      I have no problem justifying a high end kitchen knife … up to a point. As much as I love damascus, I don't see the point on a kitchen knife which will stain in a few days.

      Bladesmithing is hard on the body for sure.

        Actually, we noticed that the guys that did forging were having respiratory issues.

        I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

          Not surprising. I expect many also have back, shoulder, and/or wrist problems.

                      Hinderer Knives UK legal xm-18 'slippy' slicer. OD green.

                      Really wanted a Hinderer for ages but couldn't justify it previously as they did not do one that was legal to carry in the UK. Now they do!

                      Superb build quality. It is a bit stiff to open one handed using the thumb disc but Im too lazy to fuck around with it to adjust….

                      Love the fact that they do alternative scales, clips, tab fillers that you can buy in order to customise.

                      Heard some negative reviews about Hinderer but I'm pleased with it.

                            Very nice Mike! Why don't you give us some details? I don't know much about knives but would enjoy learning a bit.

                            The journey is the objective.

                              What do you guys suggest for a UK legal knife? I think it needs to be folding, non-locking and 3” max blade length. I see Spyderco come up a lot but I don’t know if they’re any good

                                    Check out Heinnie Haynes, they have a massive selection plus also advise which ones are UK legal by displaying an image on each picture. Their customer service is excellent. Have purchased at least six UK legal knives from them, amongst other things.

                                    Essentially though you are correct, need to be non-locking with blade length of less than 3 inches.

                                    My favourites are my Viper Dan2 (silver twill carbon finre scales), Hinderer slippy (pics a few posts back) and Heinnie x QTRMSTR. The Heinnie x Boker tech tool is a great little knife that is well priced.
