It saves the wear and tear on my crosscuts and chainsaws plus its better for the environment! Its so sharp, all I have to do is point it at a tree and it falls down into split, dry 16" pieces.  I've got to get cracking on the woodpile, we're supposed to have a killing frost Wednesday and I have about 2/3 of my wood split. I burn about 6-8 full cords a winter. I actually did chop through a 2 X 4 with it. Still shaved after I was done. |

A killing frost on Weds?? Seriously? It's only about 105 today and yesterday we tied the 1980 record for the most 100+ degree days in a year. Today we break it.  Now what were you saying about this thing called a frost and a wood pile? |

I'll take the frost and woodpile anytime over 100+ weather - we actually had a couple days in the 100's here. 102 in the summer and -25 in the winter - and they call it the temperate zone.

I'd like to look at one of those Kershaw Rake folders as an EDC knife. The pictures are pretty but handling them tells more of the story.

 A little hunter I just finished Forged from 1080, clay differential heat treated with Bocote handle and brass pins. Its a sharp little bugger - It bit me pretty good while I was polishing it. |

Hi people's,
Looking for advice, never bought a folding knife before. I'm looking for a really nice quality folding knife that looks like the kind your Grandad would have had, something that looks kinda old, classy but great quality and holds a really good edge.
I've checked though most of the links on this thread and found loads of really nice tacticals but nothing that fits the above description, any ideas?
Thanks
