    Just found this while looking for something else.

    Timber Rattler Jungle Fury Bowie - BUDK

    Can hardly go wrong with $10 for a stainless steel knife, but I cannot find anything about shipping charges on the web site.

    Any one have experience with BudK? Any one have experience with this blade?

    Also found these offered at almost ridiculous prices. Comments?

    Bud K is an emporium of Chi-Com turdish knives and mall ninja gear:mallninja:.
    I'd say any of the 3 knives posted would be fine to hang on the wall, collect dust in a drawer, or keep a kid entertained for the afternoon in the woods, but I really wouldn't suggest working any of them too hard.

    You tend to get what you pay for, until you step into the realm of customs. I'd suggest at least saving up $40 for a Buck 119 / fixed, or a 112 if your looking for a folder. A little more will buy you a Becker, and a little more will get you into an ESEE.

    Personally I love BudK knives.

    I have used a

    Timber Rattler Sinful Spiked Bowie Knife - BUDK

    A17-TR83.jpg


    For everything from batoning, choping thru a decomissioned police cruiser, and general woodcraft.

    I agree it is a " 15 inch extension of bad attitude" and its 30VMH14 steel is unique to the manufacturer. And far far FAR better than anything this universe has comeup with to date.

    I carry my "TRSS" IWB, and would put it up against the best that ESEE or Busse can bring to the table.






    Disclaimer: None of this post is true, I dont own a Budk knife, I have never batoned anything in my life, but neither have MOST of the knife owners on the internet. No matter how much their blade costs. Or who made it.

    And yes, Budk knives are total, and complete, crap.

    They sell mostly United and Frost knives. Their prices on others knives aren't that good. United and Frost are about the bottom of the barrel for quality. Like Charlie2 said, if all you want is something to hang on the wall, go for it.
