    No wonder they are so bloody expensive now.
    This one, a knock off, I got 20 odd years ago for $7.99. I think the real thing had gone up to about $25 by then and I wasn't going to spend that much.

    Seen the Mercators at HF on the weekend for 50 bucks so that's not so bad. I heard from the old bushman neighbour when I was growing up, of the lock back failing when they are past their use by date. Never used mine enough to say
    While I was there I almost threw up in my mouth when I heard the young salesman trying to sell one to an older dude one. He was right in everything he said about the knife and how good it was but kept calling it a muracator. Made it sound like some form of dinosaur.

    BAHCO KNIFE

    After hearing such good things about these knives I decided to get one myself - turned up razor sharp so I'm pretty happy for a cheap knife Ordered from Trade Tools LTD online (because I couldn't find any in any hardware stores) on the Thursday morning and it arrived Thursday afternoon, same day service is pretty impressive. Going to use it mainly as my dive knife while spearfishing but it will certainly make an appearance in my hunting pack.

    Bahco knives deserve their own standalone thread, .....preferably hidden somewhere in the darkest recess of the forums bilge.
    Just a slopy retrobate

    They are not actually made by Bahco, they are made by Mora and or Hultafors and rebranded.
