a few years back me and a group of buddies all ordered cold steel pocket bushman folding hunting blades one drunken evening. for many reasons; knives equate to coolness, lynn c thompson is an avid bicycle commuter, but probably most of all we had been watching cold steel promo dvds all night and it was the cheapest knife they sold at the time. the same time next week there were four obnoxiously large knives in my social circle. one was lost at a party (the ladies loved these knives, weird i know.) the second had it's locking mech demolished in a rouse of knife throwing. third had it's tip broken from shop use. the forth... no clue. i guess the point i'm trying to make is... don't buy one of those, poor quality.
but if it weren't for those knives we would have never found the wonderful game of knife boxing. that would be dangerous, if it involved physical exertion in the slightest.
p.s. my new kitchen knife. it cuts great! i'd post my kershaw leek, but i think it's in the laundry.
