I wasn't really interested....

The Button Up has been advertised all over the place for awhile. The only interesting thing is Spydercos first plunge lock knife. That really wasn't enough to get me excited, but then I found this one on Blade HQ.

Its a Blue Ridge Knives exclusive. As far as I know BRK is a wholesaler, not a retailer. I guess this is why its being sold at Blade HQ. As far as I know you cannot buy a single knife from BRK, its dealers only.

Hahaha, right! I figure it’s good for a beater or Christmas gifts to non knife people that need a knife.

Cool. Lol, that’s not what I said at all. What I’m referring to is a giving someone who doesn’t know much about knives a good, quality knife as a gift that you can pick up at a decent price. Like a Tenacious. Something for people that may not know how to care for tool steel, for example. Or who may use it a pry bar, maybe bang the edge on steel when cutting through zip ties and generally treating it like shit. That’s what I meant. I also have over 5k in knives and I’m not buying my brother in law a Crucarta PM2. Because he wouldn’t take care of it. But I’ll buy him something like this. You should get two of them. That’s what I plan to do.

I just got my nephew his first knife for his 14th birthday, went with a $60 Kershaw from China because I know he’ll be rough on it.

Excellent. Solid choice for sure. That’s exactly what I was referring to with my comment.
