I started this thread on /k/ and probably should have done it here. I'll also reword it: Has anyone had enough success and comfort with the tom brown tracker enough to justify it's price? The price seems needlessly steep.

Isn't that the knife from that tommy Lee jones movie? I think I remember a clone of it.

Looks like a heavy, unbalanced, gimmicky piece of shit.

>unbalanced
No shit, it's obviously a weight forward design. Machetes are unbalanced too and they're very useful.

That said, this knife is fucking expensive as fuck for what little you get functionally. No experience as to the overall quality, maybe it's just made to last to hell and back but I've seen cheaper knives that can do that as well.

I've handled one and it has a weird balance to it. For the price, you can get a better balanced ESEE blade. You could also just get yourself a small hatchet from an estate sale and use the rest of the money to get yourself some other useful gear.

It's a one trick pony. It's big and choppy.

For the same money you can get bigger and choppier.

If it's what you like though you should just get it, it works well a knife of its size.

Actually since this blade and other general outdoors/bushcraft are actually used while backpacking and camping it applies to /out/ as well. If this were me asking about a combat knife that would be different.

Never used one myself, from what I have heard from all the knife fags who have....They said along the lines that the knife sucks, if you actually know how to use it, it is a really amazing knife.....Seeing as I don't the saw, a big up sweep belly blade, how that lil sunken part of the blade would fuck with my wood working, I myself would pass on it.
