    This really does have a simple and yet still exquisite design. As someone who uses knives both in camping/backpacking and cooking, I have some sense of a good blade design(though no expert), and the blade seems well designed for a useful pocket knife, the minimalist design is perfect for pocket carry and ease of use, And the lines are aesthetically perfect. The perfect pocket knife? And all hand made. Wonderfully done.

    Traditionally tantos don't have grip pads they're just a wooden block for the handle so you'd lose the traditional look, though I'm sure it would make it more comfortable to hold

  • @ussrbiker5715
    @ussrbiker57153 ай бұрын

    ножик получился очень красивый! но есть пара нюансов. очень большой угол сведения. такой грубый угол делается для прочности, когда ножом планируется работать в суровых условиях, что уже не актуально для складного ножа, но это еще ничего, а вот штифт заклепаный в миллиметровой латуни не самое надежное соединение. в таком случае куда логичнее было бы сделать клинок более острым, что б он идеально резал в не нагруженных условиях, потому что в нагруженых клинок выдержит, а вот заклепка нет. да и вообще какие тяжелые условия могут быть для складного ножа?))
