Heinz's and 50ft reviews' review. Both are good reviews but I have to give them a low score because there are absolutely no photos! None! A very serious omission that deserves extreme disapproval.
There's three in this lot ... (Image removed from quote.)Brushed stainless, coffin scaled (metal 50), and part serrated
As for the lock on the blade, I just like locking blades... .... In general, I think having a locking blade is just safer overall, and gives an appeal to a wider base of potential users. After all, most people who buy SAKs aren't seasoned users such as we all are here, and therefore have a greater risk of accidentally injuring themselves with a non-locking blade.
