Besides CQC-7s...I have a couple of Commanders, LaGriffe neck knife, Karambit, CQC-8, Raven, and a SpecWar-A.

The only one I have is the right handed Commander (with wave). I would still like to get the left handed version in the future.

Sadly, I've only owned one. The BM 970SBK. Which is basically the CQC-7. I see you have the same model, J.T. :D

Though during the time that I had it I did a few small tests.

Really, really heavy spine whack tests. A few cutting tests. Light lateral pressure test.

I have to say, the BM Emersons are no joke, good quality folders at a good price. Lock up is solid even with the thin liner lock. Edge retention was also good (did a little batoning as well). Though, lateral strength wasn't that great. The torx screws that BM use don't really do well for holding the knife under side stress.

Though, I'd really like to test out the CQC-7 and HD-7. I'm not sure that the HD-7 thick frame lock is all that necessary. I'd see if they both can take a stand on lock test and stand on lateral test. I'm sure the actual Emersons will have better lateral strength than the BMs since I recall they use a larger pivot screw.

Nice!!

Emerson should do a tanto version.... then again I guess that would be the raven series.

Yeah but, there's a saying I'm fond of..."there's no price for security."

Let me take this oppurtunity to welcome you to our group. You've already dive in so no need to push...lol! I've put up a lot of cool stuff already...even Emerson's 2009 catalog.

I'll try to put up new content at least once a week and already have feelers out to Emerson Knives Inc.

Just the Horseman so far, but it is by far the best knife I've ever owned.

Can't go wrong with that...I got the bigger CQC-8 and a bunch of other Emersons (see video and comment above). And I just got a Emerson UTCOM CQC-11 last Thursday video above too.
