Tell me about the fixed bladeI’ve kind of lost track of which day it is, went to the coast with my wife. Still had this with me just didn’t get any use though. Now that we are back two things that I’ve learned, don’t drive through Bellevue/ Seattle ever and always carry some sought of folder just in case. View attachment 2660496
Looks like at least the sheath is a GG productTell me about the fixed blade
It’s a Sharp and Firery thistle, it used to look a lot better but I had to have a lanyard holeTell me about the fixed blade
I dug around through my knife drawers this morning until I came across something that piqued my interest and settled on the Wilson Combat Large 25 Starbenza. This one's the smoothest of the smooth and freest of any of my fairly large accumulation of CRKs and was that way from the git-go. I may not have even had this one apart in all the years since I acquired it.
The only downside of carrying the knife is it makes me miss our absent friend @Kettleman who withdrew from our numbers a while back.He and I often shared our appreciation for both 25's and WC CRKs.

I agree on missing Mr. Kettleman. He and I discussed CRK blades, guns and the like.
Nice knife
Yeah, Clays's a good dude and it was fun having him around. I keep hoping he'll pop back up on these pages like he did after a previous hiatus. Thanks for the kind words on the knife--it's most def one of my favorites.![]()
Yes he is. Looks like he was banned.
I can see why it is a favorite.
I wish I would have learned of CRK knives years ago. I would most only have a couple knives if that had been the case.
It doesn't seem that he was actually banned--that's just what he added as a Custom Title in place of displaying his membership level. I've seen a few others who have dropped out--and some who are still active, for that matter--use "BANNED" in a similar manner. He's not on the banned list.
This is correct. Clay “self-banned.” I do miss him as well
Going in for my seventh 12 hour night shift in a row... at least I have a Sebenza.

Now you are probably adjusted to nights, or that is how my body worked. Hopefully the nights were a little busy so they did not seem as long.Don't worry, when I get off tomorrow I get a whole 24 hours off before I have to start days on Sunday morning. Not that I'm bitter about this scheduling snafu or anything...
Awesome scenery and carry.Walked 10 miles in the mountains, now about to eat some tacos. I gotta say it was a good day

Hate covid did that to you. Hopefully you can get back to where you want to be.Carrying my Machinewise Sonora in Magnacut, Asher Knives Spyro in EDIT20CVS90V, and Kunwu Padre in DLC Vanax this weekend, with my Sig P365XL IWB (with optional manual safety, Wilson Combat grip module, Holosun HS507K GR X2 optic, and Sig Foxtrot Light).
I gained 10 lbs since my 1st Covid in January (long covid), soandnow my holster is uncomfortable; so this weekend I'm going back to my smaller P365 with laser and no optic in a pocket holster. Pics show my P365XL and P365X with my son's ZEV Z365X on a Grayguns grip module, which fits our pockets easily. My ZEV Z365 has a short Wilson grip to still make room for an optic in my pocket - I use the short mags with MagGuts upgrade to 12 rounds.

I'm modifying the baseplates on a old pair of 5 year old OG 15 round mags this weekend, to fit my new Wilson XL grip module on my bedside gun, as these didn't come with any spare floor plates because the X and XL didn't exist at the time. Showing my P365 with added safety, Wilson XL grip, TLR-6 HL light/laser, and XS Big Dot suppressor-height sights. If I can find the baseplates for the 15 rounds in an XL I'll use those instead - I may know someone who has them. These baseplates are actually aftermarket to make them fit the short grip better. I will be modifying the original baseplates that came with them.
