Another cococarta Ember!! Very cool.
These are fantastic photos!! I would like to go there in real life! Nice RHK as well.
Wow, you've got some really sweet gear for only being 9 years old! Add in the great photo and writing skills, your parents must be really proud.A geeky knife moment for sure, but oh so satisfying for that knife OCD @Zeroedin was talking about this week.
This Sebenza and I both sharing our birthday today.
That’s awesome. I’ve done it several times. Mainly on doors that lock behind you when they close. I normally would just lay it down to prop the door from closing, not necessarily wedging it like that.I used the hell out of this Thorburn, it was even a door stop a few times. Had a lot of wear on it that was hard to photograph unless it was in the right light. In my experience, black knives usually show more wear in photos because of the contrast.
You know I have no use for a utility knife in my line of work. That’s what an insingo is for
Now if I was scoring Sheetrock all day I may have to break down and use a razor knife. I wouldn’t be happy about it tho
Today I thought I would carry a high end and budget option side by side.
Now that allergies have driven me inside for the rest of the day I've switched to the Fox Knives Nighthawk.
Thanks for sharing that photo.

No offense, drywall guys, us carpenters need and appreciate your skills. 
I worked for a certain general contractor for several years. He used to tell me all the time “just cut what you need”. After we went to town with a good ole hammer saw to make holes where I needed to get he decided that he would cut any drywall out of the way for usIf I was scoring sheetrock all day I wouldn't be happy either, but not about the knife--it would be about my chosen profession.
Congrats on the new job! You have great taste!
So I've been gabbing here all day both by PM and in this thread while failing to be on topic. I've had a relaxing day, resting my cranky knee, running a couple errands, as well as enjoying and snapping pics of my new Cheburkov Hudson Lightweight. It came scary sharp out of the box with an easy, smooth flipping action, and I can feel it breaking in nicely with every cycle. It's a really simple, unadorned design with sublimely clean details and I feel lucky to have finally found one.
Imgur seems to have just gone down while I was choosing a fourth pic. These three show up in my preview--let's see if they show up in the thread.
Haven't bought a Gerber knife in years. Seen this one and took a chance. I'm shocked, the fit and finish is good. The action is good. No more blade play than my Spydercos.
The only thing about the knife I can say negative is the grind is off. It'll easily shave hair on one side, but not the other. How should I fix that, just a complete resharpen? If so, I'll just wait until the blade is dull.
For a $40 Gerber, I'm blown away. The knife is too large for me though. Not sure if I'll keep it or not just yet.
I like the layered G10 too.
