Jeff Randall เจ้าของ ESEE knives
อ่านเพลินๆครับ
What makes a $200 knife different from a $20 one? We asked Jungle survival trainer and knife designer Jeff Randall.
Jeff runs Randall's Adventure and Training, where he teaches survival in one of the harshest environments on earth — the Amazon Rainforest. Along with co-founder Mike Perrin, he also runs ESEE Knives, producing no-bullshit tools intended for hard use. We asked him to explain how new knives come to be.
IW: What trends are currently influencing the knife market?
JR: In all honesty, the knife industry is about 99 percent bullshit.
We sell knives every day to people who will never use them. Knife buying is more of a want than a need.
I grew up on a farm carrying a three-bladed "Old timer" pocketknife. It did everything I needed and got used daily. All these new weird shapes and designs that keep coming out are made just to have something new and "tacticool." Most companies refuse to speak the truth and just say, "the reason we designed this is because some mall ninja would think it's cool and spend money on it."
