I believe it's micarta, it's very smooth and a bit slick. But on this knife, the overall ergonomics of the handle with the addition of the jimping on the blade make side traction not as necessary, says me.
It’s kinda amazing how much we take for granted the smoothness of pivots nowadays. Pinned construction had to be worked or lapped looser; it also happened naturally with use and time. I remember when companies were still figuring out detent type and tension on flippers. Remember the first ever Benchmade axis lock flipper? Oof that one was bad. Kershaw/ZT were some of the first, as I recall, to get it right and then more of the industry followed suit haha.
I canada 2024 i just ordered the orange version of this one on sale for $69. The medium Luzon is a match to the ti-lite 4" and i like it, the medium i had no problem with the wave, I'll be definitely testing the large when it arrives. Appreciate your take on this blade
Ich habe mich durch nahezu alle Sorten getestet. Mit stillem Wasser schmeckt es mir ganz furchtbar. Mit ganz wenig stillem Wasser gemischt, geshaked und dann mit eiskaltem, kohlensäurehaltigen Wasser aufgefüllt geht es, aber auch so schmeckt mir nichts davon. Es setzt sich sehr schnell am Boden ab. Für Vieltrinker enthält es zu viel Grüntee-Extrakt, einer am Tag wäre ok. Umgerechnet auf Liter und Aufwand ergibt sich für mich keine Kostenersparnis, wenn man teures Energy im Angebot kauft, so dass ich persönlich von Holy abraten muss. So macht halt jeder seine eigenen Erfahrungen. Trinkst du das regelmäßig oder machst du jetzt nur auch Werbung dafür? Lg
Amazing video man you didn’t forget one version they made a slightly different tanto in the large and lx models called the gunsite had a combo edge , different gimmping and a faux edge
In a previous posting I allude to the 19th century 10 or 12 gauge percussion double-barrel muzzle loading shotgun. This of course, is a modern Italian built reproduction of a 19th century original. The shotgun, especially the double-barrel, both muzzle loading and breech loading, was perhaps the most ubiquitous black powder firearm on the 19th century Western Frontier (1850-1890). And with civilians (non-military) during the Civil War (1861-1865). This shotgun, depicted in the 2003 movie, "Cold Mountain". With the smoothbore shotgun, primarily in 10 or 12 gauge, the farmer homesteader, plantation owner or worker (mainly in the former Confederate or Southern States), prospectors (out West) etc. could provide both fresh game for the table, and guard and protect the isolated farmhouse, homestead shack or cabin, or the mining claim. Even wagon train emigrants along the Oregon and Applegate Trails commonly stashed a loaded shotgun behind the seat of a covered wagon, back in the 1850's. This historical reproduction was stamped on barrel rib, "Navy Arms Co. Model 100", and was sold via Navy Arms Co., Dixie Gun Works, Cabela's, etc. Built of high strength modern steels (the originals had Belgian Damascus or "twist" barrels) , chrome lined barrels and choked bores, and precise modern manufacturing, These are superior and far safer to fire than their 19th century antiquated predecessors. This is what was once defined "Homeland Security!" Back in my late great grandfather's youth (1880-1964,) and the late Anna Jones of Paisley, Oregon in Lake County (1882-1974) , this was very true indeed! This shotgun would have also been seen on the Little House On The Prairie T.V. series from the 1970's to early 1980's. Contrast to today's anti-gun, "surrender, submit, and bend over bare assed butt up to the brute with the bullwhip" mentality, that deceitfully pontificates: "having a gun in the home triples the chance of homicide, suicide, or turning the gun on yourself!" Especially aimed at handgun ownership. Again, this is odious, vile, deceitful %^&* that promotes victimhood, dependency, and LBJ/LGB style political deceit! ---James A. "Jim" Farmer Klamath County, Oregon. Long Live The State of Jefferson! My point: Like the .38 Special revolver, the venerable, historical, and versatile double-barrel shotgun will never become obsolete. I realize in my above posting I allude to the percussion double-barrel muzzle loading shotgun. But this Stoeger 12 stagecoach shotgun is still practical and useful in the 21st century. Advantage of owning this shotgun: practical and useful for keeping inside the house (Homeland Security). Too, keeping stored inside your motorhome, R.V. or whatever while driving on a long distance interstate road trip. image.png
The Dutch bushcraft boys abused the hell out of the S35 7.5" version of this knife and could not break it. I would definitely take the S35 version over the G-10 AUS10. You get what you pay for !
Mine has never jammed but I make sure I shoot the proper rounds I even use 19 round banana clips, my cocking handle flew out and is lost in the woods but a short handled flat head screwdriver works just fine. I'm keeping mine .
I have a knife from Harbor Freight just to keep in my office, but half the blade is serrated, and I hate that. Picked up this Ozark Trail knife for $2.50 on clearance and I am quite happy with it. Your review is spot on. My EDC is a $3 flea market find that works just fine because I tend to regularly lose my pocket knives.
I've got the double stack, 5", no rail and cc it with 4 spare mags and 1 in the firearm. I know, overkill. but with the holster, which rhymes with vanish, distributing weight so well it works. I'm in Florida, wear shorts all the time, an outside the waistband dark shirt with a design and sandles, I just look like some average Florida dude. Love the pistol, only thing I don't like about the holster is the 1" of the front of the firearm that hangs out of the holster chafs my fragile leg skin, funny, the front edge of the pistol is the only slightly sharp edges, not bad but you just have to adjust the holster for the sweet spot. Would buy another one in a heartbeat.
For the original Ti lite run, the aluminum handle model had the double holes milled out and the zytel handle had single milled holes, like the hold out and counter point (but with the allumunin liners) in the new runs both the zytel and aluminum have the double holes milled.
Looks just like my Stoeger/Uberti .44-40 same brass backstrap and trigger guard,color-cased frame & trigger and 5.5"blued barrel which is my preferred bbl length(Artillery model design). I don't think they are necessarily a bad defense choice either. That type of gun will invariably prompt you to focus on making more deliberate and calculated responses in any situation. Everything has an advantage and a disadvantage. Was a time when a lot of western people wouldn't carry anything else. I would not feel undergunned with my singles anymore than with my swing-out cylinder dbl-actions. And a side arm is just to hold you till you get to your long-arm!
It's called lockstick normally because two different hardnesses of steel one's gummier than the other so it forces it to manipulate. But you're right, given time it should kind of wear itself in
● "CABELAS" in South Carolina Charged Me $680.00 for Mine(Expensive), Compared to Your Price..DANG IT !!!....But I Still Love My..."GLOXX☆ROXX" N' ROLL.🤙💥🤙
Thanks for the review, been having my sights on this gun & honestly I’m probably going to be carrying condition 3 especially in my area where it’s pretty safe.
