Is "old school modern folder" oxymoronic? How about "new old stock"? My new-to-me Al Mar SERE 2000 arrived just in time for Throwback Thursday from woodysone on the left coast, but I ask because it's a great example of the sort of old school modern folders that I love, like my BMK 710's or AFCK's. I figure it's a throwback too, as it's no longer in production despite there still being some new old stock available at dealers here and there.

Anyway, I'd say I had a seriously duh moment with this knife, but it's actually been a pretty duh 24 hours. I've been toting this around, extolling its virtues, taking lots of pics, tied up a lanyard, had it in and out of my pocket more than a few times, and only realized about a half-hour ago that the clip was set up for left-hand pocket carry. I did at one point think it odd that the handsome Al Mar logo was on the lock side of the blade and there was even a light clip wear mark on the ostensible "show" side. I just went back and looked at a bunch of Martin's posts, too, and those knives of his I saw were all set up for right-hand carry, Oh well, I just dealt with the world's two tiniest screws and got the nicely butt-mounted clip reversed. Next time for right-hand carry pics....

A birthday present from the wife. Definitely not something I'd consider buying myself, but I really like the fact that she's forcing me out of my wheelhouse. You don't know, what you don't know.

... all right combo edge, I've avoided you forever, let's see how you roll.

Happy Birthday brother

Well, thanks to TheFactor I was convinced to pickup one of the OffGrid Tracker X-2 knives

had this turtle bead that goes with the texture of the handle quite nicely

Quite the robust knife, while still having a thin grind behind the edge,

Those are made for RMJ by Chattanooga Leather Works. Excellent quality.

Good to know, I still use the Kydex sheath they shipped with mine. I’ll have to go look at theirs.

Happy birthday! And a great EDC as always.

Glad you like it Gary and hope enjoy it as much as I do mine. Your turtle bead is a perfect match and looks awesome on that knife !
