Everyone's latest acquisitions!

I love the musical little "TIIING" sound it makes when you close it with the auto pivot installed, it's really much nicer than it has any right to be. The only other knife I have that makes a similar sound is a Brad Zinker custom, a knife which cost vastly more than these do. These are really very nice!!

Ya know, I was going to leave it as a manual while deciding if it’s going to be a keeper or a catch-and-release, being the third absolutely unneeded knife purchase within a few days. Then I said screw it, let’s see how ol’ 12-thumbs Linguini can see how this thing goes together. Instructions are ridiculously clear and damn near idiot proof, even for a mechanically advanced idiot like myself. Everything came apart and went back together without a hitch. Adjusting the pivot is a piece of cake, and the blade is perfectly centered. It snaps open nice and smooth on setting 1, there’s zero play in any direction, and unlike every other OTS auto I own, I can close it with one hand. It’s a whole different knife after the conversion, and there’s no more question - it’s definitely a keeper, and quite likely to get carry and use time now. And you’re right, it’s much nicer than you’d expect from anything at this price point.
 
Scored one of these:

But this is really why I had to have it:

This was a numbered knife available at Red Hills Cutlery's Bourbon & Blades event, it doesn't look it, but that's a rotopen signature, not an marker (the signature is hard to capture in direct light).
 
This one just came in. I keep being blown away at the Two Sun knives I’ve been acquiring. This is the TS186, ti frame lock with Timascus inserts and M390 steel. Perfect ergos, action, fit and finish and the M390 from them is testing between 60-62 HRC these days. And this cost me all of….$150. The Chinese are killing it
