  2. Damned Designs have caught my eye recently. I like their designs – a nice change from the D2/G10/drop point combo. A bit chunky but not too big. I haven't bought one yet so this review has been excellent just to get a vibe for the brand. Thanks heaps.

  3. I really like the atheistic of damned designs, doing some different bold designs. I’ve got the banshee and it’s one of my favorite knives. I’ve been eyeing the hades for awhile now. Thanks as always.

  4. I have a couple of these & I like them quite well. The first I bought was the Djinn and it is a great little front flipper. It actually kind of got me looking for front flippers, probably the 'easist' front flipper I own. Also have the Banshee which is a big chunky monster which has turned into a bit of a camp/food prep knife. Highly recommend.

  5. I love it when you said (regarding the blade tip), "If you don't want to be delicate, get a different knife."
    So many reviewers will criticize a knife for the knife's design features, as if their personal opinion is "gospel", whereas unless the area bring criticized is an actual defect, then just get another knife!
