Members rccolt45 Posted February 17, 2010 Members Report Posted February 17, 2010 Hey guys, Can anyone help me by recomending a head knife that cost less then say $50.00 but is not a POS? Seems like the price runs any where from $30.00 to $200.00. This is just a hoppy of mine and I can't break the bank. Quote
JohnD Posted February 17, 2010 Report Posted February 17, 2010 Check Ebay. I bought the Al Stolman brand from Tandy for about $35, I think, but I wouldn't recommend it. It doesn't hold an edge very well at all, I seem to spend as much time sharpening it as cutting with it. John Quote

I got one several months ago and all it needs is a stropping every so often. I love mine. Dan Quote
JohnD Posted February 17, 2010 Report Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Maybe so. I guess I meant stropping, not sharpening. But still, I strop it before use and then if I cut about 18" of 6/7 oz, It starts having trouble and needs to be stropped again. I use a poly cutting board, if that makes a difference. Sorry about the hijack. John Edited February 17, 2010 by JohnD Quote
