[QUOTE="Omega, post: 5521146, member: 20060"] I began looking for another handle for the blades the Havalon Piranta uses to keep a spare handy for when the blade loses it's edge while field dressing. Not wishing to spend the same amount on one I took a chance on this one for $10.94. Yes, it's Chinese made, but I have to say, I like it. It's solid, and unlike the Havalon has some heft to it. It came with a different profile blade, like a 70A , which I prefer, but I don't think they are as sharp as the ones that come with the Havalon, but I bought it for the handle so that's ok, and I purchased 70A blades for the Piranta anyway. [URL='https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B09BDS1WYZ']Swiss+Tech Folding Skinning Knife with Liner Lock[/URL] While the body of the Piranta is plastic, this one is aluminum and textured to give it a little grip. [IMG width="314px"]https://i.imgur.com/STdF1n4.jpg[/IMG] The locking mechanism is identical, which works just about the same way of course. [IMG width="312px"]https://i.imgur.com/7CymIU8.jpg[/IMG] The belt clip is larger, but it doesn't get in the way or affect the grip IMO.
