And My Ax...(is)!

I told you my next post would be shorter. Useless trivia of the day. The plural for “axis” is “axes.” This is also the plural for “ax.”

Edit: I didn’t sufficiently caption this originally, did I? From lower left, going up the arc rightwards:

Remember that $9 folder with 8CR13MOV steel? They now make a crossbar locking version (with what appears to be better scales) and it’s only $10.50 with coupon: www.amazon.com/…/B09T26HZGR

…You just want me to buy it and take it apart, don’t you? I wonder if the crossbar version takes two hands to open also.

Anyway, I see it has “smooth pull-lock structure.” For bottle opener, dismantle express, handwork & daily. Classic.

Well, you know, if a disassembly post showed up here, I certainly would not complain.

I should have scrolled down further on the product page. I just realized the Duratech line is made by our good comrades at HANGZHOU GREAT STAR INDUSTRIAL CO.LTD

Is it. Well, that may go a way towards explaining the construction details of some of the Ozark Trail knives. I’ll bet you they’re made of the same or similar steel, as well.

knife/knives therefore axis/axives 😆

SaintWacko,

I was so happy to see the axis lock showing up all over the place. I used to carry a Benchmade 943 because I loved how easy the axis lock was and the style was fine, but now I have a Kershaw Iridium with a style I love!
