Some of the similar questions that are often asked in different words: Push or pull, forward or backward, away or towards when we sharpen a knife? In fact, there are better terms that describe the stroking motion while sharpening the knife: edge trailing or edge leading. Pulling the knife towards yourself while the cutting edge is facing your side (edge leading stroke) is not recommended because it is generally harder to handle and more dangerous. Decent quality for less than $50! A perfect everyday carry knife without breaking the bank and worrying about damaging an expensive alternative.As a beginner who starts to prepare meals in the kitchen, this is one of the most common questions to ask: To push or to pull when sharpening a knife?Īpply forces when pushing the knife away while the cutting edge is facing yourself (edge trailing stroke) is recommended. Overall this Boker Strike is a GREAT value. SAFETY SLIDE/LOCK: The safety slide/lock had unlocked and eventually caused the blade to fire all while still in my pocket. PAINT WEAR: After less than 2 weeks of carrying this knife, the pocket clip has had some paint chip off along with some noticeable wear to the aluminum handle. POCKET CLIP: Deep and strong pocket clip making it easy to remove and replace in your pocket along with keeping it very secure. I have yet to sharpen this knife so I cannot comment on ease of sharpening.
#SHARPEN KNIFE DROPPOINT UPGRADE#
MATERIAL: D2 blade steel making this quite the upgrade from AUS-8. You'll find yourself firing this blade often for no particular reason. BLADE ACTION: Very swift and responsive blade action. ERGONOMICS: Fits very well in hands making it very easy to handle. I've noticed a few quirks with this knife, but nothing to make you steer away from purchasing this.
#SHARPEN KNIFE DROPPOINT PLUS#
The Boker Plus Strike Drop Point in D2 is an overall great value the best "bang for your buck".
