I want one so bad.....

the teddy bear.....what did you think I was talking about? :p

I do want a Waimea very much badly.
 
Pull the trigger my brother! You will not be diapointed. It reminds me of my, missed muchly, Umfaan. It is a bit bigger which is nice.

P. S. It's a Monkey. :O)
 
Great pics, I absolutely love my Waimea. I've been into high-quality production knives since the late sixties and the Waimea is one of my all-time favorites.
 
The Waimea is possibly the best value in a titanium frame lock with an S-30V blade you can get today.
 
That does it,I've been thinking about that little Beauty for a long time!This thread might just push me over the edge!!Superb looking knife,congrats!
 
Somewhere in the USPS Priority Mail system... west of here... there is a package - with a new TNT - headed here. I anxiously await it - my Christmas. It'll join some nice other Ti framelocks - with SG-2, M4, and S30V blades:

Oddly, I've wanted the TNT for longer than I've known about the ones I already have. I finally saw one - fondled it last summer. I predict it will be worth the wait.

Stainz

Update: It's at the Birmingham sort facility - I'll likely get it this AM. Well, it'll be here - I won't see it until Christmas AM! Updated family photo then...

Thanks for the interest and the pictures! I am lovin' this knife. I love every knife I buy for the first week..... but I'm getting a different vibe this time. And i'm diggin the feeling.

I like the two flair-outs creating a decent finger guard. A good thumb ramp is important to me.

I really like Titanium. I think I will start carrying my Surefire Titan. Also I am going to try to trade my good watch for a titanium one. I'll be a titanium carrying fool!:D:D:D

The Waimea looks great to me. Betting it is as well made as the TNT which does not get the recognition that it deserves. I think the TNT is a heck of a nice EDC.
 
I love my little Waimea, sharpest folder I own and it doesn't get carried as often as it should.

Bringing this threat back to the top after more than a week because I was handling mine tonight, put my thumb in a just a little wrong spot and promptly got cut. This knife is SHARP!
