I just got through flogging the BALLS off that white one, it tested out much like 3cr13 on my tests. The orange one however had INSANE performance. For $5 I'm cool with the white one. Great little novelty.

I purchased both. I got the orange one about 4 months ago and just picked it up because I was in the store and it looked interesting. I hadn’t heard about it before I saw it, I just grabbed it for a beater. I have to say for $10 I’ve been very impressed. It’s got to be real D2 for how well it’s been holding an edge. Very pleasantly surprised. A few weeks back I picked up the white one. Very poor quality and zero edge retention. I’ve sharpened it twice so far and it’s due for a touch up again. Save your money and get the orange one if you can find it. If I come across another orange one I’ll be sure to grab it.

I bought 2 orange and 2 white. I know the orange in d2 is "better", but I ended up keeping a white one and giving away the rest. I have high end knives, but there's something about this white ozark trail knife that I really enjoy. Can't stop carrying it.

For me as someone who uses, abuses, breaks and/or loses his knives......that orange one is perfect for me. If I could, I would buy 10 just as a supply for the next 10 years. I have purchased the latest wiz bang steel for crazy money......and it still get dull and breaks and gets lost just the same as a budget knife. D2 for the past like 13 years has been my go to since it's easy to sharpen and holds a edge decent. But for me as much as I use my knives, I rather have it be easy and quick to sharpen " 2 minutes" every few days of hard use.....then a super steel that takes 20 minutes every 3 days
@CanadaFree-ce9jn25 күн бұрын
The $10 one is what you hand to family, friends, co-workers when they ask to use your knife because they are too lazy to carry their own. If they break it, they are more likely to replace your $10 knife than your $200 knife.

Cool tool bro. I spent $50 on a flip knife with d2 about two years ago. I would definitely buy an Ozark trail withe d2 steel! Great knife, great price. I only wish it was made in the USA 🇺🇸. But for $10, who s complaining?
@CanadaFree-ce9jn25 күн бұрын
$50 for D2 is nothing, remember it used to be one of the "super steels" and went for a lot more. Super steels get replaced regularly, ATS34 used to be the super steel of it's day.
@richardrice506527 күн бұрын
Question for all of you knife guys and gals.....I'm new to yhe knife world. I'm thinking about buying a few of these to start practicing sharpening. Which one of these steels would be better to start off with? I'd rather practice on beater knifes. Thanks...
@CanadaFree-ce9jn25 күн бұрын
D2 is it closer to the super steels you will get now on the better brand names. There still is Buck and some Gerbers using 440 level steels. Anything soft will be easy to sharpen but won't hold as edge long. With harder steels you may have to go to diamond stones and not water strones.
@JohnDoe-zb7dz26 күн бұрын
Actually OT made an axis lock knife before these two. They are green with nice action. Unfortunately I fidgeted it until the omega spring broke. If you are a compulsive figit guy like me don't buy any spring knives. I even wore out Kershaw assist. The new OT D2 model holds an edge 3x longer than their cheaper 3cr steel. I recommend everyone knocking off the factory belt edge and give it superior stone edge. Your milage may vary. Cheers.

The full-length liners and D2 steel are DEFINITELY worth the additional $5 for the orange one, but $5 is great for a knife like that! I think of the $5 knives they are doing this year, the black tanto is the best, the black $5 fixed blade with the finger grooves is a STEAL!

I can't play with these knives, not on their Canadian site. Both are Canada legal, except our border services makes their own rules. They will take knives shipped to individuals but still let companies bring in the same knives. They also let Home Depot stock illegal flick knives. Even the package shows the knife being flicked open after the blade release button is pressed.
