>>61530747How do I mount a sheath to my molle battle belt?
>>61530747That's a shovel retard
>>61530760And they're retarded at shoveling. An actual e-tool does everything so much better for that size.
>>61530892What is that thing if not an E-tool? It's certainly not a traditional shovel nor spade.
>>61530892It's for hitting people in the head. Let's not beat around the bush
>>61531051It looks to me like it's for taking dumb photos for social media, that thing shows zero signs of being used or even having been sharpened in preparation for use. This is like women taking pictures of kitchen tools they don't actually use just to post pictures on facebook
>>61531059It was taken on the day i received it, so it's not been used
>>61531068So what was the purpose of the picture? Did the cute guys online like it?
>>61531078You are already boring me
>>61531033Was thinking more like pic. The triangle shaped handle helps a fuck ton with digging, the jabby haft of the cold steel does not. Most e-tools can convert into a hoe of some sort too so you can scrape as well as dig. Like >>61531033 says though, people are gonna get it for whacking other people with.
>>61531090I don't give a shit. Entertainment is besides the point, and you forgot to answer my question.
>>61531123*pisses in your mouth*Shudda kept it shut, bitch
>>61530747>shovel editionI'll raise you
>>61531170No thanks, i already have parents
61531128>talking like a retardthis is why you don't even deserve a (you). if you want interaction, answer the question.
>>61531198*pisses in your mouth again*I'm starting to think you like this, boy
>>61530747>>61531170
>>61531214Titanium?
>>61531223Lolno.why is OP acting like a retard ITT? I assume it's the usual shit, broken home, shit diet, failure parents, but it would be nice to actually know.
>>61531251I (OP) saw a fag who i recognize and know likes to post shitty bait and i decided to neuter him before he got too uppity
>>61530747I forgot I had picrel in the back of my truck but would like to get a thwacking shovel like OP.
>>61531188
My mf0 is late. Best case scenario i get a refund and the knife arrives later anyway
>>61531120>Most e-tools can convert into a hoe of some sortso basically your mom is an e-tool? for my p-tool?
>>61531755>$300>liner lock>58 HRC N690>2.7"that's a really expensive tape cutter/potato chip bag opener you got
>>61531962I'm not paying for it so it's fine
>>61531445is this what you use to hide the bodies?
Actual /kg/ thread:>>61532132 >>61532132 >>61532132
can you imagine, for a second, being Ron Goldman? You're banging the ultimate 10/10 square jawed blonde white poonani. You're stealing it from a goddamn professional athlete. You're actually kind of a loser, you're basically just Joey from friends, but like Joey you can still sling dick in spite of your circumstances. You're a Jew but you have the looks and the cock of an Italian. Your life is amazing right now, crazy, beautiful, you're in Nicole's gorgeous house, holy shit you're going to get laid tonight, you're going to blast ropes in this bombshell and cuck OJ fucking Simpson.and then he shows up. the Juice is Loose. he sneaks up on you and holds you still with the knife. you freeze, unsure what the fuck is going on. he pokes your cheeks with it. sadistically, he prods you and draws blood, tears your cheeks up, again and again, taunting you. in that moment you realize the truth. you realize he's here to kill you.you fight back. you take off his glove as you take his hand off of you. you're strong. you were always strong. you're a 3rd degree black belt. sure OJ is an incredible athlete; but what has he studied? just how to catch balls. you've studied how to fight. so you try to fight. but they didn't train you much for this. there isn't a lot of stuff about dealing with knives. let alone live exercises about dealing with knives. oh. you can't block it. oh. your hands are being destroyed. your arms are being destroyed. like in a dream, your attempts to fight are useless. training since 12 years old but all it can do is delay the inevitable. you try to escape but all you find are fences. Nicole is dead. you're stabbed in the abdominal artery. the blood pours out from your body and drenches your jeans. you slump to the ground in a seated position. you die, at least, like a warrior.

>>61531170>fudd shovelimagine not having the most tacticool shovel for operating operationally
>>61531922Sigh, kek.
>>61532351You would really have to hate roots to get a shovel like that
Post your newly acquire knives
>>61532505I've only got a shovel until my extrema ratio shows up
>>61531139Who's dirt?
