MTech USA Two-Tone vs Spyderco Dragonfly 2 Hawkbill Salt Knife Yellow

Hey guys, what's going on, i wanted to do a review and show you, the uh, m-tec usa knife that i have so it looks like up closer. You can see that um. ...

875 inches, it's using a fairly thin stock, uh 0.093 or essentially it's it's two and a half millimeter Stock, this is a very lightweight knife, so on...

This could be a good axe but for me the handle is too thin and doesn't have alot of grip to it. The axe itself is smaller than I expected. Also, the thin handle makes it hard to hold if you have bigger hands. I'm afraid it might go flying if I get sweat on my hands or lose concentration while swinging

75" of usable grip length when the choil is included. Furthermore, most of that grip length is made up of Spyderco's FRN handle with its bi-directional pattern and ergonomic shape. Hard to describe but the thing just snugs up to the crease in your palm, sticks there and your fingers fall into the sweet spots without even thinking about it. Ergonomics

Not only that, it came slightly bent. To go into further detail, the blade on this hatchet is ground at much too aggressive of an angle, meaning that it doesn't bite into the wood at all, it just kind of bounces out of the cut. Furthering that problem, the head is way too thick to get a less aggressive grind on it without removing a ton of material. Another problem is that it's way too heavy, making it feel overly clumsy in the hand, and that's only exacerbated by the fact that it's bent just ever so slightly, so your cuts will almost never land how you want them too

Although it has a cheap look and feel, and doesn't have great gripping ability, it does help keep the weight down. It does seem plenty strong though. The blade locking mechanism is a little tight out of the box, but it locks the blade open with some authority. Some don't like the clip, for various reasons, but I do

SO Close to Perfection... For the Price, Size & Weight, this was a Beautiful Purchase ! After studying the item for several days and debating its usefulness for splicing/grafting trees and trimming them, I went ahead and made the buy

Spyderco can't compete with other top knife makers producing mediocre blades at super-premium prices. The fact that I am at all disappointed is *extremely* disappointing. I don't think I'll keep this.

The price was cheap enough so if I lose it or have to throw it away, no great loss. It's light weight and the cover is nice enough. Durability.

It has gone through the wash a few times, and it is my most frequently misplaced knife due to it's small size and feather weight. The short blade is very functional due to the 50/50 coil and aggressive jimping, but the small grip doesn't inspire too much confidence. The frame flexes a little, reminding you that it is a light duty knife. It is flickable, but you might have to tune the main pivot screw for optimal function
