>>970878>BG knives are crapVery true, but it really isn't just the metal. It is how they are designed that makes them really bad. Take this one. See the rivet near the top of the handle? That is where the blade snaps. That's the area of the largest amount of stress and it happens to be the area that has the least amount of metal. When they break it will break on either side of the rivet. Why? Because this type of knife is intended to be used like a machete.
