Moorlander Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 From the Perkin website "We are custom knives makers based in UK.

Moorlander Posted September 11, 2018 Report Share Posted September 11, 2018 You`ll have to try harder if you are going bluff people on the net... You've really made a fool of yourself ,if you`d come onto the site and been honest about your motives and told the truth about your products I`m sure you would have received a warm reception .

That is the very last shape and size of knife (Looks big) that I'd choose for deerstalking. I would also not use a nice smooth (slippery when wet) wooden (unhygenic?) handle. Where do we start? Blade shape is wrong...blade is too long imho for skinning duties and that deep belly may be handy for cutting up hefty lumps of meat but you woudn't insert that into an animal as a draw to part the skin without slicing up half the insides...perhaps it would be better on heffalumps? Blade thickness way too thick and heavy for my liking. I use Moras, have a Hella Harding and a custom blade similar to the Mora but in much better steel that holds an edge far longer. Also, there is no mention of the steel used for that knife, what the hardening and tempering process is (many Chrome Vanadium steels these days use very specialist heat treatment). If you're attempting to sell a knife, where is the information on the knife? Size? Steel? sharpening angle(s)? Tempering process? Handle material? Handle fitment? Price? You'll need to try a little harder my friend...after all you're posting on a site with more than its fair share of seasoned hunters who know a thing or two when it comes to knife selection and use. Also, can you state categorically, for the record, that despite what your company info states, that knife shown is made here from start to finish in the UK? Little point in posting further really until these things have been addressed without drawing less than favourable comments. We're a fair minded bunch as long as no-one is trying to pull the wool over our eyes and respect is given where respect is due. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use of a knife is different for different person.If someone want a for hunting, he will never buy or even think to buy a kitchen knives, so the store Perkin Knives also provide the facility to design a knife as we want. That is the only reason for being my faviourite store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
