I bet that thing is right up your alley for the heavier farm jobs.
I remember reading a review about that one at some point. Quite a large piece. Should be very nice. You can get a "second quality" of it for very little money.
I own this knife and it is well made nice balance with a good tach sheath.
On the Featherlite? Or on the Hunter? No matter
The Featherlite is AUS8a
The Large Hunter is 8Cr13Mov
Both good hardworking budget steels.
A version of both knives can be found for under $100 and in the case of the One Hand knife there's even a VG-10 version that can be ordered under $50.
This bad boy just came in a couple of hours ago. I'm very happy I was able to track one of these down. Now I'm still looking for the 2008 version.
But for now. Check this out:
Next to a couple other blades for size reference. The top knife is a One Hand Featherlite (one of A.G's knives)
The bottom one is a Mcusta Tactility also not a small knife at 3,75" bladelength
Very very big knife
My A.G. Russell 2009 Texas Ranger Large Folding Hunter just came in. Man, I'd forgotten how big that knife is.
I can find my way around it no problem. I have a lot of friends in the US that will help me out no problem.
One of the pieces I'm most interested in. The seller claimed to KNOW that locking knives are illegal outside of the US (They're not in most places) and that the legal limit to a non locking blade was 2,5" in Brittain (it's not it's 3" and no limit on type of knife or length if you have a legally valid reason to carry one such as camping/working in the yard etc). This he knew because he'd travelled to Europe once and had been a police officer for 40 years.
I told him he was misstaken and that at least in my country there was no such limit on either locking blade or length like that. (I didn't bother with the other misinformation since he didn't seem open to it) and that I'd really like that knife of his.
He told me he'd ship to me since I promised him it wasn't against the law here.
It just bothers me sometimes. Some americans seem to think that anything in Europe is some kind of Orwellian 1984 type state where nothing is allowed.
Seems like a chat discussion my brother had with an american girl once (she wasn't very bright) where he convinced her that we have no electricity in Europe.....WHILE HE WAS CHATTING WITH HER ON THE INTERNET!!!
Same thing on lots of forums. People always state "Continental US only".
I'll tell you...I'd have spent a lot more money on knives if that weren't the case....probably good for me that they do that then.
Luckily A.G. doesn't have a problem shipping to me :-)
