Material changes all the time.
But I believe the standard Izula 1095 Steel - 57 Rc material will hold an edge better, and cut better dull or sharp compared to Stainless Steel. Depends how that batch is heat treated and such. Are you just out for the stainless? Might have luck hunting on down on knife forums.

i want one of the SMF aluminum handle ones hnnnnnnnnnnnng
or a strider PT for edc
I was going to buy an SNG a while ago but then I looked into the state of the strider knock off market and it scared me off. I'd be loathe to drop 4-500 on a folder to start with and the knock offs are so good and so common that I could never pull the trigger. There are lots of videos on youtube showing how hard it is to spot the fakes."I'm not like most girls." -most girls

yeah but id hate to get caught on campus with something as big as an smf or even an sng, just because the striders look bigger cause they are massive. i carry a tanto grip everyday now which is 3.45 inch blade. idk why i think id get caught. the problem is that i really want the aluminum handled smf, but a 4 inch blade is huge, plus idk if im even allowed to carry knives on my person in nj srs. and they dont make the sng or the pt with the aluminum. i want the aluminum grip because it looks awesome, and it will prevent any future blade play whereas the normal strider blade play comes when the scales get worn down. i hate blade play.
in conclusion, theres no fuking way ill be spending $500 on an aluminum handle smf until i have a job lol like a career

You won't get one that low but you can get a number of beckers for 60ish new. 90 would be an excellent deal on a 6. The bk10 is being re-released and looks pretty suave. Should be in that price range. bk7 is pretty similar to the 6 in size.

Wow, would have never guessed there would be so many blade freaks on this forum, so glad to see another thing in common. I can't post pics yet as I just signed up today and the forum requires 50 plus posts to do so, but I promise to post up my collection of folders and also the fixed blades I've made over the past two years. Damn near had a job at Chris Reeve, until they mentioned a piss test, and my dumb ass was smoking pot at the time, still think I shoulda just got some fake whizz. But whatev, I hear he's an ******* to work for anyway. Can't wait to show off muh blades haha

picked up a 561 for cheap. Its a big knife for a folder but definitely not too big. 1" on the 350 and very comfy in the hand. Its my first elmax knife which I heard can be a pain to sharpen but we'll see here soon.
edit: also. the knife connection is doing sales all month starting on the 15th. Their first sale is 10% off any esee knife and then a new sale each of the 3 subsequent weeks. Good deals to be hadLast edited by jafomofo; 07-10-2013 at 10:36 PM.
