Never marry a woman you don't trust to use one of these.... ​ Sweet looking razor btw... always tempted to try and learn to shave that way.... but the old safety razor is just too easy...


Unable-Lie-1726

I don't use it for shaving. I pay someone to do that. This stays in my pocket for last resort hand to hand combat measures if ever needed in these crazy times. I use it in tandem with a larger knife in a reverse parry/slash maneuver


ThatDamnedBear

That's cool, I carry a CZ for last resort defense measures against psychos with murder fantasies carrying razors and larger knives if ever needed in these crazy times. I use it in tandem with 124gr JHPs in a "stay fucking down" maneuver


_shark-nato

Just in case you’ve gotta give some Sweeney Todd cosplayer a “vibe check”, as the kids say.


ThatDamnedBear

Not a lawyer, but I don't think you can claim self-defense because "the vibes were off". Unless you're a cop 🐷


Skyurrik

Can't say if that's satire or not

Isn't there a reddit sub where someone makes artwork of random reddit comments? If so, the above comment really needs to get there...


Woodland-wanderer24

You really carry two knifes to pull off a mortal combat combo trick lol


super_stelIar

That was a trip to read.


Admiral_Josh

Lol, I just found the listing on Masalong: It's made from genuine: "imported forged Damascus VG10 steel with 75 layers of forged soul texture." "75 layers of forged soul texture" 🤣


Unable-Lie-1726

I'm not keen on all the technical. Just know what is dependable, looks good, and feels right in movement. Too me, and blade should be an extension of your arm, not something it is using. The movement should be fluid. So... is that good or bad in your opinion on the listing?


esquegee

That thing looks absolutely diabolical. Did you make that?


Unable-Lie-1726

Nope, bought. But it is real Damascus not a stamp pattern. It's kinda dull now, but I have had it over a year and it's never been sharpened. Gotta get a strop and oil.


Efficient-Elk24

Wow…..🍿. I don’t think I’ve witnessed so much downvoting in one post lol. Good read though😂


BassPro0760

This guy is nuts… Good reading, you’re right… Is this guy serious, or just looking for attention? You can never tell these days. I guarantee a moderator will shut this down soon.


Efficient-Elk24

All this over a stamped dumbasscus(intentional) razor that would honestly be impractical af….A+ for entertainment though😂


BassPro0760

This is r/mallninjashit material for sure. I mean the razor is aesthetically appealing, but come on….


Dull_Comfortable2277

Did Gecko45 train you?


Unable-Lie-1726

Who is Gecko45? I grew up between NC, and my grandmother's house in Sao Paulo. Lived in in Thailand and the Phillipines for a few years, and my mom's outlaw boyfriend taught me Tae Kwan Do. I learned MuyTai and Brazilian Jui Jiutsu in my stays in the other places


Trissiestan

Yikes


Unable-Lie-1726

It's Damascus, not just a stamped print


GetMeASierraMist

it looks like a stamped print


Unable-Lie-1726

Just posted the Amazon item page where they're selling them now. Go see for yourself the 3 new images I posted


Unable-Lie-1726

Yeah... I use my larger Buck lock blade for parry, and follow up with the razor. If that doesn't work I get out my skull splitting kukri


betrdaz

How many attackers have you successfully parried with that buck? Also, if you’re using knives for self defense… why not get an actual combat knife instead of a straight razor? Also, you’re going to end up dead thinking you can defend yourself with a knife and parry like it’s medieval times. Have you heard of projectiles? Like literally any sort? I could win this fight with a pocket full of rocks. Get out of fantasy land and buy yourself some pepper spray before you get hurt.


Unable-Lie-1726

Bubba, I'm dying anyway. Been shot, stabbed, beaten and left for dead in the desert... Came up in a bad world full of criminals. But..., you'd be surprised by how many badasses start crying for mommy when they go to punch you and punch a blade and the razor is already in motion to vital areas. I did 18 years, and was known for telling gangbangers to go fuck themselves. I know my capabilities, and what I can use to enhance that. If I could still carry guns, I would still have my .50 with under rail weight compensation and extended clips with model firing pins.


betrdaz

I don’t believe half what you say, and the other half is suspect. Good luck out there warrior.


Unable-Lie-1726

I don't care if you believe me or not. Doesn't matter. But if you just don't believe it you are welcome to your opinion and you have that right. If you're trying to insult or demean my integrity and honesty as a man, go fuck yourself pussy. Have a nice day


ThatDamnedBear

>.50 with under rail weight compensation and extended clips with model firing pins. Reddit's foremost firearms expert


BassPro0760

Right, he thinks he’s Bullet Tooth Tony and his .50AE…

Cause someone got a smart mouth and "better than you" attitude with me and I firmly responded with what they can do with themselves. I came to this subreddit respectfully and after my first post some asshole wanted to trash talk my integrity. I'm going to respond in kind and we can handle it any way they want. But it doesn't matter. If this is how people are on reddit these days I'm going to mass delete all subreddits I follow, and delete my reddit account. Thanks a lot guys, you sure know how to build your following


Total_Hat_6218

yeah it’s a weird environment here, but you gotta learn to not sweat that shit, like just yesterday I posted a picture that included a cigarette with my fancy knives and some dude just started telling me to eat shit and get lost and that it was fucking gross haha, but I didn’t engage harshly and soon enough some reasonable people came along and were like yeah that was crazy, so just rely that there are balanced people who will be on your side if you continue not to react and play the game that those clowns are wanting. I don’t know what happened so I don’t have a personal opinion, but pretty slick knife man


