Bedog Review

After a week of working in busy schedules, one Bedog finally resolved. This Bedog although worked with usual standard of workmanship but the purpose is enough to make me feel down... "Review" a word that is sometimes too scary to go through but what can make, finally it must be passed as well.
The blades are made ​​with the spirit of making a knife that is very standard, very simple, inexpensive and can be used in everyday life, without cosmetic finishing and so forth. Only for heat treatment it done for with a little bit repetitive.
