knives haha

Shuffle one! I love mine. I’ve had the one and the two, but the one was a gift so it gets used more. Neat little thing.
