Scored a new to me Tom Mayo custom real TNT on the secondary market. Tom makes knives that are the TNT design Titanium frame locks, but this one has a Talonite blade, so Titanium & Talonite

Candiru. I haven't posted Candiru pics so I'll include some here, as well as one or two of the Izula after cleaning.

I am liking that Candiru. I am starting to appreciate the smaller fixed blades. I might keep my Mean Street Ergo BG... have kydex incoming for that one. My 311 is long gone though.

Promate Barracuda Sharp Tip Titanium Diving Knife (5“)

Gone a little knife buying binge recently. Just cheap but functional knives that vary in size/purpose to round out my collection.

Some nice ones. I didn't like the Lifter though. Not a fan of that whole series from Kershaw. QC is sporadic though. You might have got a good one.

Those CRKT's remind me of the Colt Cobra's (United) I carried forever.

I got my kydex for the Busse Mean Street Ergo G-10... great fit

Who’s kydex?

I tried a new place because he listed the exact knife I have without sending it in. Most Kydex benders do not keep these models forever. Prices reasonable, pics looked great, nice thumb breaks, etc... fit and finish is great. That is a small sheath, but only $25 shipped and took a couple weeks.

Yeah he has a made to order section and a ready to ship section... his site is kind hard to navigate all choices.

I have a Forsaken Gemini Comp finish incoming that has been pending shipment forever - payment taken a while back. I guess a 6 month turn is not bad if it gets here this month. I've had these take twice as long. I hope the logo etch is as clean as the pics. I love a clean etch on a bare blade. Some like the HOGB8 I had are not visible and might as well be sterile. When you strip them you can etch as deep as you want before the stripper.



I have a leather TG sheath I will try on the Forsaken or maybe a SPEC-OPS or AZW, Brown order. Welke hasn't been getting every single new Busse release. Understandable with all the models that pop up. His stuff is right up there with anyone.

[97F1504RAD]

Yep, I’ve got a Forsaken Gemini coming as well coated w/red& black G10 then the follow up to that is a nuclear Urgent Fury w/green&black G10.

I had to look that one up, hahah. Nice blade shape. Some of the recent stuff looks like it is for fighting dragon's or Orks, hahah. That looks nice. Their mulit-color G10 is really nice. My Forsaken is the green micarta.

The 1302 Lifter only cost $19.95 so no big deal if QC isn't great on it.

Just wanted another tanto blade and the blackwash finish was similar to a Kershaw 1300 clip point that I recently purchased at the Reno Gun Show, which I later discovered was part of a 2 knife package that I could have purchased for the same price but I didn't like the 2nd knife in the package anyway. Much prefer the pairing of the 1300 w/the 1302 instead. The QC on the 1300 BTW is just fine. Will have to wait and see on the 1302.
