  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Been on the fence about adding a firetac to the rotation for a long time, but thanks to @Icky Thump’s great pics, @Lapedog’s valued opinion, and especially @abbazaba’s kindness & consideration, I was pushed over the edge. Should’ve got one a long time ago :)

How’s the cutting ability of the blade?

I would have loved to see these Firetacs in a slicer grind.

It’s only seen very light use so far, and still has the factory edge. It cuts pretty well, especially for a RHK. Right there with the skinny slicer

rounded all those sharp points on the butt, now much better.
Lanyard hole is wide, why not attach some copper threads in each cutout?
Cool hero in warm light.
 
I've been wearing a Shoei Rf1200 for a couple years with a Sena 10r. Last week I picked up a Arai Xd4 added a Sena 20s. I wanted something with a beak and more ventilation for riding on forest service roads. Both fit my head great, I feel the Shoei is a touch higher quality..
Fitment is also very important and although even with some helmets you can change the pads inside to fit better it seems some helmets cater to rounder heads or narrrow depending on the manufacture.
