I'll say one thing about Mantis designs: they have the highest hole-to-knife ratio in the known universe. I can't believe this thing cost $33.

Apparently my other deal post was also for a Sencut. I didn't realize until I went looking after making this post.
Lest anyone think I am just shilling for them, it's a coincidence. I tend to buy mostly budget knives (or knives on really good sales) so I'm more likely to encounter these deals in my day-to-day.

I'm beginning to worry about you @dual_sport_dork. Each Wednesday the knife you present is more and more (if you'll pardon the pun) unhinged than the last.
Horrified? Nah. It's a hell of a lot better than I could ever do! Did the tang already have holes drilled?
I really need to get a khukuri. I have 1 custom fixed blade in 3V that I use for a lot of wood processing. Otherwise a couple Mora's are always around for a variety of tasks.
Just this week I lost my Olight i3T! I'm really bummed. I had the brown/brass colored one and it was starting to wear in a very satisfying way. I know it was only $20 but I use low self-discharge NiHM batteries in my flashlights so that's gone too.
I like you're setup and it's cool you stitched the wallet yourself!
That's so great. Having a knife with family history is really a treasure. It's something that you know was used to learn and explore and you can pass that down to others too. Each mark or rust spot or worn piece tells a part of that story.
My gods, you make Wednesdays the best days. This is amazing in so many terrible ways.

There are so many "good" ones to choose from though! From "very impractical" to "wildly impractical" to "no, seriously, you are trying to sell this?"
