Cold Steel Recon 1 vs Victorinox Swiss Classic Paring Knife

Let me push cuts here, really testing out the ergonomics more than anything else in the edge geometry. You know, how is this flat grind? Compare that ...

It also says something, but it's almost unreadable because it is in the same, uh, same fabric, same color. Alright, so that's the knives. Um, did I fo...

Okay, so the weight of this knife is 150 point 25 grams, which is five point three ounces. The model number this one is 27 TL, c CH and sadly, but cau...

I had you know, really expensive paring knife and that parent knife got lost and I needed a paring knife because I was going into work and I picked th...

In short, it's overbuilt for box cutting and package opening--but it will certainly handle those kinds of tasks. But for what it is, a rock-solid folder and a huge hunk of very sharp S35vn, it's a great knife. What this knife is not: it's not a toy. If you need a fidget toy, this is not your best choice

Don't waste your money on anything more expensive than $10 because with the amount you'll be using these, like David Chang (famous chef) said, you'll go through them.

The build is so so. The blade is so poorly ground and dull that I would not buy again. Extremely difficult to sharpen and get a good edge. Every other Recon 1 I've owned (this is my fifth) was razor sharp and perfect

Disclaimer: Not a normal review, this is a vegetable knife, but also a very versatile butcher knife! If you are queasy, or anti-hunting/meat - probably not the best for you to read so avert your squimish little eyes, por favor. As an avid hunter/outdoorsman who processes their own game instead of taking it to a butcher, finding the right, no, perfect tools for the job make it much more pleasing and satisfying. If you don't like reading, let me just tell you right now, buy this knife; I have tried so many types of knives for processing deer and this is the best one hands down! During the 2020 hunting season I went to the butcher with a friend and noticed that ALL the butcher hands were prefering to using this knife and I mean they USED them. They struck bone, they dropped on the concrete, they were stepped on and tossed into a bin, they were abused

I think I've had pistols that are smaller than this knife. It wasn't the length that got me, it was the height. Just too big for a pocket. Having said that, the handle was great

I’d recommend sticking to the 3.25” I don’t know what ergonomic principle they were following with the handle. It is thin, hard plastic. The bolster extends past the edge, making it less nimble

In my search I was looking for a knife with a light weight, low profile, and with a thinner blade for slicing, not a bush beast to baton and chisel with. I wanted a good steel, a 3 1/2" - 4" blade, and either G10 or micarta scales. The search lead me to purchase the Recon 1. My first impressions are as follows: 1) It's a well built, quality knife with great attention to detail

it makes a great knife because of its super lightweight, weighing less than one else. Also, another nice thing about this knife is the price. It's ava...
