Really nice comparison! Im considering the barebone just because of the way you describe it and how it fits my style. I do however prefer the look of the kraken and have decided to speed channel my kraken handles soon to see if that helps!

Also forgot to mention that the Barebones is one of the most punishing knives if you screw up with it. But I agree that the Barebones has a better balance than the Kraken, definitely one of the most slept on knives.

is it just me? I really don’t like aluminum balis. I’m used to titanium and most of these aluminum balis feel so slippery like they’re covered with oil in comparison. I figure it out, that polishing my titanium balis makes the grip even better and best of all it dries your hands much less! But I never tried that with one of my aluminum ones…
@James-vq1bp Жыл бұрын
They are slipperier but once you get used to it you won’t notice anymore. Just takes time. I think for the trade off it’s worth it for the weight and price

I find that the alu bb/Channel BB is super underrated "platform?" to mod, to flip and overall underrated. I like krakens, but I've only had bad experiences with them, I've never really heard tolorance issues with a alubb/Channel BB.
@James-vq1bp Жыл бұрын
There’s only a few things i can think that you can do to the barebones to mod it. I’d say go with a rep for mods

Sure it is for materials. but if your specifically looking for something lighter and aluminum go with one of these. There’s lots of stuff that’s good in this price range
