Besides CPK knives, whaddaya like?

I'm really liking this Blackfeather Woodsman.
View attachment 704422
It was a gift from an awesome client of mine for all of the work I've done on her house and for watching her dog while she's on vacation.
It's O1 steel with barbwire micarta scales and orange liners.
 
Oooh! Standard's finally putting the Woodsman to use... I bet that Scandi grind working on that try stick is like a working a knife on room temperature butter!
 
I like Matt Diskin's work quite a lot. Such a versatile cutler. I picked up this flipper not long ago, after looking for one for quite awhile. Pretty cool knife!

That is cool looking, I like the low profile tab and how, when it is open it's hidden by the scales. For me the one thing that stops me from picking up a flipper is the large tabs.
 
This has been an indulgent week for me too. Ordered the Knife Work's exclusive Spyderco Military which was released this AM, which I should have in my hands on Friday. Received this Lil fella yesterday, being the only CRK I have ever bought brand new from Wilson Combat. Now that I have experienced a CRK minty fresh out of the box, I think in future I will pay the full whack retail when it comes to a nuanced, expensive (for me) and finicky knife like a CRK, instead of chasing a LNIB or whatever off of the Exchange. Not worth the hassle and the guesswork, TBT!

Now, it's only a matter of time before Jo contacts me for the 2 x CPK Camp-Type Knives I have on pre-order and all this spending before Mothers' Day :eek:

Nice choice!
That's the one CRK that I want!
 
Standard, I wholeheartedly recommend this Star-Tac version. Granted that the blade shape isn't for everyone, specially the CRK originalists and purists but it looks and feels like one tough hombre of a knife, plus did I say smoooth?! It certainly ain't dainty like the 21 but in the well established tradition of every single CRK I have ever had, with the exception of only 1, needs a few minutes of introductions to Mr. Sharpmaker and some paddling by Mr. Strop :D
 
Casinostocks Casinostocks very nice. I love my Starbenza 25 and would love to post a picture of it here but it keeps telling me my pictures are too large even when I take it with my phone only for this forum.
 
Bob, I believe that you got the name wrong! I really think it is Bling Blingen-Heimer :D
 
Thanks MoS89. I haven't tried posting a photo from my phone ever since the new format but I've learned to down size them from their raw format as taken by iPhone 7 when I transfer them to imgur so that the images do not become obnoxiously too large.

Try taking a screenshot of that photo, crop it and then see if that cropped photo will download. My iPhone had the same issue.

If I keep looking at and focusing on Bob's Bling Blinger's blade pattern for a minute or so, I'll end up in a trans!

No kidding!
That Damascus with what looks like camel bone goes together really well

The man has exquisite taste, that's for sure... The Bob Lum (was that the name?) he had posted a few pages back, the one which gave Lorien a rise was one darn sexy looking weapon!

In the meantime, let me go try to sell a kidney or two so that I can finance my addiction :D

P.S. saw you lightening up the load a bit recently on some folders and also GSOs.

They were all knives that sat in the safe looking pretty.
I think I'm going to go after one of the unnamed 6.5", an LC or a Behemoth.
