Agreed. My newest favorites are the Satin AR 9.5 and the Satin FHFG INFImandu I just picked up from the exchange. I am very strongly considering selling/trading most of my other kin so I can stock up on those.Yeah, beefy knife for sure, I like mine.
Wow! For that material to be translucent like that it almost has to be some type of G10, right? Like a fiberglass weave with a clear to amber colored resin? Reminds me of a caramel or butterscotch candy. Whatever it is, it is cool looking.This is two 1k bags

Since I know there will be interest in the custom shop handles, I took some closeups. The wood on the Outlaw handle is G-Rex’d with some sort of translucent material.

The Fury is G-Rex’d with what appears to be a two tone canvas of sorts.

Nice score!! Really digging the color combo and the CS handle. Don’t forget, playing with it is a more than acceptable use for it.Got mine yesterday and I love playing with the FMV14, but I just can't fathom a use for it yet. We'll see, but I hope there are a few custom shop skinners, muks, and other smallerish blades on the exchange here shortly.

I like it, but I don’t have the slightest clue what it is. If you look at the close up picture, it almost appears to have a similar “grain pattern”(?) as some canvas micarta. Kind of like my Urgent Fury micarta. It’s a head scratcher, for sure.Wow! For that material to be translucent like that it almost has to be some type of G10, right?

That is a very handsome handle. Kudos!Here's a closer-up photo. The snow and the plywood it's sitting on top of should give a better reference of the darkness of the wood slabs. (Plywood is standard HomeDepot stuff)

Waiting to see it is now killing me. We share the burden here.I picked up a 500 for my pop for Christmas. It’s been killing me looking at it.
My plan was to keep my favorite 1 from my bag and sell whatever was left. This alpha regulator is begging to be handle deep into a boars throat. When running the dogs we use blades, not bullets, can’t risk shooting the pups. So this, I may just “have” to keep lol.That is the Alpha Regulator 9.5
