my dozier got some real use(pic heavy)

[leaf and lightning]

put my new dozier through the paces yesterday... after using it all week for everyday work oriented stuff and some kitchen duty(earning me scowls from my GF, but it worked well) I finally got to use it a bit out in the woods... basic stuff, like fuzz sticks

did ok, so I decided to whittle a stake with it

next I cut a 1/2" branch off a beach tree

that went so well I decided to step it up a notch... I used it to cut down an 1 1/2" thick maple sapling
bent the sapling over a bit and started cutting in at an angle

got about 3/4 the way through

then one cut from the other side and

tada

so far, I have not needed to even touch up the edge on a strop... it has held a shaving sharp edge through everything I have done with it and probably will keep holding it a while longer...

all in all I like this knife so far, and plan on carrying it for a long time...

Love my Dozier. Sweet blade. That hollow grind comes razor sharp. I haven't had to sharpen mine. Still razor sharp:

I have 4 of those. Not only is it a great folder , I think it's the best folder for the money ever. :dblthumb:

I sure have been enjoying mine! I havent done anything with it other than standard EDC stuff. But love it... Nice and light and very affordable!

Yeah, that's just it. Price to quality ratio is outstanding. $18, for cryin' out loud.

The other day I was comparing mine to my other fav EDC, my Spyderco Delica. Yes, I think the Delica is the superior knife... but is it 3 times better at 3 times the cost?

Hmmmm....

Those are great looking knives.

Got mine in a trade and it's my favorite out of all my knife trades and I've done a bunch.

inspired me to use my Dozier today

Is that the large or the small model?

Is that the large or the small model?

the standard...I believe there is a smaller and a larger model than this one... this one has the 3" blade...

Funny, I can only find them in 2.5 and 2.9 (3 is close enough). I'm looking for a good little folder and can't decide on the size.

Always trusted Ka bar.

Thanks.

I have that exact same knife, and I like it too.
Nice pics!
