Thanks Sharp & Fiery this thing is awesome!

Sheath is pretty cool too.

Flawless quality. Smooth as a baby's butt.

These came in last week, but I was too busy to post them all. The 2 carbon fiber beads came from Etsy.

* The Demko AD 20.5 CF knives in clip point and sharks foot were ones I bought at release in 3V a while back. I shipped them out to Gary W. Graley so he could try them out and see if he wanted to keep one and install a lanyard on the other for me. He installed the lanyards.
* Kizer Sparrow in 154CM and laser etched blade, shipped from AD to Gary to try it out and see if he wanted to keep it, but it came back with a lanyard. He did keep the Kizer Invictus (for now )
* Terrain 365 neck knife in dendritic cobalt went to Gary so he could try it out first as well. I agree it's pretty thick behind the edge, but will make a nice rust proof car knife/camping knife and hopefully the microscopic serrations will keep it cutting for a long time. Did not alter the stock lanyard that is part of the handle wrap.
* From REK Knives came a set of Aramis Akhmedov gold CF scales and anodized REK clip for my incoming REC Spyderco Shaman in CTS-204P steel.
* Oknife Rubato 4 drop point in S35VN and rose carbon fiber.
* Oknife Multitool with locking D2 blade and tools (screw driver, bottle opener, can opener, file, Philips and flathead screw driver, and big scissors)

The three for which Gary installed a lanyard - they were installed this way so as to keep the knives slim in the pocket

A matching couple for the kitchen from the shop of David Mary:
- K-Slick XL in 15N20 steel
- TeenyChef in AEB-L
Both in natural micarta with nicely complementing micarta pins and his shallow groove along the axis to aid the grip a bit. Tons to like in this pair.

Just got this one in. Old Dominion Knife Works 3” chupacabra.

Been wanting to check one out. Tank of a little knife. Surprisingly light and compact for such a thick blade stock! The milling is excellent and provides a good grip. Great action on bearings and excellent lock up. The timascus accents are nice but the clip may be a little much for me. Prefer pj simple clips that don’t draw attention. Overall impressed so far.

Those are gorgeous! Not sure how long I can hold out on a K-Slick.

The big one arrived today

Oknife Rubato 4 drop point in S35VN and rose carbon fiber.

Love the artistic design for this folder .

They let the beautiful handle standout as the focus, with a subdued blade .

Too many knives have dissonant, loud decorations , shouting from every part .

The beholders' eyes bounce back and forth , like ping pong balls , with nowhere to rest .

Yeah. I started with the Rubato 4 in Ultem as the CF was out of stock. Now I’ve got both, and their scales do draw in the eye.

Fresh out of the mailbox from DLTs latest drop Para 2 Micarta cruwear. What a beautiful knife and I must say I was a little concerned because years ago on their initial release there was some quality control issues which is as most of us know or at least from my experience with Spyderco is very rare .Well I’m very happy to say and relieved this one is a perfect example drop free right out of box with a dead centered blade and rock solid lock up in all directions
Fit and finish with the Micarta is perfection. Also razor sharp probably one of if not the sharpest blade out of the box I own .

Got my Truffles in today, absolutely butter smooth button lock.

Nice! Both of my Truffles have a tracking number, but they'll be shipped at the end because they both have colored anodized hardware to get installed first.

Got a couple in today

* Spyderco Shaman REC exclusive in CTS-204P desert tan coated steel, and then instantly upgraded to my Akhmedov gold carbon fiber scale and REK Knives pocket clip. This clip is ano'd to match the scales. I may also have one that would match the blade.
* TRM Aton in Magnacut steel and flat carbon fiber scales, and then instantly installed a spare set of 3D contoured Titanium scales and Ti clip.

I considered installing the gold carbon fiber scales and REK clip on my black S30V shaman, moving the blue and black CF from the black S30V Shaman to my 15V Shaman arriving tomorrow, and putting my RGT Micarta scales on the 204P Shaman.

I was also surprised the TRM has different thumb studs that are not painful to engage, and don't need rubber or polymer o-rings like the old thumb studs.

That's a welcome change. I replaced my Atom studs with Ti Connector studs a while back.

Yeah I thought about going that route but I just wanted to try it out before I do anything wild with it.

Just on the chance I didn't like it. I think you'll be satisfied, mine drop shuts smoothly.

A Petrified Fish PF818 in red micarta, loving it so far. Probably a blue micarta Flavorist will be the next one.

New CJRB Pyrite with screaming sharp blade, excellent action, great price and now to carry it and see how it does against others I have available.[url=https://postimg.cc/fJ8MQSLy][/URL]https://postimg.cc/gallery/xk1zvNj
