's post with his 10-lifetime supply of replacement O-rings for his 'Zaan, I started digging through my tall cabinet's knife drawers for pic fodder, as I knew I had even more than that. At first I only found the last two packages I'd procured--mere piddling 10- and 14-count bags--and got this pic on my top-display-plus-2-drawer Spydie box.
Later, I found, under my CRK boxes, the 20-lifetime treasure trove of 'Zaan washers, though in fairness the handsome orange ones are silicone and too soft to work effectively. I'd still like to find a more striking color in a Viton washer than those I have. I'm sure I they're out there and will look again when the mood strikes me, though there's obviously no urgency to the matter as I'm still only on my second or third set ever.
As my knife is a StarTac, it made a good choice for a Wilson Combat Wednesday carry. This tight shot shows not only its snail trails but also the WC logo on the clip and the matching original bead, as well as the

Norvox
mod, like K-man's, named for its BF member originator who replaced his lanyard pin with a second stand-off and screw assembly. It adds un-needed extra strength but looks cool and is a better lanyard attachment IMHO. I've got Jekyll to Hyde lanyard/backspacer mods on a few other of my CRKs, but like keeping this one in its current form.
...and just coz I've got several of 'em, one more pic, as if this post isn't long enough already....
