Montana Knife Company Stubhorn

I have a few of their knives. Couple for the kitchen and one for hunting. I just looked at mine. I do not have those finish issues. Guess my knives are lacking fingerprints. Their answer was a poor excuse. You deserve a better response.

Look at some of their manufacturing processes and hardness testing on YT. MKC is not doing a great job at anything but social media marketing.
That said, neither are most companies, especially when it comes to maximizing the performance of steels as knife blades. Most companies are running their blades rather soft, either to minimize warranty work or because they don't do any testing to optimize performance.

I guess I take for granted the luxury of walking out to the shop to make a new knife when I want one… and the only person I can blame is myself if it doesn’t turn out right! LOL

I can do the same... but likely could buy quite a few customs for what I have invested in knife making tools.
But it is nice if you see sometime you want to try out.

My speed goat struck me as rough. I love my sharptailed, it does have those spine marks but outside of that finish looks great to me.

Totally get why you would not be happy though.

Wow. That spine looks similar to my $10 Mora.
For half the price you can get a custom Buck 113 with decent steel and a nice finish.
