New pocket knife help

[Johnnyboy1971]

In looking for a new folder to carry and the two I have seen are the
Bushcraft store Boar folder and the Enzo PK70.
Does anyone use either of these and do you rate them as good or poor.

Got a boar folder.
beautiful knife. Happily does everythin bar battoning very tactile too

Did you get the carbon one or stainless.

I've got a Boar folder, lovely knife and can't fault it. The PK70 looks nice but twice to three times the price. To be honest most of the time at the moment I carry my Boker Nano 42 a tiny knife but does all I need day to day and fits in a jeans ticket pocket.

I've got the Enzo PK70 and it's beautifully made, the blade is S30V stainless steel and available in either scandi or flat grind.

I got to handle a few of the TBS Boar folders at the recent Buscraft Show. They appeared to be a nice solid knife available in a lot of configurations, including locking versions. A lot heavier than the PK70 though!

It really depends on what you're intending to use it for. Personally I think the PK70 is worth the premium in price.

I have the EDC boar with black micarta handles. Solid little knife.

I have the Boar TSB folder with Turkish walnut scales, it's a very versatile knife, I use mine for carving spoons when I'm out camping. Now one thing with the one that I have is the blade is slightly bent, it Pi**ed me off a bit but at the time I didn't send it back as I was unwell. I must say it is rock solid in use.

Probably has to sell to fund the pk70...

Also have the boar folder (curly birch carbon) and really like it. Will easily deal with all camp tasks except battoning and is a good carver too.
Feels good in the hand and has a good sharp spine for a ferry rod.

Well worth selling it then.
