    I bought a Schrade Imperial Stockman off Amazon for $12. It amazes me that this can be had for $12. It does not feel like a cheap knife. It is built very well. I put 20 degree edges on the three blades with a Lansky system. Great box cutter and with three blades one is always sharp between strop touch ups.

    I appreciate your reviews George, you're not a knife snob like so many others are. You give honest reviews to knives that working folks like myself would buy for daily use. I also have expensive knives, but I value some of my bargain blades equally as much. That said, I can remember when these Imperial Sodbusters were still made in Ireland and sold at Walmart in the 1990s for $5. The new Chinese made sodbusters are actually better, not because of build quality, but because cutlery steel has come such a long way over the years, even the Chinese stuff.

    Bought one finally. For the price it is outstanding. If I was very fussy, the grind is a little off at the tip and it needs a good clean inside but it's still usable as is. I just wanted something light and useful I could throw in my backpack in winter and wouldn't have to think about it if it gets soaked. Job done!

    Ahhh the good ol sodbuster pattern, I actually saw a whole plastic jar of them at my local hardware store and get this they were USA made and only $2 each!!! I had to grab a handful of them babies and I believe I still have a couple the steel on them was a 420hc and I don't know if they were factory 2nds or what the deal was because you couldn't make the knife for under $2 just keeping the lights on in a shop so they're working for free selling them that cheap lol the only reason I don't still have them all was because I'd be carrying and using then and come upon a gentleman who didn't own a knife and felt the need to gift it them as they really were great little pocket knives but I must correct you it is not a liner-lock just a slip joint...

    Simple classy slipjoint knife, great presentation. The blade seems to be made with 7Cr steel which is the Chinese modified equivalent of 440A (and somewhere between aus-6 and aus-8). Enough for a knife that you carry in your pocket all day long in order to do light tasks I guess. I will order one soon, in order to compare it with my Opinel 8 with 12C27 inox blade.

    • @2ndchancegeorge
      @2ndchancegeorge  Рік тому

    Looks like the perfect garden knife. I like the price, too. I tend to buy bone-handled knives, but like the light-weight bright-colored plastic ones for the garden. And I’m in the garden hours every day. Only need one blade. Okay, it could have a lanyard hole, so it’s not quite perfect. Another one I’d like to try is the Marbles Reaper in G10. G10 liners, even. Crazy.

    It's capable. Good knife. I carry it over my case. The case stays sharper but I use my knife everyday where sharp and sharper make less difference than if you can manage not to drag it over something that'll dull either. While I like the case better, I like that this pattern is the real workhorse and that I can put my case up safe and beat the hell out of this third the price knife with confidence.

    I have Sodbusters from Case, GEC, Maserin, and a bunch of other companies, but that Imperial punches way above its weight. I've owned, and gifted, loads of them. Great choice 👍That's a slipjoint, rather than a liner-lock though George, and it's a long time since they used celluloid :)

    • @2ndchancegeorge
      @2ndchancegeorge  2 роки тому +1

      @JackBlack-gh5yf 2 роки тому +2

      @@2ndchancegeorge LOL! That's right, it's probably closest to Delrin, though it isn't actually Delrin. Celluloid was pretty unstable, capable of corroding your whole knife collection, and even exploding. 'Plastic' covers a lot of ground :)
