I am sure the OP figured it out in the 11 years since the thread was started. I would bet you won't be able to tell the difference in use, especially in a suji, between blue 1 and blue super if geometry was the same and hardness was similar.

It sounds like you haven't used these knives or they just absolutely don't work for you, which is odd since most can adapt to many different knives. They are not bad the 8" is a bit goofy in the profile, but even that is not badly balanced and the handle is comfortable in pinch grip for many...

My feelings exactly. You are paying a lot for a polishing job, which I am sure is great, but not for a knife that will be used. Same for mirror polished honyaki. As art pieces, definitely, but that's a different paradigm and the price is truly what someone is willing to pay.

Hap-40 could probably handle "Pro" sharpeners better, but belt sander can overheat any steel. If you can find a sukenari hap-40 blade only that could be good. Or find one with simple handle and replace.

Beautiful!😍 Bore condition is excellent too. I am sorry I didn’t buy a few when I had the chance and especially the m/41 snipers and CG 63 300m competition rifles when they were available and reasonably priced. I still have a 1941 m/38 though.

If the geometry is the same and core steel is same as mono steel and heat treated the same you won’t be able to tell the difference especially in a petty.

The guy was jumped on right away and called a scammer. True enough he could do all you say and resolve the issue, but I could also understand being apprehensive after being called out without real reason as far as he is concerned. In all cases though if something doesn’t feel right for any...

No.

Would pressing on the end of the handle slowly with one finger be better than using full grip? Seems like it would be more difficult to cheat that way, but maybe not doable?

Maybe?

The argument works in the case of suppressors in the US for two reasons. First like you’ve correctly pointed out since most states allow them limiting them in some states is pointless as far as keeping them out of hands of criminals is concerned. Similar to other limitations on certain features...

Bump.

For hunting out of a blind with a bunch of people around you I can see a point, plus recoil reduction. On the other hand too many negatives in my opinion and not enough benefits.

Yes, absolutely, not straight forward at all and not popular for all the aforementioned reasons. I don't know if commercial ones even existed before the "No country for old men". Unfortunately, as much effect as the movie industry has on our lives and on the suppressor subject in particular...

Suppressing shotguns is tough due to the volume and caliber involved. They exist, but are large and heavy, you probably wouldn't want to use one in most cases since they mess with the balance and aiming.

Depends on the gun, suppressor and ammo used, but you can't make them movie quite with real ammo. A device does not make one a criminal, criminals don't follow laws by definition. So I fail to see how your concern and scenario is realistic, not picking on you specifically but your are displaying...

I think suppressors should be on everything when possible. Villainization of suppressors makes no sense at all.

Freaking Kali, I am here too, it is just a safety device, what the hell is their problem:angiefavorite:

That’s excellent, congrats on this beauty.

This looks amazing. Really digging this knife. Where is the balance on it and what are the specs?
