I’ve posted the ravencrest before a few years ago. It’s steyr branded which is the reason I don’t sell the double sided combo edge.

Might look into it soon.

I'm re-watching "The Expanse" right now.
When it went to Amazon, I kinda fell off of it for some reason, so I started over and realized I had forgotten alot/missed a bunch of details the first go around.
When I finish this up, I'll be looking for something new and will check it out then.

I need to do that as well.

I kinda slept through the third season and the last season shook me off for a bit.

but why?

why is it worth 12-13 more than a CD version and 14k more than a production version?

I don't see the value.

Edit: oh, I see now. it has DRRBS and comes with a COA coin. Totally worth it.

FFS, the money grab is getting ridiculous. Microsoft and Apple are vying for most valuable company status at $3T each, Shiro can't be far behind at these prices.

What's the better knife overall, large Sebenza  31 Magnacut or a Spartan Harsey in Magnacut? Not sure if the Harsey might be too decorative for me or not.

depends on what you mean by better.

the CRk 31 is a great knife. I have no interest in prior Sebbies, but they got it right with this one (coughcoughinkosidesigncuescoughcough)

I have more than one Harsey so I was going to let one go, and just in handling for sale consideration, I was reminded how much I like it. It is a good design and I like the graphic. If you want to check it out we can talk.

CRK

The only thing Spartan does better than CRK is the laser engraving. They do several other things as good or almost as good, but I prefer CRK's overall. I like the blade profile better, the knife is lighter, and it feels better in the hand.

I agree with that generally, but the Spartan has it's own place. i do enjoy the design. It is more rugged/aggressive than the CRK.

I thought you posted a rant a year or more back about the designer basically just taking other's ideas (e.g. CRK) but acting all special or something.
Link Posted: 1/17/2024 6:10:31 PM EDT
[Last Edit: WIC] [#50]
If I was going to rant it would be that Harsey is a bit full of himself. He has a good design, but it is the laser work by Spartan that sells his knife in the numbers they do, not necessarily his work. Seems like a lot of designers get a bit full of themselves. And none of them are as prolific as Emerson.

Edit: But yes, if you think about it, it is a ti framed knife using the RIL with a stainless blade. CRK was first to do it, everyone since is just a variation of his design.
