5 Great Folding Knife Pairings – The Knife Junkie Podcast Episode 205
On the mid-week supplemental episode of The Knife Junkie podcast (episode 205), Bob “The Knife Junkie” DeMarco looks at five great folding knife pairings — along with a runner-up pairing — as well as his pocket check knives, the Cold Steel 4Max Scout and the CRKT Piet.
In the state of the collection, Bob looks at his Emerson Tiger and the Pro-Tech / Strider SNG with Gcarta handle, and taking a look “from the vault,” it’s the SOG Stingray, purchased in the summer of ’91 in Boston. And in Knife Life News, Kansept’s full 2021 lineup is unveiled, Morgan Koens’s new Bestech folder, and Bear & Son/BearOps release a Cali-legal auto.
