  • Well, Pete posted a new years update but more life than knife. Seems like he might be done with knife content for the most part. Ah well, this seems to be the way with a lot of hyper-specific hobby/enthusiast channels. Either they burn out or they develop new interests (imagine! 😂 ) and move the channel in a different direction.







  • What a great write-up. I stand in awe again. :)

    My two local Walmart stores continue to dissapoint when it comes to knives. The whole outdoors area has been made smaller and all the knives are now inside a glass storage cabinet behind a counter or at least behind a retracting stantion. Neither had the holiday specials out yet either.

    I did sort think they were going for a combo Bugout/Bailout look with this one. The Bailout “Crater Blue” edition for example: https://www.benchmade.com/products/537fe-02 for the colorway and the blade shape, with a more Bugout-esc handle.

    Still though, for $20 this is a rather astounding bargain. Even the button lock green one at $25 is a good deal.

    Really amazing at how far they’ve brough the line since that first $6 crossbar lock .
