<p>Last week we found that Puma has a smooth bone sodbuster style knife! We have both been very excited. Donnie has always liked the style and NO ONE makes it in smooth bone any longer. 2 went on order and the wait began. Shipping did not take long, about a week. The knives came fairly sharp, the bone fits and there are no gaps at the spring. Honestly it is a good looking knife</p>

<p><span>Donnie will be carrying this knife, using it and we will see how the steel holds up. Like I said it came fairly sharp, a few hits on the strop and it is shaving sharp. So this this review is just about the firat thoughts.</span></p>
<p><span>I like it, the concept, the style the materials, the weight and how it feels in the hand. What I dont like is the quality control.</span></p>

<p><span>Both knives have identical pin cracks at the spine. One knife only has that. My first thought...well it is a user and only 20.00. It has the material we wanted so just use that one. The pictures above are the second knife. So, lets go look at the return policy. Yeah, that is not going to happen. The IRS wanted less information. It is an inexpensive knife that was meant to be used so zap-a-gap the cracks put it in your pocket and lets see how it holds up as an EDC. So stay tuned and lets see what the steel has to tell us. At this point I would have to say, keep an eye out for them, see if they can be found for less and only buy if your looking at the knife your buying</span></p> Four New Groups Startedtag:iknifecollector.com,2011-07-25:3181080:Topic:3972362011-07-25T23:14:54.288ZSteve Hannerhttps://iknifecollector.com/profile/HogHanner
