My Raut from MKM has a very similar blade to the top one but it’s a front flipper.

Wow... ok, so in 1971 Victorinox and Wenger produced Soldiers. So far I thought they had alternated between the years and haven't seen any other  :dunno:

Nice soldier. 


Day 27

(Image removed from quote.)
Hinderer XM3.5 and XM3, for the Gen6, I think it has finally resolved all the flipping problem from previous Gens.  Though it is still not the best flipper in the world, it now has decent flipping ability.  Overall I quite like this series, if only they could reduce the jimping under the flipper tab and handle, it'd be near perfect.

Nice pair.  Love the blue.  I’ve thought about buying an XM for a while, but never have.  Now I’m holding out for a left-handed one, which is supposedly planned.

Nice Esee and sheath.  I like their simplicity. 
In between the XM3 and XM3.5, I would humbly suggest the later since I think the design in every regard is meant for that length.

I have a 'conspiracy theory' the reason why the XM series is "over-jimped"--because earlier models were notorious for being a poor flipper(even the current ones still flip slightly lazy).  I think they might have purposely placed fairly aggressive jimping right under the flipper, which makes no sense to me, except to encourage user to 'light switch' the flipper and to disguise the flipper problem. :facepalm:

Personally, the ZT562Ti is in many ways a better 'XM' than the XM itself.  Much, much better flipping action, and no jimping at weird places to shred your hand.

Gerber Freeman Guide.  This is one bargain knife that is so comfy in the hand, I really wish they would make another with a bit thicker spine of better grade and G10 or Micarta scales.  (A leather sheath on that would be really cool as well).  So far I've only used this to cut food when camping.  If I ever do make my own one day, I'm using this as a template.

How does the laminate work D2 on bottom and 14c28 on the top or vice versa?

Return of the Fuzzaxe Day 27

It's been a lovely warm brooding atmospheric day here, but threatening rain (and indeed thunder and lightning) at any moment. So, took the opportunity to make and furnish Fuzzaxe with a new short Ash handle. I'd attempted one a while back with some Hazel, but halfway through realised it wasn't nearly seasoned enough so gave up. This time I used a length of well seasoned Ash with a beautiful uniform grain... Just need to oil it now.

Day 27: Another Elite Force. This is a more usual design for them. Tacticallish looking, stone washed blade and handle. Never used it. The opening is impossible with the thumb studs alone and the flipper only opens the blade while you push on it. It needs a combination of flipper plus thumb stud to open. Lock is pretty solid, maybe it's a good unexpensive folder fo EDC but couldn't really say...
