Everyone's latest acquisitions!

Doc look above that’s Gunstock in phresh finish, I thought it looks too shiny. I will go with phresh

I have a video of the MSI in action on YouTube (DocJekl) that might show off the finish better? Again, this is Aluminum and was called "In The Buff" at the time I ordered earlier this year. And not too shiny.

 
Those are neat looking little things, what makes them difficult to open? Stiff detent or what? Most ZT’s are pretty slick in my experience.
Actually, I don't know. A lot of variables. It has been frustrating. Especially the 'user error' variable.

I need to get it out of the box and try again.

And my ZT 0562TI is excellent. Maybe the variable of 'high expectations' visited me..
 
Just the salad bar portion of the Brazilian Churrasco meal (crab salad, pasta salad, mushrooms, crab sushi roll, melon) plus we had like 12 kinds of meat.

I'm not at my man DocJekl DocJekl 's level, but did manage to have a great NKD over the weekend!

Got a few new Case knives from the local hardware store:

That white synthetic Slim Trapper was purchased to pair perfectly with a little bit'a REX FOHTY FYVE I got in on Friday:

Nice haul, but I dunnnnno… the Spydie looks more “snowdrift” white, while the Case looks more “classic Wedgwood teapot” white. ;)

NO U!!!! 🤣 🤣

Actually, I have to say it looks like the camera picked up gradients that aren't on the actual thing, or maybe I just can't perceive any difference, maybe. Oof!!!

Just bustin chops. I’m the last person who should critique color matches.
 
My two gorgeous David Mary David Mary Customs.

All I can say is WOW!!! I had a thousand ideas of what I wanted the finished product of these knives to look like when contracting with David for their build. I probably drove him nuts with my ideas for handles and all other ideas I had for options. One option for sure that I knew I wanted was "the extra grind thingy on the top of the spine by the tip" which David educated me of its terminology that it was called a Swedge. 🤣 After constantly over-thinking my ideas I finally asked David to design the handles whatever way he wanted and surprise me - he agreed. 😊 Man-O-Man talk about an excellent request on my part! I couldn't have asked for a better looking pair of knives. David crafted Picaso-esque designs. Thank you DMC!!! ❤️

Hankthetank74 Hankthetank74 - I had a super smooth transaction w/ Jason for my latest Medford too. Thank you sir! 🫡

My birthday was last week and this is what my son got me. I have quite a few knives and some fairly expensive, but this knife right here is better than all of them and definitely means a lot to me. He's a junior in college and doesn't have a ton of money so it's a tear jerker for dad❤️IMG_20240827_110235188~2.jpg

I've got a couple inbound from Josh, ( navman navman ), and I'm pretty excited. The 3.25" Sheepsfoot is S90V, and the 3.5" chisel ground "Tanto" is 4V.
It's been a real pleasure getting to know Josh as both a maker and a friend and I think these will be valued members of the inner circle.

Pix just received before their mailing tomorrow. Anchors Aweigh!
