Walmart 2008 Winchester Tins

[Todd A]

Now I know I am a knife addict. I was out grabbing a couple small items in sporting goods today. Last minute shopping for when my son and I go out for an overniter with his Cub Scout troop tonight

Then I saw the tins, two to choose from one for $20 and one for $10. No Buck tins were out.

I grabbed the $10, just because that is $3.33 per knife, and I couldn't resist.:banghead:




Made in China,of course, some kinda stainless (not marked). The lockback and pen are gritty and some side to side blade play. The pen has good spring snap and the lockback actually locks in place. I'll give these to my kids.

The fixed blade seems to be decent.A 2 1/2 " blade with a 3 1/2" handle and full tang. A few passes on fine ceramic rods and it is taking hair off my arm. I think it will make a good tiny beater.

I am going to take it with me on our outing tonight. If it survives making hot dog sticks I might pick up a couple more tins just for this fixed blade.

Nice knifes. I like the dark wood. Walmart does have some great prices. Ammo prices are outrages. We were there yesterday and they didn't know what 20'06 ammo was?

If they got the heat treat correct the fixed blade should prove to be a good tool at a great price.

I'll let you know after I abuse......errr test it

I am off for a night of fun with the cubbies.

I've got two Winchester fixed blade knives.

This Model.

I really like them... they're perhaps the most ergonomic sheath knives I've ever had. Pretty durable, too, for cheapish knives.

I also had a Winchester folder for a while. I didn't care for it very much. It was too heavy, and I always had trouble using the belt clip because it didn't bend away from the knife far enough.
