Re: DueBuoi Forged Stiletto: fast or smooth action?

I prefer the fastest, hardest hitting action that can be accommodated without destroying the knife. But that is the trick, isn't it ;*) They need a 10,000 click minimum warranty, and I offer myself as Quality Assurance Tester, just send me the knives you want tested. I don't own a Due Buoi (yet). He...

Oops, I shouldn't leave my visor down when I let off a blast.
I see now Mr. of athens reopened a very old thread. Nothing

Welcome Mr Vanagas, Quality, like JerrBear's cheap beer, is in the taste of the drinker. Are the Italians quality? Well, they tend to be better than the clones, but some folks around here are very picky. A "quality" knife can cost you upwards of $1000. I have purchased knives from both ends of the s...

Doomed? Probably not in what's left of your lifetime. I find hope in the grass roots pockets of sanity and intelligence. It may take many generations to breed out the greed and laziness though. I've been a "grouchy old bastard" since I was 25 :wink: 34 years later I still am :!: I have zero toleranc...

You said favorite, not loudest, and my favorite is an 11 swingguard.
They make a musical snick sound that raises the hair on the back of your
neck.

That sounds like a nice looking knife, and I'm sure Paul would make you one (though it would say Burn rather than Frank B.), probably cost you about $2,000. http://www.burnknives1.com/homestartpage2.html I'd go with the lighsabre too... or lightdagger. Whatever comes out first. My dream blade would ...
