I love all of your Shiro's, especially the 95t. Handled one at Blade, and it was just love at first flip. Definitely my favorite one on the table.
I feel really bad about Igor, such a tragedy.

Learned something new today, cleaned the Sent folder, thanks man !Hey man, those are still great knives!
I like Matt's designs a lot in general, from his production collaborations to his customs all-around... Just wanting to help here; Did you check your sent messages file as well?
One day I'll get one of the "real" Diskin's, for now those will do it, I got few other more desirable pieces on the list before I spoil myself with one like yours...

...and that tree will never harm anyone again.
I had a feeling the Thorburn wouldn't stay out of your pocket for long.
Lol! I probably won't carry it again until I get it cleaned-up and resharpened. I used the hell out of it today by cutting a bunch of old silt fence, it's dull as a butter knife at the momentBut hey, at least I actually use it, I wonder how many Thorburns are just pocket jewelry lol!

That's a great way to ensure every day is a good day! ;-)
Hey, I didn't know Sebenza's grew on trees! Where's the orchard?!
I have owned several CRK's and always talk myself into selling them. I'm forcing myself to keep and use this one and I am really enjoying that process.
This is a hybrid crop I'm developing.![]()
In all seriousness I'm bored out of my mind at work and decided to see if I could balance the knife on a bamboo plant. It worked so I took a picture.
Nice man! Mine was so filthy when I showed it to Thorburn he immediately felt the urge to take it apart and clean it. They are meant to be used, he told me he hammers on the spine of everyone before they leave his shop to test the lock to ensure they won't fail even when abused.
