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.

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

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.

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.

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

I was really close to pulling the trigger on a Swamp Rat direct order...

Ratmandu black/black G10 handles... but I might just keep my Jackmandu with black G10. Yep, not cured. If you sell knives to minimize you hang out where you shouldn't hang out, hahah.

Did you get a box? This guy says the fake has a clip that says "Benchmade U.S.A." and the real one says "Benchmade", etc...

If you had a 940-1 and you can't tell, I guess it is pretty good right? Biggest giveaway is the price

That settles it; mine is fake 😞 And I actually overpaid for it too. It is pretty close but it's definitely fake, according to that video. I guess I don't have to worry about bringing it to work then.

But now I gotta get back on ebay and find the real thing again. Maybe.

So, after losing my Benchmade 940-1 at work, I went on Ebay to look for a deal. I found this for $80 because the seller thinks it's a fake. After I received it, I'm pretty sure it's real since it looks and feels real to me. Is there any way to tell for sure?

I thought about that. I'm pretty sure it's real so I think I'll live with it, for now. Not bad for $80!😎

Definitely worth rolling the dice on.

A second Tali-Whacker LE today...this one is just a bit worn, which is good, I'll use it and can satiate my hoarding instinct with the first one. A safe queen and a user for me please!

But seriously, someone stop me, I need to be done for a good while. Unless a Tan DS8 Comp falls into my lap somehow!

Busse used / users are awesome for that... Already has scratches or stripped or convexed so beat the hell out of it... redundant Busse’s become collectors or assets because the user lasts forever.

I’m no expert, I just got into them a few years ago and know what I like... typically ugly tough comfortable knives hahah.

Good thing is that you can always get at least what you put into them... probably should have sold my TGLB for 100-200 more. Hope the Forsaken Gemini Comp is cool.
