Review of the WE Knife Inmate: A Standout Piece with Impressive Durability and Design
In the ever-evolving world of knife design, a new contender has emerged, making waves in the industry and capturing the attention of collectors and users alike. The WE Knife Inmate, a creation by the knowledgeable and impressive Jerad Neeve, has quickly become a popular choice for those seeking a reliable investment knife.
The WE Knife Inmate stands out for its remarkable balance of size and weight, making it an ideal choice for both everyday carry (EDC) and camping. Despite its substantial size, the Inmate weighs a mere 4.2 ounces, allowing for top-notch slicing and chopping capabilities that belie its light weight.
The Inmate boasts a spear point blade shape, paired with a hollow grind, and is made of black stonewashed CPM 20CV steel. This combination results in a durable and corrosion-resistant blade, capable of handling hard use. The 8.4-inch overall length and 3.7-inch blade provide ample surface area for various tasks, while the 2.5-inch flat edge ensures precision in your cuts.
The Inmate's design also includes an exposed lock tab, an ample thumb hole, and both a front flipper and a thumb hole for easy opening. However, some may find the front flipper to be a design drawback, with the enlarged thumb hole serving as a satisfactory alternative for a smoother opening experience.
The Inmate's versatility is evident in its ability to handle a variety of tasks, from everyday chores to outdoor adventures. It was first noticed by the author through a YouTube episode of Knafs@Nite, further cementing its reputation as a knife worth considering.
Priced at $350, the WE Knife Inmate is a valuable investment for those seeking a high-quality, durable, and versatile knife. While information on its initial sale in other countries is not readily available, its popularity on social media, particularly with new knife designer Jerad Neeve, suggests that it has made a significant impact in the knife community.