Yes, it's a dagger
>>61531120bolt a folding pick stock onto it. works wonders, make a leather sheath for the pick/handle part or just always wear gloves, youll rip up your hands if not

>>61531223grade 5 titanium alloy
>>61537007Doubt it
>>61537023I had one, it was legitnonmagnetic, no coating, indestructible as fuck
>>61537089I've seen russian grade 1 shovel heads and know they exist but not 5
>>61537099it says it on the sticker
>>61537464Ok, retard
Anyone have any recommendations on a sub 60$ wharncliffe style folder. Preferably something that is assisted with a framelock. I know some people don’t like assisted for self defense but it’s not a problem for me. I don’t use /k/ very much so sorry if this question has been asked I’m kinda new to knifes
>>61537879Kershaw Leek, Kershaw Deadline, KABAR JaroszNone of these are really designs I would want to use in a fight for my life, but you do you king
>>61537879Leek is pretty much exactly what you're asking for.
>>61537915 I’ve looked at the leek before and it looks too slippery I want something with g10. The deadline looks like it has ok texture but not really want I’m looking for. The k bar isn’t legal for me to conceal carry sadly
>>61537879Kershaw leek
>>61537515don't you have some 12yo spergs to be oppressing
>>61538408Today is the day i shit on retards
>>61537950It’s the Jarosz model 7508, it’s a frame lock folding knife, not the big fixed blade
I miss Phi. It's a shame that insecure egoists chased him away because they can't handle being schooled by someone who's more knowledgable than they are
>>61539935What happened to Phiggot?
>>61540528Dunno. He just hasn't posted in a while
>>61531188Tbh if my kid started posting our garden tools online I wouldn't know what to do either and probably let him continue to post in his autistic thread so long as he avoids giving away our address.
>>61540962Sounded funnier in your head?
>>61540993Sounded funnier in your head?
>>61541098Was that all it took to break you?
>>61538788Oh thank you yeah that one looks pretty good I like the g 10 it’s very easy to hold onto. It’s a shame about the leek I know a lot of people like those but it also looks like it would be real easy to have your hand slip into the blade if you needed to use it
>>61538788Eh I’m looking at a review for it and I don’t like the tip the angle doesn’t look good for thrusting like I’ve seen on other wharncliffes I guess the search continues thanks for the recommendations tho
Which knives would you buy if money wasn't an issue? What would you use them for?
>>61541967If money wasn't an issue then i'd live somewhere i could own all knives of all types and i'd get swords and a bunch of microtech automatics
>>61541967among other things, a Stefan Steigerwald model Assist. neat custom folder, it's got a switch where you can turn the assist mechanism on and off. but costs like 3k so not a reasonable purchase for me, that's almost a month's salary before taxes. also I'd buy a house with a workshop and the means to make knives myself (as well as take training to learn how to use milling machines etc.). I do have an engineering background but pretty much only the CAD side of things.

>>61530747Hello, /k/.This is my first post here. What should I look for in a knife/knives? I'm not sure where to begin. Something good for an every day carry and for camping/hiking/bushcraft, if such a thing exists.About the only thing I know is that it's good to have the metal/blade part of the knife extend all the way to the end of the handle, as opposed to having "two separate halves." Not sure if I'm explaining that very well.Thanks very much.
>>61545990>Something good for an every day carry and for camping/hiking/bushcraft, if such a thing existsUnless you can feasibly carry around a 5"+ fixed blade day to day, you're not going to find one knife that fits all those criteria.
Stroup knives - generally good or?just want a "primitive" looking kind of fixed blade for general use, 3-4" blade, would like a little nicer steel than 1095, but oh well.
>>61546010Good point, and I'm embarrassed for no thinking about that as I typed my post. I'd be grateful for recommendations on either or both.
