So glad you touched on the Jimmy Lile & Jack W Crain knives of the 80s. As soon as I saw these on Marfione's IG I thought it is so close in design to those knives (particularly the Crain Life Support knife). It is such a great homage to those 2 knives.

When I first saw Jim's videos I simply could not understand the desire for flip knives/ autos, fixed blades just appealed more to me. But as I watched a few more videos I started to understand, now I really understand, and I'll admit I now own a few flippers and just can't get enough of them :)

Beautiful engineering and very desirable. Not expecting a full destruction test or anything, but a simple paper-cut demo (and perhaps a glass-break) test would be nice just to show that it can perform as a knife rather than pocket jewellery.

Used to do it (watch my really old videos), but it was pointless and just made a mess. What knife won;t cut paper? Even a "decent" knife will do that. Besides, in the price range I typically buy in, a damn sharp edge is a given ;-)

I think it's a grey area because the topside of the blade is not sharpened all the way, only a small portion. It's not a true double edge where each side has equal cutting edges.

It's a 16 inch tactical Bowie knife, the teeth on top go for nearly 6 inches, they are 1/4 wide, 1/4 tall, and are staggered to a needle point, tanto style blade, 2 inches tall and and the belly, and tapers from the belly 4 and a half inches then is strait, it's a monster, you probably wouldn't like it though. Whatever you stick the Bowie into, you are pulling out half of the guts when you pull it out, it's nasty.
