Greetings. I'm a newbie, joined the forum just today, though I've been watching the videos and perusing various topics for awhile now. I'd been watching this thread in particular.
I bought a used Bravo1 after watching Bluntruth4U's videos. I haven't used it much yet as the Cattaruagus 225Q I inherited is my current goto knife for hard use. The Bravo1 seems to have garnered a significant level of chatter mostly due to its dubiously-hyped background and the purveyor's questionable character... I generally ignore any hype/BS? around a knife, just check online for unbiased verifiable use-tests. Other than the evidently useless thumb-ramp, users seem to like it. But is it a use-equivalent purchase to an SAR5?
Sooo, since it's been a month since anyone posted to this thread, may I poke to see if Noss' situation has improved enough to where he might have the chance to put one through the paces... Any updates?
Thanks again for this service you provide, Noss, and your patience regarding the flack you get from others.
I would like to second another forumite's suggestion: can you throw the smaller (<12") hard-use knives at stuff - wood, tree, concrete wall, etc.? Or do you think that the tip & butt hammer-tests are fairly representative or encompass what effects such use might have?
Thanks again. Really looking forward to this D-test!
