Any recommendations? I know the steels are similar.

You don’t know the specific scenario, you just get to pick two knives made from 1095 to take with you. Who does the best job with 1095? ESEE, KA-BAR, TOPS, etc? TOPS seem to have the biggest variety of knives but I think my first pick would be a Becker BK9, followed by a smaller knife like an...

Benchmade Hidden Canyon?

Cheers mate, it looks great. Can you use that fresh and sea fishing? What would be the minimal kit you’d take to accompany the rod if you were trying to survive for a week or two and catch your own food?

Ah, fair enough mate. I just saw their Instagram posts of all their finished production and hoped that something had finally clicked for them. I like the look of their knives.

@Lore @marcoruhland I have my Fehrman now, so my attention’s moved from large 3v knives for the time being, but during the hunt I started following Survive! knives on Instagram and they’ve now completed their move to a new workshop and are making and shipping large batches now, so if you two...

Many thanks to everyone involved in the process of guiding me in the right direction, but particularly @xellos99 The Fehrman arrived today and it’s in great condition, just as the photos showed.

Yeah, that’s true. Although the chances of someone who only currently owns a slightly iffy folder being adept at making their own knife handles is slim. I’m pretty sure the Eldris and the Necker are the same steel, too.

If you wanted to spend a little more for a nicer looking knife, the Brisa Necker’s a 70mm blade. https://www.lamnia.com/en/p/41234/knives/brisa-necker-70-scandi-neck-knife-curly-birch

For the money, you can’t go too far wrong with a Mora Eldris. It matches your spec, too. https://heinnie.com/mora-eldris

It’s true with creationists, too. They always want evolutionary biologists to find the ‘missing link’ between two fossils. When one turns up that’s in between, it just creates two more missing links!

Cheers mate.

Haha, yeah. I know what you mean about the hunt never ending. When I agreed a price on that Fehrman I had a bit of a relieved feeling that I’ve finally filled that, ‘large, tough, high quality knife’ spot in my collection, but all it did was make me wonder if I’ve got the small, high quality...

My collection is as follows: TOPS mini pry Mora Firestarter More Garberg Carbon Fallkniven F1X in Elmax Semi custom Bradford Guardian 4.5 in Elmax Benchmade Leuku TRC South Pole TRC Apocalypse

Thanks for the help everyone. I bought the Fehrman Final Judgement from @xellos99 yesterday. It looks perfect for what I want. Really well heat-treated 3V, over 6mm thick at the spine, and 15” long overall.

Bark River Ultralite bushcrafter in Elmax, I reckon.

The deal is done! Thanks very much for your help, mate. I’ve sent the money, just awaiting the knife now. I read a lot about Fehrman knives over the past couple of days and as long as it’s in good condition like the photos I’m very happy with my decision. That’s my hunt for a large 3v knife over.

Thanks mate, that’s a much better way of explaining things. I’ll do that.

I’ve been informed via a private message that bidding is rude. I didn’t realise that. I’m new to the forum and this is my first time looking at the stuff being sold. I’m not here to offend anyone.

Sorry? Are you referring to me?
