      Finally something affordable. Nice testing basically what you might actually do with it. Every day carry. I do use the pouch to carry. But sometimes take the pocket clip off and pocket carry. But the pouch is there so I remember to put it back. Most of the time.

      Exactly. That’s the first thing I saw. It’s a soft 2x4. If she went with the grain it would have gone through in two hits. But that she went against the grain and the knife survived, is impressive.
