Ka-Bar Folding Hunter Lockback Knife vs Kershaw Link

Shall we, if you're new, to the channel, welcome here on fridays, we do mainly knife reviews, so occasionally i'll do a view of some associated surviv...

Totally bummed, They sent the Leek vs the Link. Completely different knife, different steel. I was really looking forward to having the Link with the CVS20. Sending it back

Razor sharp. All metal coated in gray but handle is G10 I believe, very solid construction and no wiggle in the blade at all. Fits nicely in medium hand or large hand but maybe not suited for women hands for EDC. Belt clip is sturdy

The flipper has nicely done jimping for fingertip traction. All edges are radiused and finished. The handle shape is fantastic for a secure hold and the aluminum scales are roughed up slightly for a good grip. The overall size is what is for me the max comfortable pocket carry size

when i first opened the box i was happy its a beautiful knife heavy tho very heavy, after having it for a few day the tip of the knife broke off, all i was doing was cutting a box open it was a thick cardboard box, but as soon as applied a little pressure to the cut it snapped off , i know have to reshape the knife with my grinder and belt abrasive belt sharpner to give it a point again, in my opinion a 4 day old knife should not break from regular use, ka-bar is still one of my favorite knifes but not this one,

That said, the flipping mechanism, though fast and fluid in its movements when you hit the switch, is heavy enough where I imagine it would take unusual pressure to have it deploy by accident. If you want a fast, satisfying, sharp flip knife, Kershaw makes some of my favorites.
