I,ve just ordered a spirt from tim!

So all the picture,s and reviews here have forced my hand in to my now thinner wallet :grin:

thanks guys, i cant wait to get it, i,m still not sold on the idea of the combo blade, but a least vic put the serrations in the right place, unlike every other knife manufacturer out there!

cheers

I'm looking forward to your thoughts on it when it arrives.

Vic's serrations are probably the most intuitive of all manufacturers in where they located on the blade.Is there anything else we can tempt you wiith?

what sorta line of women do you offer?

i,ve always been partial to red heads :grin: :grin:

and yeah i,m not a fan of serations at all, but at least there not right next to the tang, apart from asthetics i can,t see why on earth all the other knife manufactures but there serations next to the tang?

Good question, but I don't know the answer. Although I do hear people complaining that the serrations on the OH Trekker blade are out on the end, not "in by the tang where they belong." (I do not have one.)

Well, i,ve got a oht and an ohf and although i hate serations i have to say i can see vics logic in putting them toward the end of the blade so you get the most powerful shearing effect, while retaining the straight edge where you want it for precise cuts.

I'm a big fan of vics serrations , I dont prefer them over the plain edge it just depends what your cutting . Last year when I done pumpkin carving at Halloween with the kids i tested quite a few knives and found the Vic serrations out performed everything else , although the black coated blade on my OHT wasnt very good , the coating somehow wouldnt slide through the pumpkin .