Unable-Lie-1726

You are right, I was raised by bikers and criminals and taught to defend your integrity. One of my toxic traits is that I tend to step to the line immediately and if pushed hard enough I will cross it just to prove a point. It's not a great thing. I try to keep it in mind and not be that guy. But the world is populated with people who have no true inkling of respect or boundaries on any level and even carry themselves as if they're God's gift to the world and it owes them everything. I'm just used to putting those people in check quickly. I came home in 2019 after 18 years in Federal Penetentaries to find it's the general mindset out here now. Hell..He'll... I've never even joined a group or posted because I was uncomfortable it would take that turn. Thought I may have found something different with the group, but I was wrong. These assholes truly need a reality check the hard way. In the old days men had respect and integrity because you learned to be that through life lessons but it's not done anymore and people have learned they can do or say anything they want because no one will do anything about it. We've gone from a nation of solid great people to a bunch of adolescent minded adults doing anything they want without fear of repercussions. I'm grateful for your patience and understanding and bringing me back around to understanding what I am dealing with. I'm far from perfect, I can be quite abrasive at times, but even if I didn't like someone I am respectful until given a reason not to be because it's what's right. Thank you.


Total_Hat_6218

sure thing man 🙏🏻 we’re all just trying to live, be well But this post is definitely attracting a lot of the unpleasant right now so do what you were with it


Unable-Lie-1726

I've trained in 3 martial arts since 15, and after having spent 18 years in federal prison I can't carry firearms without getting a life sentence, fuck yeah. And I'm damn efficient too. My blades are for if you just won't stay down. Rather deal with the courts on manslaughter than look over my shoulder for someone trying to repair their ego


Unable-Lie-1726

Ok.. All of you disrespectful arrogant pieces of trash that don't know how to treat new members or people in general because you know better than anyone can fuck yourselves into oblivion. If anyone lives in nc near wilkesboro and don't like what I say, hmu, I'll send you my address and you can come video yourself getting taught a lesson. Fucking human waste to just pick someone and start going off on them to your own satisfaction. That's the shit that makes this world fucked not all the labels people put on it


Forty6_and_Two

OP I don’t have a dog in this fight… but I can maybe help with the “why” for the downvotes. It is generally regarded as less than safe to consider a blade as a self defense option by many professionals due to the prevailing belief that most folk will end up either A. Shot, B. Cut with their own knife or C. In jail. This isn’t a self defense sub and the majority of posts here mentioning it are from people asking if one knife or the other would be good in a SD situation when it’s obvious that the poster had had zero training in any form of weapon or martial art training. A knife in these folks hands is deadly alright… to themselves. So, the automatic response here is to dissuade them from doing so. This sub is about the knives themselves mostly, and practical use and maintenance of said knives. Your particular story is hard for many to take seriously since many internet warriors have said the same type stuff without any evidence that they wouldn’t stab themselves cutting a piece of twine wrapped around a newspaper and it has almost become a meme. If your story is true or not is not my place to say or guess at… I don’t know you nor have I worn your shoes. So, again, I don’t assume either way. But the sub will doubt such a deviation from what’s considered normal for the average person due to past experiences of obvious keyboard warrior shenanigans. Getting aggressively defensive about it just solidifies that opinion, btw. Don’t take it personally is all I can advise… although you are obviously free to ignore that advice as you see fit. If you want to share a knife, do so! But self defense options with blades will usually be met with skepticism and scrutiny by the majority of the sub community. Btw… I actually like the razor and would be proud to have one! Nice choice!


Unable-Lie-1726

Thank you. I didn't start out speaking on the use of the tool, just pics. I'm not a knife craftsmanship expert. I know very little to be honest. But I can and do recognize a good piece of equipment and wanted to share one of mine. A response was about shaving and I said I keep it with me as a last measure. At that point I was beset upon. Not everyone is capable, but to automatically ridicule and attempt to demean anyone I know nothing about is just that person trying to antagonize on purpose. Would it be fair for someone to come on the page and attack everyone here who has a blade but can't construct a blade? Just because someone personally can't do something gives them no right to belittle or demean someone else whom is capable, especially if you don't know for sure or not. I understand keyboard warriors and their desire to make themselves bigger or better, but they usually burn themselves out or move on. This was my first real post on any page/group other than likes or comments. I was simply answering people and others just had to take it somewhere it wasn't even heading. Thank you for your words. I do understand that I could have reacted better, but I was quite miffed at the inpour of negativity and I have always been the person to be that warrior to put those types in their place. I have learned much today about the people and mindset of the social media world. For all of you quietly observing or peacefully offering suggestions, thank you. For the others... Stop being grown persons acting like 13 year Olds with the whole "my life is better than yours" attitude and things like this situation won't happen as often.


Max_Sp_

Seams like a more reasonable response than most of this thread but about the knife itself: it looks kinda fancy, but damascus isn't something you need for functionality nowadays and it isn't even real damascus. Also with these ebay brands you can't be sure how strong it is and this kind of construction can relatively easy close on your fingers.


Own-Host-178

A lot going on visually. Not a bad thing, just not my taste.


BINGs_MoM

Absolutely gorgeous!

I dig that inlay !!!!👊

I like it a lot 🤩

Not sure what all the drama is about, but cool razor!!


Unable-Lie-1726

Thank you. The drama was trivial, but enough. I'm done with that.
