Title: Sentinel owners club
Post by: kari_sak on February 10, 2016, 01:34:39 PM
How about a club for these great knives?
Serrated, plain edged, OH, clip, let`s see them all.

Great knife. A real light and slim carry.

I don´t have the OH ... strict knife laws I don´t want come in trouble with.

I should really carry this more often. A Nomad or a Forester/Trailmaster with the clip would be an innovating design - and a real option instead of sheath-carry the 111 mm series.

C'mon Vic.  :pok: :pok:

I have the same one as Humppa. I actually prefed it as I have never been a fan of OHO knives. The Sentinel makes a great food prep knife.

Got one some time ago. A bit too big for my daily needs but a great knife.

LOL!  I got it when I bought a nice leather 111mm Zermatt so what did I do? Swapped sheaths into a generic Vic nylon and threw it in the big box.   :facepalm:

I have a non-serrated with clip in my food kit.
It is a new Esbit cooker that replaces my old Esbit and mess tins from my time in the Belgian military.

The knife snobs have been picking on the OHOS, but I like mine!  Even got a part serrated black-out from Europe with neat pouch that was not cheap!
Title: Re: Sentinel owners club
Post by: Ron Who on August 18, 2018, 11:19:27 PM
The OHO lock blades are illegal in some countries, and I wouldn´t be surprised to see the EU banning them throughout. I don´t think it would matter much to me as the OHO blades are not the most ergonomic when using other tools than the blade. But the Sentinels, having no other tools, are an exception. I have both the plain and serrated versions.

Oh, there's a separate club for Sentinels? I'm in! Mine is the OH serrated without clip. Lovely knife, I mainly use it in the kitchen.

Think I'll give mine a try again, slim back pocket, but I use a cap lifter more than a blade lolol.   :cheers:

Sentinel with Nanopresso

I like the Sentinel, but don't generally carry it because it's a tad too large and it scares the muggles at work.

Nice SAK for sure! But the Nanopresso really got my attention...is that a actual espresso machine or a container for carrying it around.  :like: :tu:

Yup, it's an actual espresso machine. All you need is hot water. I carry coffee in a separate container.
At work we have dreadful coffee, and we are not allowed to use electronics (like a Nespresso or other coffee maker) because of regulations.
So, for me this is the next best thing. Granted, it does have it's quirks. I have to pre-heat it well to pull a good cup, otherwise I will get a sour shot quick.
Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2A1UgycJ8cw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2A1UgycJ8cw) is a nice review of the device.

Well that is a very interesting machine, and you can use the capsules so that is nice, especially as he mentioned, for camping! Thanks!  :cheers: :hatsoff:

I'm completely off topic now, excuse me for that.

But I got the NS adapter as a Christmas present. With it you can use Nespresso capsules to make espresso. It works like a charm and does not make as much a mess as ground coffee. Depending on the situation I bring either the one or the other.

I don´t think so. Unlike other OHO folders, the Vxs have a backspring so you´ll need to apply a little force.

I have a serrated Sentinel Clip OHO model, and I don't like it. What don't I like about it?

Um...to me they're ugly...

Only come in one color, black...would prefer red...

Only a knife blade? Come on.....I need tools.....

Not easy to open or close, especially one-handed. But even two-handed.

So. Even accounting for the fact that it doesn't have screw drivers and scissors and stuff, because that's the model it is.... No, I don't particularly like it. Sorry.

I didn't even intend to buy it.....bought it by accident.....
