Why the Akrapovic in your safe ? Catalytic converter ?

Naw I think it was around $900.00 just for midpipe and Muffler. It’s all titanium that’s why it turned all purple from the heat . But it’s a loud exhaust so mostly only ran it at the track .

Thank you Sir and yes I like to keep them secure and it’s rated for fires to for so many hours can’t remember lol. Anyway yes the collection has grown over the years and had even over flowed into a drawer or two. I really need to have a sale but I love them all lol. But as you can see I’m running out of room

I love that safe

Thanks brother! Did a lot of research before I bought it. Watched them drop it off a crane in testing and it stayed intact and one of the competitions exploded into pieces. Definitely built like a tank no doubt and all hand made in the U.S.A also love the quick easy push button access.

Just got this CTS-XHP Native Chief in, sort of as a compliment to my serrated K390 Police 4 (the steels, one being easy to sharpen and grind, other not so much, and plain-edge, is the complimentary aspect, because I like a large, useful pocketknife) as well as... it's Halloween, man! This model is really interesting. It isn't a lightweight, like my Police 4.... LW, but this has no liners, where as the Police 4 LW has none. Interesting! It reminds me of a Buck insofar as the knife is made in the backlock, and that feels like it will last.

It is described as a "high hardness 440C, or stainless D2". Goes to show stuff does not need to be that fancy. Look at my (let's call it "plus") new Spyderco in 440C+ ! Proud as heck of it! That's funny. I bet some Instagram steel nerds would freak out if you showed them Spyderco comparing XHP to 440C.

Also, got a purple anodized Boker USB, also in D2, so I can have a TRULY CA legal OTF (My Microtech UTX-75 is 2.2in, it needs to be under 2", blah, I am not too worried) but this also serves the dual purpose of being something I don't have to fear banging and bashing around as much as the Microtech, plus, the purple is my style. Wonderful little knife to give me some confidence in the OTF platform.

Carrying all of this with a new-to-me 74mm Vic Executive, my favorite small-size SAK, with beautiful custom scales! Because, you gotta carry your SAK.




hhmoore Those are some beautiful scales on that PM2 you got there! I am about to get a pair of maple scales for mine, as well, I feel that will hold up better than Ti! Might I take a guess at where you got these? Custom Scale Division? They remind me of the wooden scales for my Dodo, which is Desert Ironwood, do not know if maybe this is the same? Very good-looking nonetheless, I wish Spyderco (or Knifecenter rather, as they order the exclusive) used a more premium wood for the wood series instead of "paakawood".

Also, I found my purple Zippo, finally! I thought I would take a picture of some purple stuff.

Can’t think of a more appropriate knife to take to the car wash . Need to get some pesky feathers out of my grill I’m just glad there weren’t any feet sticking out

Really like the wharnie versions!

Felt the need to get some Maxamet out today. On a roll for pairs lately, it seems. This pair has reprofiles that I am quite proud of. I'm a bit crazy for sure, but Maxamet is one of my favorite steels to sharpen. For its crazy high wear resistance, it behaves very well on stones and consistently comes up super sharp for me. Both of these will treetop hair. It's not the steel for everybody or every situation, but I love the stuff.

I agree on all aspects and I absolutely love Maxamet .
Beautiful pair and reprofiles !!

Got this out yesterday, honestly intending to sell it. Then, it started whispering to me, and I decided I should keep it. It's mine, after all. My own.

Ok back from the car wash and got all the feathers out of my grill . I only found a couple of toes so I don’t feel to bad
Part of tonight’s table top carry

A bit of a delayed reaction on my part, but I had to go back to take a look at this again. I love the inlay you got on that one, beautiful color and character. Really, really nice.

Are those bonefish? Or ladyfish?

We call these O'io, and you are correct, they are bonefish.

Incredibly fun to catch on a pole while wading in the shoreline water flats.

They are challenging to clean, but make a delicious lomi poke.

Thank you so much my Friend! I actually wanted a lighter Bog Oak and found this one with the Carmel like colors and had to have it .
