コールドスチール ポケット ブッシュマン CS95FB アウ

カーペンター社のCTS-BD1という鋼材がどんなのか気になって購入。 ブレードは研ぎ心地がとても良い。粒子が細かい感じがして、ステンレス鋼材の中では和鋼に近い印象。すぐに良い刃が付き、切れ味も素晴らしい。まだそれほど使い込んでいないが、刃持ちはそこそこ程度と予想。実用的に問題が出るほどヤワではないとは思う。 このナイフそのものの使い勝手は、なんというか独特すぎる。片手でパッと開いて作業してサッとしまう、などというのは無理。よく調べて自分に合うか検討してからの購入をおすすめしたい。 追記:藪を切り払う際に使ってみた。相当雑に振り回して切りまくったが、全くトラブルなし。楽に研げるのにこれだけ永切れするのは素晴らしい。馬鹿みたいに使いにくいロック機構も、こういった雑で長時間刃を出したままな使い方の場合は、誤ってロック解除される危険が少ないので向いている。 ただ、ナタよりはバランスが手元寄りなので疲れる。ナタの代用というより、バックアップ用と考えた方が良いように思う。

For what it is, it's a great knife! Simple, durable, built for working hard. I'd recommend it for hunting, camping, backpacking, farm/ranch work and tradesman work. It's NOT comparable to any "typical" EDC knife (which is fairly obvious). Pros: Good value per dollar. Cheap enough to replace if lost or broken. Strong materials and lock design. It'll take a beating and keep ya safe too! Simple parts and design. Gotta love K.I.S.S. Blade edge is sharp and well ground out of the box. Its a knife... I'd hope so... Cons: Not as one-handed friendly as some other knives for ease of opening and closing Slightly uncomfortable grip feel Bigger than most "pocket" knives. Would benefit from having a sheath included, because its a little too big for most pocket carry scenarios.

Sehr gutes Messer. Wer ein sehr robustes, schnitthaltiges Messer sucht, für einen schmalen Taler, ist hier gut beraten. Die Bedienung ist Übungssache. Irgendwann beherrscht man das im Schlaf. Man muss etwas am Messer arbeiten, wie z.B. den Fehlschliff nachschleifen, aber das ist normal. Alle Pocket Bushmans, haben diesen Fehlschliff. Der Pinn, läßt sich auch gut entfernen.Ich besitze mittlerweile fünf von diesen Messern. Was ich immer mache, ist, ich nehme es erstmal komplett auseinander und entgrate den Griff. Das ist wirklich nötig ubd verbessert wirklich das Handgefühl. Ich benutze dazu die blaue Polierscheibe von Proxxon. Das Messer kann sehr viel. Batoning, leichtes hacken, Küchenarbeiten, als Jagdmesser. Wenn man den Klingenrücken noch etwas anschleift, kann noch ein Feuerstahl bedient werden. Das Messer ist relativ leicht und flach. Es stört nicht in der Hosentasche. Die Federspannung ist so stramm, daß es nicht ohne Weiteres möglich ist, das Messer einhändig zu öffnen, wenn der Pinn entfernt wurde. Das garantiert zwar keine Rechtssicherheit, aber es ist wirklich nicht einhändig zu öffnen. Cold steel hat die Härte des 4116 Stahls erhöht, sodass anfängliche Probleme, behoben wurden. Meine Kaufempfehlung, aber man muss sich, wie gesagt, an das Messer gewöhnen und die Bedienung üben.

Una navaja bastante original, buen material y acabados, el diseño es bastante interesante aunque su apertura me parece un tanto deficiente no deja de ser una gran pieza de coleccion

Es una navaja a usar con las dos manos muy dura de Gabriel y serrar exelente filo

Probably as close to a fixed blade as a folding knife can come. Once it's open and locked up, this knife is impressively strong. The handle is made of one solid piece of folded steel, and the locking mechanism would need to be ridiculously abused in order to induce failure. Honestly, if you defeat the lock, you're doing things with this knife that nobody should be doing with any kind of knife, in just about any situation. Everyone seems to use batoning as some kind of knife-proving stress test: I'm not honestly sure why, since I've batoned wood for fires using all kinds of knives, folding and otherwise, in all kinds of environments in my travels. It strikes me that, if you're careful, you could baton wood with a dime-store nail file, but I digress. That said, I've batoned plenty of wood with this knife, with absolutely no discernible negative impact on either the blade edge or the lock-up, and without inducing any kind of blade play to the knife whatsoever. It is a well-made, impressively tough knife. For a folder, it's a beast. That is, big. However, it's slender and actually fits in the pocket as comfortably as my trusty and beloved Kershaw Leek. A couple of caveats: The locking mechanism is unique, using a necessarily powerful spring-actuated bolt that engages at the end of the handle. How many times have I pinched one of my fingers between the bolt and the handle while opening or closing the blade? Probably every other time. Then again, I'm not terribly bright. Just be aware. Also, the cord that comes with the knife is not actual paracord. I recommend cutting it off and replacing it with true 550 paracord out of the box, mainly because the fake stuff will fray and break pretty quickly after not too many cycles of pulling to close the knife. And - by the way - the cord is a required feature of the design of this knife: You pull the cord to disengage the bolt when closing the blade. You would be hating life if you had to attempt this without the cord. Take my word for it: Replace the cord with the real stuff. Finally, it has a thumb stud, but this is not realistically a one-handed opener. I suppose, if your will is strong enough, you could do it without opening a gash in your thumb. But, realistically, this is not a knife you're going to flick open with the thumb of one hand while clinging to a cliff-edge with the other. Do you care? I don't. When have I ever had to rely on opening a knife with one hand anyway? That would be never. This is a matter of convenience as far as I'm concerned, not survival. Heck, I can grip the spine of a blade with my teeth if I really need to. Don't let that stop you from purchasing this wonderful knife. Finally, I can't honestly speak to issues of corrosion and finish/wear, as I've acquired and used the knife well beyond my sleeping in the snow and hoping the knife works while feathering sticks and striking fires during raging blizzards days. But, based on all other evidence and observations, I'm confident that commonsense knife care practices and discipline will guarantee years of useful service. It's a really, really good knife. Buy two. They're cheap.
