Schrade Folding Knives




I'm still looking for a nice affordable folding knife for everyday carry but the folders from Benchmade or Spyderco are a little over my current budget for my first buy. So I came across this brand, Schrade , and it beautifully designed and also within my budget. I've also watched a few YouTube reviews on some of the Schrade knives and the users were quite happy with the quality and durability.

So I have narrowed down the selection to this 4. Next, I just need to see where I can get them in Malaysia.

I'll post something up once I get my hands on one of these babies.

Domino's Pizza Malaysia - A kick to Pizza Hut's face...

So apparently there's this whole fiasco about a PJ councillor , Anthony Thanasayan, who was denied entry to the Pizza Hut branch in Mid Valley. While the whole 'misunderstanding' is being settled, Domino's Pizza cleverly uploaded an ad to their facebook page saying that they "welcome people from all walks of life" ... a clear statement to hit Pizza Hut in the nuts... ahaha... i love these creative yet cheeky ads...

So I'll go eat at Domino's this weekend...  :)

2013 - A new hobby ... knives...

I told myself that for 2013, I need to get myself involved in a new hobby. Somehow knives caught my attention. So here's what I've got so far...

When I was in Hong Kong, I was looking around if they have any knives that I can bring it back to Malaysia, and I found the Victorinox multi-tools that I wanted ... and it's cheaper in HK compared to in Malaysia too. I bought 2 Victorinox. I've been carrying the smaller one around and used it a few times for everyday stuff... :)



As a birthday present to myself, I bought the Light My Fire knife and Heckler & Koch Instigator. I have not used both but planning on doing so when I go camping with some of the boys end of February.


First impressions on the Light My Fire - the grip on this knife is awesome... Just nice to hold and comfortable when striking the fire starter. The blade seems to be sharp and should not have any problems cutting meat or small branches.

 The other knife that I bought is the H&K Instigator. This knife is not really a camp knife but I do plan to bring it for outdoor trips. The sheath holds the knife pretty good.


There is one more knife that I'm looking at which is the Ka-Bar BK7 which will be my birthday present. oh yeah!!! ... now let's see how these babies will work out... 

and yeah... i will be looking at a few more other knives... maybe a Spyderco next... :)
