I'm looking for an ASH-1
What Busse were you looking for?
Someone from the forum has offered the ugly betty 4.1 in D3v for trade and I'm not sure this is a good trade. Any of you have feedback on this knife and trade offer?
Frank, I'm not trying to step on your toes here but it is extremely difficult to separate company from product for several knife related reasons in this question from the op.Company aside, from the posts I have read, the knives themselves are solid. Mind you that comes from reading a LOT of posts, rather than from personally handling them.
The answers need to be about the question, not what you want the question to be.
Is the knife reasonably well made or is it junk?
The poster is not "supporting Survive" by buying a used knife. So belay all the responses about what a scumbag company the outfit is.
If the OP cares about a warranty, it would be my advice to not even look at survive. They are proven to be untrustworthy and also financially troubled. They likely will not be around for the life of the knife.I have seen customers show off their warranted knives, so that isn't an issue either.
Not sure what D3v is but my Ivan Campos-made American Standard Tanto in D3 -- 1/4" thick awesome chisel grind -- is an unbelievably tough steel. Chopped through a 2x4 and it would still shave. I keep it handy in case I ever need to cut/chop/pry into a vault (and then shave).
