Another good knife.

[Weirdnerd]

I had a gift card I was not using, so I decided to get myself a decent camping knife, good bang for the buck, this knife is good steel ( 1066, similar to spring steel) , decent size, and rugged. I was not planning on buying a boutique knife, I use this puppies for lots of things while camping, and this one came with a ferro rod.

That looks nice!

I've been eyeing one of those BPS knives for a while. I don't need another knife, but you know how that goes. For the price they are a darned good knife with a very nice leather sheath.

I have a couple home made, but they feel too nice to take camping .

This one seems sturdy and if I mangle it batoning, does not hurt that much.

Here are my homemade ones:.

That is a fine looking knife!

For the price of the knife, sheath and ferro rod, I could not buy the sheath alone. Price is ridiculously good.

I like their "Stand With Ukraine" knife. Putting that on my "want" list.

Nice setup for the money! and not MIC!

Nice. My last camp knife purchase was from Finland. Was a really good deal when I bought it. Prices have gone up a bit since then.

This BPS looks like a good deal.

With a sheath (I assume it loops on a belt) that would be a great camping knife. Simple and solid.

Keep in mind that these aren't made to last a lifetime, just the life expectancy of the soldiers they are handed out to.

1066 is a less than ideal alloy that you'll want to keep oiled. And, as with all easy to sharpen blades, they also wear faster.

Not the worst blade for the money (it is a good deal), but most definitely in the lower tiers.

Any knife requires care, be it a 800 bucks or 40 bucks, personally I would not spend 800 bucks on a knife.

Werner, the knife looks great I bet it feels good in the hand. I also like your homemade knifes.

[campinut]

Nice, Werner! I had the image blown up and could only see the blurry hind quarters of your dog. I thought you were dispatching a chicken....Russ

[Weirdnerd]

Them dogs, they are like my shadow. Wherever I go, they follow me!

Reminds me of the Old HIckory, from Ontario Knife Company.

[stoves1234]

I've seen videos where guys have etched the blade with vinegar for example to prevent rust. Also the handles are easily removed to be modified if needed. And yes, not MIC. A huge plus for me.

[Stovie]

What is an "MIC" knife?

I'm a fan of high carbon blades.
Yep , they need touched up often.
A fine file can straighten an edge quick too.

Real hard steels take time to get a good edge back on. Seem too brittle for me too.

[bowenstudios]

They have several good looking knives. I’m not sure I’ve ever bought a new knife that wasn’t a gerber, and honestly have grown to dislike them. I can’t get a good edge on one to save my life. Maybe I should try one of these.

[Loganeffecto]

Wouldn’t mind having one of those. It appears to be somewhat of a clone of an Ontario Rat.

Man that looks sweet!!

I wandered into "that reddit thing" a while back, all innocent and naive. Found it was a minefield...

Do NOT take candy from strangers or enter a reddit sub(?) Called knives. It's a trap! Soon all of your Coleman money will.be locked up in knives that you do NOT need

[Weirdnerd]

I still have three feet of leaf spring out of a ford, a grinder and a belt sander.....
