Spyderco Paramilitary 2 vs Opinel No. 12

Today we're talking about: Oh man, you guys know this. If you're watching this video, you probably know this. It's one of the most iconic and well-kno...

The blade came sharp, but as a professional sharpener, I made it sharper up to 10,000 grit utilizing a Chocera stone. The blade length is more like a #10 Opinel - which is fine for me. The locking mechanism works well - even better than wood handle Opinels which opens with a bit more resistance. The lanyard works well

you get great steel for the price too, for such a large blade in S30V, compared to some other companies using S30V in their blades *cough* Benchmade *cough*, you get much more of the premium steel for the blade and the blade is pretty dang chunky compared to the other Spyderco mainstays like the Delica/Endura. The blade comes uncomfortably sharp from the factory and being that its S30V, it will be moderately easy to keep it that sharp. Ive cut myself already on this blade. I slipped while cutting something, and I felt it scratch against my thumb

You know just the normal one and save yourself like 30 bucks, so not impressed. I will have links in description below over to Amazon for these. If yo...

What makes this knife so pricey is the fantastic blade steel and "Made in U.S.A" status. Overall unless you have to have an American made Knife I would look at their Taiwanese and Japanese or even Chinese made knives first if you can get over the inferior materials

If you ask me all right so now we got all those chunks there. So now what I want to do is just take them all off. Take them all off, got ta, make arro...

But it's now over a decade old, and knife-making has come a long way. I'm here to tell you about why this might not be the right fit for some people's daily carry anymore. 1. In the past few years there's been a renewed focus in the knife industry on making smaller, lighter knives that carry better and are thinner behind the edge

It's a big knife and a little unwieldly. I tried batoning it for some kindling. It'll do in a pinch but I think for processing wood I'd rather use an axe or a fixed blade knife.

Lightning OTF. Goddamn if this isn’t one of the best $30 I ever spent. It’s like 8 years old, been beat on, and still fires hard every time. This sits on top of my fridge as a dedicated Amazon package knife

Definitely NOT an Every Day Carry. Weight 5.3 oz, length 6", no clip. I am putting it with my camping gear

. The G10 handles, as stated earlier, are beautiful. Moreover, they are functionally superior

I have no problem with that, but a knife. This way you can see. It's pretty big, and this sticks out the end here and my hand is all palm no fingers a...
