Everyone's latest acquisitions!

That Gedraitis looks really nice, how's it operate?

Kinda like the old Pro-Tech Ciabatta, you press the blade in to unlatch it then release quickly and the spring kicks it open...not "technically" an auto since you're manipulating the blade to open it.

I was sure that I would scroll past that first pic to reveal a purple backside.

I wish but I have a purple g-10 scale on the way!

This came in recently, it's a monster for sure! I thought the first cleaver was big!

Excuse the crappy work pic.

Looks good love the Apocalyptic finish
I’ve got a FDE on the way in SW . Looking forward to checking it out and if I like it I’ll probably get some Goat scales.

what are you waiting for?!?!

I might say it's laziness, but people have seen me work harder this past week to do the new scales on my Shaman and Microtech MSI. But I do think it's laziness...

Here are a few that arrived this weekend...

* Bestech Slasher KnifeCenter Exclusive in Magnacut and Marbled Carbon Fiber - this has a bit better detent for a crossbar lock.
* Vosteed Talarurus (who names these!?!) in 14C28N and Blue Canvas Micarta (I missed wiping the oil off the blade for pics, whoops). The Vosteed is a little too short for me to palm it and flick open quickly without failure, or to close it, so likely it's going back.
* Reate EXO-U Utility Knife Gravity Knife in Purple Aluminum
* Original Goat Stocky Goat Ti "Drift" scales, anodized in green for Hogue Doug Ritter RSK

Don't squeeze the Vosteed down into your palm when trying to pull back one-handed on the crossbar lock in order to let the blade drop onto your hand!

You basically never fully heal at this point lol.

Except for the Dirac Delta, everything in there is fairly new

Crappy work pic be damned. All I see is one fine looking knife!

Thanks…I’m liking it!

I’m not generally a fan of frn scales…although I do see the utility of them and love the weight savings. I will likely try to source some aftermarket grips in the future.

These 2 knives were just dropped off in my PO Box today . . .

1) A Heed Industries SeaKnight (with unique built-in adjustable handle weights) to add to my balisong collection:

And, 2) a Quiet Carry Drift LC (BLSW) that will be added to the list of knives for possible pocket carry:

The Drift LC is the only model of knife that QC makes that I like because it uses a hole instead of thumb studs as an opening device.
