Members Chavez Posted December 30, 2011 Members Report Posted December 30, 2011 Thank you, Art. How does SK-3 compare to Barry King's knife? Would I, as a beginner, feel the $100 difference between them? Or is it a better idea to try and save the money for other tools (i only have a quality round knife, skiver and a v-race so far. The rest is basic-necessities craftool stuff)? Quote
Moderator Art Posted December 30, 2011 Moderator Report Posted December 30, 2011 Honestly, I am such a Bob Beard knife fan that I doubt I could be objective. I have a Barry King knife but no SK-3 to compare to. I like the BK, but would trade another BB for it in a heartbeat. A Barry King knife and blade is way above what others who do darned good work are using. Mine is made of brass, which some folks just don't like. With swivel knives, it is all so darned personal, just dive in and get started. The Henley is an excellent knife at a reasonable price made by a couple of good ol' boys down in Louisiana. And they knurl them fine, medium, or coarse. Henley Manufacturing Co, Inc. (318) 631-3545 4229 Pro St, Shreveport, LA 71109 Art Thank you, Art. How does SK-3 compare to Barry King's knife?
