Jan,

It kills me (as an aspiring knife maker myself) that some folks can put out a quality product and do so at such a low price point! I love it as a collector/consumer but not as a knife maker however. These folks are practically giving the knives away once you consider the material costs and the labor involved to make and assemble all of it. I'll never make a profit as a knife maker! lol!!! Guess that I'll have to learn how to speed up my production and streamline my models to tailor them to mass production if I want to compete or be content making knives for a different user group - or I'll just keep making knives just as a hobby - one that with which I occasionally make a sale to at least break even or make a slight profit. Better keep my day job I guess!!!

I have been waiting for these to hit the market!

The story is here http://www.trestlepineknives.com/ and at less that 90.00 they are now available here http://shop.tsaknives.com/Trestle-Pine-Knives_c252.htm

I like your choice Alexander.  I have a fix blade which is very much like yours but made by Jantz Supply of Davis, OK.  Keep us posted on the outcome of your testing.  Thanks for the photo and post.

Excellent Alexander, can't wait to hear about it!  Have some fun and be safe

I've got my personal EDC carry.

This coming week I'll be testing it to it's limits during a camping trip.

Clint,

When and where do we get to read about your trip?

Buck knives are great knives.  I have my first folder lock-back from 35 years ago.  A good fix blade takes different shapes from one manly man to another.  I saw the gearpatrol.com of which Ms. Data, thanks for that young lady, had posted.  Some of the knives are great tools.  My top ten fix blades to be used in the bush or woods would be a knife with a blade of 4.5 inches to 8.0 inches, with sufficient weight to be used as a chopping tool.  Serration is not something I would want in my survival knife but a good sharp blade.

I just returned from the mountains backpacking and fishing.  I tool my Leatherman Wave and in my backpack I had my Pro-Tech Brend #1 Combat knife.  The Brend #1 Combat has a 7", .225 thick 154-CM Stainless Steel blade.  This knife will do the job.
