Whats your latest knife purchase?

[Klingon20]

Sanrenmu 7010 with Orange G10 scale.

[Klingon20]

I almost got one of those off Amazon, I hear good things about them.

[naeco81]

Yeah Kershaw/ZT are really good about sending you parts for free. They won't acknowledge your request by email in my experience, you just fill out the form and a few days later it arrives in the mail. I'm good with that though, no need for pleasantries

That is true. Parts always show up. Benchmade is just as good in that dept too. Both will back the knife you bought. Benchmade has more issues out of the box though, IMHO (comparing ZT to Benchmade). Chinese Kershaws have many minor but expected issues.

Cold Steel Recon Scout just arrived.

[crufflers]

Nice Cold Steel. I'll post my last 3V TANTOS since my PBucket albums got nuked. I just love taking pics of knives, heheh.

[naeco81]

^ nice
puzzle looks complicated

[vliberatore]

Got my new project to work on. Blade is made from a Calgunner. I'm hoping to get it done this weekend.

[naeco81]

Another ZT0456 for my collection. Photo credit to CGer SteveRogers who I got this from on our marketplace, and who you can clearly see is an excellent photographer:

NRS Pilot with orange handle.

[LowThudd]

Just bought a OKC3S Marine Multipurpose Bayonet. It is one heck of a nice knife, especially for a bayonet. Actually my favorite knife I own right now.

Pimps must post pics of their ho's knives!

Not sure if I posted the standard size Recon 1, but the standard size Talwar is new. Very convenient size for EDC defensive blade and a great look with those gnarly serrations. If there are protests and such in the forecast for the day I bring the Talwar XL with me. No need for serrations to dissuade attackers there

Sorry for the blurry pic, I'm impatient and can't wait for natural light

just picked up a zt 350 for $112 shipped on Amazon. my first more expensive flipper. I know it's a starter zt but I'm excited.

[MacDi]

My latest purchase in Barcelona.

I wasn't intending to buy anything like this while travelling, but I was lucky to meet a man from my building speaking great English and he showed me around, that's how I found this shop with knifes and riffles. Do recommend to rent a flat in Spain rather than a hotel room, cheaper and more private.

sold a hunting knife to a buddy so i replaced it one like this, ordered last month:

[crufflers]

I have a Jeff Haze Puukko that has a nice black stonewashed finish

Nice. I had a 301 for a while but got bored with it. (Not really, traded it for a case of .223)

Nice finish! And yes, the Talwar XL IS in fact Godzilla, particularly in green

[crufflers]

ALLROUND 5.8"











This ALLROUND 5.8" is CARBON... patina here I come.

[steelcore]

So um...... should have a package from Midway in a week. Crufflers, I'm gonna toss some blame over to you for the whole Godzilla thing. Soon I'll have a knife that's big and green, thanks to your imagery. No further clues, but real pics (not existing internet pics) in a few days. Something about taking a picture of a pocket knife larger than a standard envelope just....fits the definition of knife porn.

Sorry bout it. Good choice. They are fun. I also have the old 4" that was made out of whatever it was back then... AUS 8A? The XL opens better.

[crufflers]

Anyone check out the sharpened pry bars they have up on the Busse page now?

I do not have a B8.

[97F1504RAD]

Those B8’s are nice. I keep going back and forth on getting one but then I’m afraid they come out with something I like more it really suck as i usually miss out on buying something due to the way they do things.

Not seeing pry bars

[crufflers]

HOGB8 is .35" thick INFI... full flat grind. A lot of people call thick knives sharpened pry bars.

I shoulda jumped on the INFI ratweilers. As far as the B8's I'll let you know in a year or so

[ShredLA]

Im surprised there is not more reading material on the Spyderco Aqua Salt, everyhing ive come across seems to say all the same regurgitated info. i purchased a plain edge Aqua Salt over the weekend excited to see what its limitations are considering it being a softer steel compared to most.

Do want but the thickness pushes it way down on the list. No go for me.

[jonnyt16]

Just thought I'd check in, been a little while. Looks like I missed the B8's (not on Busse's website anymore) but .35"??? Damn. I'd have to say no thanks as well.

Did anyone happen to pick up one of those Busse/SYKCO DOG Soldiers that came out a few months ago? 6.25 inches of INFI that had a nice blade shape and a fuller. I thought that was a really handsome knife. Oh and Res-C handles as well. Would love to see photos if anyone snagged one.

Gratuitous pic: a recently acquired DDM4V7 SLW with an old favorite....SwampRat Ratmandu Prototype (longer blade, full flat grind)
