Little Hidden Gems
I was picking up some goat feed at Tractor Supply about 3 months ago. As I was browsing the little bins while waiting in line, I found this little hidden gem for $10
The blade is 3 3/4" long with a overall length of 8 3/4". The point I like the most of this workhorse is that the blade from butt until about 1 1/2" from the tip it is a full 1/4" thick.
The finger grooves provide more that enough purchase to really crank on it and not worry about your hand losing hold.
The knife is butt heavy, but easily utilized. I have used it pretty heavy for the past 3 months and have not had to resharpen it since I put a razor edge on it when I bought it.
There is no name on it. There are no markings as to the steel used for the blade.
It is a simple and stout workhorse. This fall I will see how well it skins deer & pigs.
It must be sharp. Your thumb knows! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat was a deal.

Beat me too it.:)
One must get up early to beat me to the tomfoolery.
DeleteRe-stretching some barbwire fence is what got my thumb; this time.
ReplyDeleteBut, I have sliced my fingers up on sharp blades to many times to count. :)
