Walked right into what exactly? If crompsin has some sort of class warfare issues with me buying a good knife, that's his issue. The issue I have with you is that you infect this particular forum with your negative crap constantly. All I ever see you do here is shit on other peoples choices and opinions, whilst offering nothing at all of substance to back up your opinions.

And, just to stay on topic:

BOS does heat treat Stryder knives, but that is not what makes them great knives, it simply adds to it. They are made of S30V steel, which quite frankly beats the shit out of 1095, as well it should, it costs more, and it is a modern knife. I know a lot of people take issue with Mick Strider, but you are the first person I have ever heard criticize his product (not that I valued your opinion much to begin with).

The Ka-Bar is over 60 years old, technology has progressed a bit since they were conceived. I am not saying they are bad knives, I'm saying that, just like with guns, you get what you pay for. If I want a nice looking knife for a shadowbox, I'll buy a Ka-Bar, most of thier knives are commemorative editions anyway. I prefer hard facts to nostalgia.

Oh, by the way, who did Det 1 choose to make their issue knife?
