    Nice, looks clean. I like the Drever's blade style, but the Ontario could make it to the EDC pocket.


    Q

    I carry the model 2 in AUS-8. No complaints for the price. Easy 1 hand manual open, not spring assisted. The clip is painted and the paint does wear off. D2 is likely a better steel than AUS-8 though not stainless.

    I can't find where it's made, so I'm guessing it's Chinese. I can't see carrying a $70 Chinese knife branded to a company that doesn't make knives when there are other options.

    Yep. If your going with a cheaper Chinese made knife then a Kershaw is my choice. Some of those are good enough and cheap enough that you won't be out by much if you lose it.

    I have a few. Always assumed the were USA. One even has a USA flag stamped on the blade. I feel violated.


    I think most of them are still US made and the foreign made Kershaw knives are clearly marked as such, at least among the ones I have.

    They make the M7 bayonet, the USAF Survival Knife, the M1942 Machete, the Navy MK3 MOD 0 diving/survival knife, the M9 bayonet, and most recently, the USMC OKC-3S Bayonet. Ka-Bar makes Ka-Bar.

    Right you are. :thumbsup: Just checked my Ka-bar...
