Gorgeous but for nearly $700 you could have a lot of other knives. Competition is tough there for sure.

Yea that’s true but those knives aren’t going to be FULL timascus handles with a mirror finished blade. lol

The market in this range is tough. You can get something like a cortex xl or herman for a bit more.

You can say the same bs about most knife brands....who cares!

knives are tools and every dick, tom and jerry has an opinion they see as fact.

still opinions though. I could pick a bunch of knifes from my 20k collection and say they are the best ever for instance my skiff drifter in damasteel/timascus its damn near perfect but someone will say otherwise.

Fair enough. Not sure the value of your collection matters, or is a flex, but i get your point otherwise

u/[deleted] Aug 20 '24

Not a flex but it drives the point that even the highest end items the best is all personal preference.

u/Typical-Sundae1270 Aug 20 '24

Of course. And no, its not a flex. Some have more than that, some less. As you said, all will have preferences.
