I had to go and get another #ozarktrailknife from #walmart, before they sold out. That’s how good of a knife this is. It’s like a $50 knife, for $9. Its On bearings and smooth as butter. So if you Break it , loose it, or give it away , it’s no biggie cause it’s almost priceless. #bladesmith #steel #outdoor #outdoors #a #camping #chefknife #blacksmith #handmadeknives #messer #knifecollector #spyderco #knifesales #knifeaddict #damascus #custom #knifelover #sharp #edcknives #usnstagram #kitchenknife #foldingknife #knivesdaily #ak #sword #huntingknife #bushcraftknife #knifephotography
