Review Manly Folders: Comrade, Peak, Wasp. Fixed Blades: Patriot and Drugar, Made in Bulgaria

[Nemo]

I got a S90V Camo Comrade coming. It has arrived in France yesterday now I need to see my postman.

 

[Gary W. Graley]

My Peak is measuring about .018” at the shoulder of the edge bevel, I’m guessing that your Peak has a bit thinner edge?

I have remove the shoulder as shown in the review making it really thin.

Enlisted the help of my son in law for this shot of my Manly Peak folder, ready to do some hard work

Is the action and stiffness of the Comrade equal to the Douk Douk?

 

[Gary W. Graley]

I have not handled that folder so I can’t comment on it.

Just a quick word of whats in the works from Manly.
Back in Sofia our guys are working on a small version of slip-joint Comrade. The blade size will be reduced to 2.8" and overall length should be around 6.5"
The blade will be CPM S90V harden to 60-61HRC, and the price tag will be very attractive. Below are some shots from the prototype, as well as side by side ones with current Comrade and Peak

Cheers,

Nice Lubo I’ll bet that size will be a hit too

The nail nick looks to be deeper than the first Comrade folder?

This will be very attractive to UK users, I will certainly pick one up. The Comrade is a great knife, I dare say this one will be of similarly high quality.

Gary, I am pretty sure that the notch is the same. Hopefully soon we will have some of the first articles in our hands to compare.

The Drugar looks like a must have. Can you provide any further info on it?
I am very impressed with my orange Comrade & Patriot.

 

[AmosPaul]

Really liking the size of the Drugar; hope to see it for sale soon.

 

[Lyubomir Trayanov]

The Drugar on the picture will be available soon in Germany and Europe trough Messer & Co https://messerundco.de/
Drugar (bulgarian for Comrade) was specially designed for Messer by request of Dirk Wanger. However we hope that a slightly modified version will be available here as well
There is one more picture with different scales
