Molle Knifes

[albaprep]

Hi all, first time I've started a topic so hopefully all ok.

I just wondered if anyone had any experience of these Molle compatible knifes? Obviously this is not a 'go to knife' for any situation I can think of really but as a lightweight, easily found extra blade I wondered if it had any merit? Just a gimmick? I'm a believer that you can never really have too many knifes to choose from!

I found one here http://www.knifewarehouse.co.uk/product/tactical-molle-knife/

Thank you all in advance and for all the other invaluable information I find in the forum.

If this should have been posted in the blades section, I'm sorry and I'd be grateful if a mod moved it for me.

Done, and you get a +1 from me since it's my first officially moved thread as a mod

The Gear and Tool Review section is for user posted reviews of products. If you end up getting one of these knives and like it fell free to post a review over there!

  Most of these are soft metal and Plastic, hard to sharpen,don't hold an edge...mostly a gimmick of a knife the every ninja has to own.
It is a 1 inch long blade with very limited usefulness as you can't grip the 2 inch long handle to do many jobs. The GERBER EAB is a far better EDC knife and it is all good quality METAL and very easy to re-blade...

Just one grumpy old mans opinion.

Thanks for your input - I suspect you are probably right about it being gimmicky! I'm rapidly becoming a grumpy old man myself (my wife would probability say I already am), Carl!

If small,quality,sharp...are on your list...the SOG MICRON may be of use as it is quality and easy to conceal.I carry one IN my wallet and one in my hatband.

I used a small CRKT knife for several years. It had a sheath that I could put on my belt which was perfect. I kept it on my apendix and used it primarily for opening boxes.

They have different blade options available for it as well.

Both those look good. I primarily keep Swiss army knifes and leatherman tools as over here they are less likely to cause alarm. Obviously on the homestead (as I call it) we carry larger and better quality knifes for various purposes. It sounds as if I'd be better off sticking with proper knifes rather than bothering with a little gimmick like this!

As a knife maker (among other things) I'm offended by the very fact that some people might actually pay 7GBP for that

I have a Karambit Knife been using it for two years and is the best companion
