SVO135: Peasant Knife

Svord

 

Not just any old knife, but the B.W. Baker Peasant Knife. Such an old concept that it's new; so new that it's old. B.W. Baker, Master Cutler, felt that the idea of creating his latest knife range was calling to him from the past. Using old fashioned methods and relying on the oldest low-tech methods, Svord proudly present their Peasant Knife. What does it do? Well, it cuts. Sure, there are knives around today that sprout scissors, sawblades, an entire motor mechanic's tool kit, laser beams and micro cell phones. Such knives have lost the very reason for their existence - that's high-tech for you. If you want a knife, a knife to cut things with, the Svord Peasant Knife is for you.

If you've got style, you've got the class to be a first-rate peasant. Peasants are proud. Who actually did anything in history? Royalty? Nobility? Leaders? No way. We peasants carried the can for centuries. We also carried Peasant Knives too. The B.W. Baker Peasant Knife, from the days when peasants had pockets, but no money to fill them. Just the knife. The B.W. Baker Peasant Knife is based on models used in Bohemia and Bavaria 3 - 400 years ago. It's easy to use, easy to carry and to open. But it's awfully hard to put down. You can open it one-handed. Hang it from your belt or whisk from your pocket by its handy tang. Beautifully simple, but crafted by Svord from the finest steel, hardened and tempered to a secret formula. All peasants know value when they see it. Beware of imitations!

Peasant Knife fun. Tap it open - snap it shut- click it, flick it. Whittle the hours away. Pare your nails. Sharpen your writing stick. Free hostages.... Every hovel should have one (or more!) Remember: "Peasants rule, and your knife's your tool". The ultimate exclusive possession - your B.W. Baker Peasant Knife. Older than yesterday, but fascinatingly later than tomorrow. Svord, by appointment to peasants of the world, from executives to errand boys.

What Do You Expect
One shouldn’t review something compared to something else. If I compared this knife to something with ball bearings, assisted opening, and triad locks, yeah it gets a 1. However, if you pay 20-ish bucks for a friction folder, this gets a 5. I’m serious I was expecting a lot less. The thing came “be careful” sharp (especially if you’re not used to friction folders). Fit and finish is tight, and (subjectivity alert) it fits great in my large size glove hand.

Good for the Money
I didn't give it a five because I haven't used it yet. Though I did manage to put a hole in my palm by opening it incorrectly. Those that say this knife is cheap are stating the obvious: it is cheap, but as far as cheap knives go this is gold, right up there with morakniv in terms of how crazy sharp this is out of the box. Handle only feels light because it is Zytel, and those that say it is weak don't understand how strong of a polymer it is. It's meant to be light, and it is. Might feel "cheap" to those that think weight = quality. it does not. Can't wait to see just how well this high carbon model retains it's edge. Will make good use of this purchase.
