Same as yesterday. I'm fighting the urge to pick up the Native 5 FRN with the FFG.

Donut, great pic. I have one of those from back in the day when you could get that knife from Wal-Mart for like $35. S30V, American made, and Spyderco design for $35? HELL yes. I used mine just the other day to break down some boxes. I run it pretty sharp, and it cut through those like a laser. Here's a pic of mine from way back:

Oh Brother! I walk away for two hours, and this is what happens? :rolleyes:

"Quiet" got it right: the knife-like object that I posted earlier is the "TOPS Lil Roughneck", and after a pass over the red DMT diamond surface, it will push-cut Saran Wrap. :eek:

Well, I was holding the plastic wrap under tension to help it along, but it worked.

TOPS has some goofy stuff in their lineup, but they also have some really practical knives.

The Brothers of Bushcraft, which you may have heard of:

The Ferret:

Even this, a modern take on the Kiridashi:

The key to their knives is to look past the "high speed, hardcore operator" advertising jazz, and focus on blade shapes and sizes.

Okay fellas, sorry for the commercial.....

Awesome! I think the Native gets lost in the shuffle between the Delica and the PM2 getting most of the attention around here, but it's a heckuva knife for a very low price.

Just give in. The FFG makes an already great slicer a razor. :D

Oh, it will happen here real soon. :D I see they're only around $80 now.

I can tell you that Shorttime is not wrong on the BOB. I have this knife and it feels amazing in the hand. The sheath is somewhat chintzy, but the knife itself is no joke. Definitely a quality tool.
 
On break enjoying a falafel pita with extra tahini sauce and harissa! My favorite!
Nothing better than chillin', listening to Doc Watson, and eating falafel...life is great today:thumbup:

But if you just rub some tahini sauce on that ZT... sooo good.
 
A friend helped me add a LH clip to my Reate Hills also carrying SAK Electrician & 4Sevens's Mini:

I like this sentiment, I am glad you are having a good day. Also, great knife :thumbup:.

Today, I went small:

(It's an old pic, but it's an old knife :D)
 
Well, this finally showed up.

Words can't describe the beauty, and pictures can't do justice...
So trust me when I say that this 0562 is absolutely breath-taking!

Thanks Matt (aka BellaBlades)!
