Simplejack1985 Report post Posted November 3, 2023 Bought this off ebay this morning. While still on the search for the perfect swivel knife. Are they worth the hype? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sinbad395 Report post Posted November 3, 2023 I have no experience with that one...but I have to say the Dwayne Watts knife I recently purchased has been a game changer for me. I don't have to try and swivel the body to turn the blade around corners etc. The blade just follows and turns as I follow the design. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarshalWill Report post Posted November 4, 2023 Nothing beats a good swivel knife. A bad one makes tooling a chore and a good one makes it a pleasure. What brand is that one? My best are a couple of Hackbarths I got some years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are they worth the hype? If that is a Robert Beard Pro Series swivel knife then it most certainly will live up to the hype. I have used two of his for many years and I could not ask for better. His swivel knife blades are the best also, in my opinion. Edited November 4, 2023 by sheathmaker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
