WE Knife Banter green G10 first Ben Peterson Design Made by WE Knife S35VN Blade Whaaat iiiiiiis up guys? If you are interested in knives, you can't avoid him: for a long time, Ben Peterson from Blade HQ was a real institution on Youtube. His videos were not just product presentations, but had a completely unique and entertaining style. After his end at Blade HQ, it was a short while style around Ben. However, he was not idle. Together with WE Knife, he developed a pocket knife that is absolutely tailored to Ben's needs and comes with a few clever features. Here comes the Banter. First, there's the size: perhaps you remember Ben's requirement that a knife be no longer than his outstretched index finger? To test this, Ben likes to put his finger out the back of the blade and see if he can reach the tip. Thanks to its unexciting, universal contour, the handle made of green G10 is very comfortable in the hand and can be used in a variety of positions. In the back, you'll find a lanyard hole through which you can thread a 550 paracord as a safety strap, for example. While the showside is made of a pure g10 scale, the opposite scale has a liner made of black steel, which also provides the super secure linerlock. The blade is a very universally shaped Spearpoint blade (comes with a blackwash finish in this version) that has been given a large hollow grind. The genius here is that WE Knife have chosen such a thin grind that the Banter is an incredible cutting machine. The S35VN blade just flies through the cut material and is up to all cutting tasks in EDC. Ceramic ball bearings provide a smooth opening of the blade, giving the Banter a certain playfulness. Together with the black deep-carry clip, which allows the knife to disappear discreetly in your pocket, you get with the WE Knife Banter an impressively versatile EDC pocket knife that turns out to be an excellent companion in everyday life.
