![]() ![]() I think most people who have expressed opinions (which you certainly have the right to do) about Medfords have never handled one, much less used one. They are NOT a replacement to my best cutting folders (I like Spyderco and especially Military and PM2 in that role), but my chore EDC folders include both a mili and the 187 DPT. They are made by Medford for Strider so they feature some of the best from both makers. Fit and finish and material on the Medfords are excellent (I know there are sexier steels than D2, but plenty of high end makers use D2) and for the money they are NOT out of line with other mid-techs and mostly not in the same layer of the stratosphere as most customs. My actual experience with Medford (I currently own 3) is - I bought them because I have been exploring the world of fixed blade folders (basically if I can't carry a fixed blade but want something as robust as I can get in a folder - don't derail the discussion on this digression btw), I have considered a lot of options, I included Medford in my search based on the pitch about hard use, I currently own 3 (Prae-G, 187DPT, Arktika) and find them to be very good cutting tools in a design that comes closer than anything else I have used to that "folding fixed blade" pursuit (especially the Arktika).
