Unique Duplex Grind - The Kwaiken Duplex has clear lines that are a result of a duplex grind, which is usually reserved for expensive custom knives. Boker Plus has finally offered this unique grind on a production knife and it's a real treat for the many fans of the Kwaiken series. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Justabulletaway: Needs more choils. They only used up half the blade with the two. LOL, I glossed right over that, WTF? I still don't understand Strider people. And I'll be very frank, when I see people in my other groups online posting knives that I like, as soon as I see them post a Strider (they usually come in at least pairs, always unused), I am done looking at that person's posts. I question their intelligence and they are lost to me. I don't even have a grudge against Strider like Benchmade or S30V, the knives and the company just make no sense to me. On any level. |

I’m not going to be using a 3.5 inch long Kwaiken blade to baton into antlers, bolts, or firewood? The blade shape dictates it is used for other purposes.
