Budget 1095 put to the rope

Post by old4570 »



1095 Budget blade from England / Pakistan ? ( ???? )

Anyways , saw this on FeeBay and put in a bid !
Not a lot of Bananas ( $ ) , so was a budget purchase .

A) Looks nice
B) Sheath is nice
C) ::shrug:: And that's about where the nice ends !
D) Handle is nicely made , but around 10mm to small / short . My index finger gets crowded by the blade with a good grip .
E) How flat ? Not flat ! The blade is rippled something bad . I put a 3000 grit stone to the blade to highlight the high spots .
F) The blade developed a bur behind the edge ( where the bevel becomes the main blade ) I was wondering why a fresh edge would not cut paper ?
G) Performance 1095 it is not . 50 slices of rope and bye bye paper slicing . This is bottom of the barrel performance .
H) At least the sheath is nice ! ::sotb::
