>>27679217leafsprings make shitty knives. start with shit metal, finish with shit metal. the metal I use depends on what I am making/forging that day, and it all comes from the Steel Baron in Jersey.
I would be lying though if I said I didn't love working with a simple, basic 1095.
>you pay for qualityno, you pay for perceived quality because of a name. it's cool man, I get it, you talk about quality so you feel justified in your purchase. But a .99 knife from the Dollar Store will kill you just as dead, and i know ... i know, "in a [insert scenario]" it won't fail on me. Even though the real chances of [insert scenario] is likely very slim.
I understand the value of a good knife, truly I do, but for the price of your precious Senebza you pick up 3 other knives, all just as good quality and would work under pressure of your [insert scenario].
