Seems like the brand name changes over the years but this exact knife, handle, design, blade shape and material has been around for many years. I bought one with an orange handle in the late 1980's at a gun show and still have it. The blade is sharp and can take a beating, mine is still fully operational and sharp. Only heads up is, if you use it to cut an acidic fruit, wash/wipe the juice off right away, otherwise the blade will show stains....

Fixed blade knives

I would like to see some fixed blade knife deals here, hunting, butchering, fishing as well as chef knives that are not common in stores. For example, it is easy to find a good 10" chef knife, but trying to find a good and inexpensive 12" or 15" ch...

And I never referenced "law," nor did I make it out to be that the BK7 is only well-suited for food prep. I only referenced the language used in the description of this drop. I certainly never mentioned another brand or completely different design of knife having absolutely nothing to do with this drop. Ethan's opinions, being the designer, carry a bit more weight with me than the description does, or than your opinions do. My personal...

Thanks for catching that, you're correct.

Which knife steel is "preferable" is a much-debated issue with no absolute answer...it depends primarily on how much you want to spend and what application it's being used for, among many other variables like quality of heat treatment and blade thickness and edge angle.

The main difference is that D2 is only 12% Chromium and therefore not considered stainless (13% min), but it will hold an edge longer...

Yes, absolutely - we work directly with Jason and his team. I've had the pleasure of meeting him a number of times at Blade and SHOT shows, it would be unthinkable for me personally to sell knockoffs of these designs that he puts his heart and soul into.

As a company, Massdrop would not ever sell a counterfeit knife, or any other kind of product.  If you want to see what happens when I find out that a product's design has been "borrowed," go...

The designer, James Williams, intended this for carry and use, which is why it uses a kydex sheath instead of a traditional saya.

Not one to purchase guns, but one that has other firearm related stuff: reloading equipment, fail accessories, sights, scopes, armorer's tools, etc. The pocket and fixed knives from Blades can go in there (the kitchen knives can go to the Cooking com...

$30 for a replacement blade is a totally fair price, $5 cheaper than a replacement Benchmade blade and that's a company renowned for their excellent warranty practices, to the point that people are willing to tolerate their pricing that is consistently $40-60 above their perceived fair value just for the warranty.

VG10 is chippier and not as tough as S35VN, but I think they are usually run at fairly similar hardness.  It's definitely not a good...

I'd like to see something big come through here. I was thinking a machete or a big chopper or a Kukri. The Cold Steel Gurkha Kukri Plus comes to mind. The Condor Tool & Knife, Jungolo , Yoshimi or Makara Machetes are 3 newer designs from Joe Fl...

The designer may be Danish but where is the knife made? A 200 dollar knife knocked down to 75 bucks screams China.
