Nice! A big burly budget Bowie....and made in USA. I kept waiting for some bad news, but it never came. What a great value. I don't 'need' a chopper, or something big like this, but I may have to get one anyhow.

Been using the same one for 16 years. Used as an axe, hammer, thowing knife (for fun) small jobs, big jobs, cleaned hundreds of fish and hasnt failed once. I bought another a couple years ago. They changed the coating from smooth epoxy to traction. Mine still has some of the original coating above fhe grind. Also added o-rings to the handle

If you had yours that long,then you have the 1095 hc Steel version,that one is 1070 hc Steel with the new style sheath ,a lot of folks like the newer steel choice and the military still has the 1095 version made specifically for them. But the dearly are carrying the 1070 hc version and it is substantially less expensive for the consumer. 📸💰⚔️💰📸

I have this knife and love it. To improve the grip even more though try to find some multiple sized thick rubber “O” rings (found in the plumbing section of most hardware stores) and slide them up on to the handle into the slotted rings on the handle. Start and end with the smaller “O” rings and save the larger ones for the slots in the middle of the handle. Trust me, this mod is great for improving both the feel of the grip and for improving the retention of the knife when swinging heavily. Best part is if you don’t like it you can remove them and you only spent a few dollars.
@nitrorc4life1 6 жыл бұрын
Didn't like o ring idea, stock is better for me. Of course I have a tendency to prefer smooth handles though(far less chance of hot spots). I do not death grip knives when chopping as it fatigues hand to quickly, let the handle do the work and use a small pinky lanyard, fatigue will stay at bay much longer. To each their own though.

It's highly functional for sure, but I wish the bottom edge was straight. It appears to have a slight curve from tip to hilt. I've been trying to keep watch on prices. I almost got an SP-8 for $15.00, but the price was changed hours later. Then it was around $35 in December, but it changed too. The SP-53 is holding at $90. I'm glad you mentioned this facet of the knife industry. Between manufacturer and dealers, sometimes they promise a price, but it ends up higher while other models are often reduced and placed on sale regularly.

Well sadly, here we are in 2022 and just purchased a new Ontario SP 6 with I'm guessing their new 1075 steel and been trying to put a decent edge on this damn blade for hours. Absolutely unreal how damn steep the grinds are. So sitting here once again trying to bring that relief edge back down so it's at least usable for the stuff I like in my blades. Definitely planning on picking up this sp10 this week so I truly hope the edge is Abit better than the one on this sp6. Thanks for sharing man.

Just grabbed one of these. Looking for a chopper that could double as a stabber/hacker if things go pear shaped. Didn't see anything better under $50 and this video helped confirm that. Absolute beast. The new 1075 is fine for what it is intended to do. I carry a Fiskars hatchet I got 15 years ago for firewood chopping. This will be strapped to the outside of my pack for path clearing and zombie hacking duties. Happy Halloween. Hope you're enjoying the fall colors wherever you are.

For trimming eye pokers and other brush clearing it doesn't replace the machete but It's short enough that I don't have to take it off it's heavy enough that even if I can't see I can swing it around and anything that gets hit by it gets hit by the weight of a hammer and it doesn't have to move super fast to generate a lot of momentum so it replaces the hatchet and then of course there's the spear Factor. And then there's the guy in the gas mask who made a video showing what it took to break it and that inspires confidence so I call it worth its weight and it's in the grab bag

I wonder if they changed the grind as well because mine sure did come sharp but my BK9 out-performed it in every way. Still a great knife and I love it. It’s just badass. I was chopping some scrap wood and didn’t see a nail; chopped right through it with no damage to the edge 😳

Best thing about this knife is that I sold it for more than i bought it for. The grind is ridiculously thick (just compare it to something resonable like the bk9), hence it doesn't chop nearly as good as it should for the weight it has. And the sheath insert is actually shorter than the blade....