>>61545990A basic mora could very well be enough for your basic camping and bushcrafting needs with you aren't too rough with itFor every day carry i recommend something with a wharncliffe or a drop point blade, generally >recommendationsKizer assassinKizer cryptidKizer vanguardKizer sub 3Kizer bratKizer drop bearPretty much any spyderco knifeBenchmade presidioBenchmade griptillianCivivi elementumCivivi qubitCivivi visionCivivi praxisCivivi conspirator
>>61545990I forgot the vosteed knives. Check them out too
IDGAF aboutbut i like this thread better
>>61531033It's an American sized poop trowel of course.We make em big. We dump em big. Das rite.
>>61530747I like ur cat
>>61531973Chop and drop>inb4 Mesa bone collector.
>>61537879there's several Byrd models that have wharncliffe variants. (Byrd is the budget line of Spyderco) . all are available in plain edge and fully serrated versions. In order from largest to smallest: Cara Cara 2 (pic related), Harrier 2, Meadowlark 2, Robin 2.all have this textured frn handle. not sure if the wharncliffe variants are available in G10. either way it's quite grippy.
>>61546330Thank you, but God damn, that's a lot. Any way to narrow things down? Personal favs?
>>61553261https://www.knifecenter.com/item/VSDA2903/vosteed-knives-raccoon-button-lock-folding-knife-sandvik-14c28n-satin-drop-point-blade-black-micarta-handlesGreat price with a strong and reliable lock, the top liner lock which is a liner lock with a buttom, similar to the one spyderco makes
>>61550898I decided to just get something else. I ordered a kershaw 4kxl because it has the wave feature and it’s a big ass spearpoint. Tho now I kinda wish I got the 7k instead because the tanto is very aesthetic. I’ll probably look into these things next month thank you I appreciate it. I really want a yojimbo 2 but they are like 200$ which is way too much.
>>61554627Cqc 4kxl* excuse me
>>61554661I have that one too and i got my cousin the tanto version
>>61554627the blade hq exclusive with M4 steel is a bit cheaper at 165
>>61555778How do you like the wave feature? I’m a bit worried there might be some potential to cut myself when deploying the knife.>>61557173I’m a neet so even that is expensive I’d have to save up for a few months and at that point I’d just get the better steel one day tho. I think I’m gonna end up spending way too much money with this new little hobby.
>>61557662>How do you like the wave feature? I’m a bit worried there might be some potential to cut myself when deploying the knife.I like it. It's very useful and you won't cut yourself unless it's on purpose
>>61530747Vvvvvhm, is that really a knife?
>>61530747>(You)>buys cold steel>completely mint condition, absolutely never been used>takes pictures to brag on the internet for some reasonyeah that tracks
>>61557662I've never been in a situation where I had to save up for months for something $200, but I understand. also M4 is the better steel in many regards actually, its main downside compared to S30V is that it's not stainless.
What's the fixed blade gerber knife that isnt trash for basic outdoors stuff? Is it the strongarm?
Stop bumping this fake ass thread and post in the real one >>>61532132
This is the real knife thread?Sweet.
>>61554015Thanks, bro. I'm on it.
>>61554015>>61563924By the way, you're recommending this as a dailey carry? Why wouldn't this also work for camping/bushcraft as well? Sorry for being retarded. I'm just trying to figure out if you really need two knives.
>>61563130>mint conditionPicture was taken on tge day it arrived, retard>>61568422It's for every day carry. It's too thin for bushcrafting and a scandi edge would serve you better
>>61571648OK, thanks again.
>>61571648>>mint condition>Picture was taken on tge day it arrived, retarddon't you think you should maybe take updated pictures then definitely proving to the internet that you've used your very awesome elite tough guy shovel? I mean you wouldn't want anybody to think you bought a shovel and never touched it again right? Should be no problem for you assuming you've actually used your murder machine awesome cool spetznaz shovel like you're pretending right
>>61573973Man, i can't tell you how bored i am of this type of uncreative retard tier bait after all these years here. It's like your type is being mass produced in a factory
>>61573973>proving to the internetTouch gras
>>61531755i find it weird how the heel of the blade isn't sharpened despite the grind clearly suggesting it
>>61573992>>61577616I guess I can rest assured that that shovel is still in pristine, unused, mint condition
it's over
>>61579947That's good news for some. I'd rather have an actual knife AND a swiss army not-knife
