Absolutely stunning!
I heard it, sounded like a foghorn!
Is that a height joke? I'm convinced it is, even though I can't prove it. 😆
 
That one time I bought something for a laugh, only for it to show up and be amazing:

PeanutButtaJellah Kershaw Blur from SMKW!
Yep that's awesome. I hate my blur, but I actually want that one lol
Went on a buying binge on ACK the other day & this is 1 of 4 knives that I bought. It's a CKF Rassenti Ti Integral M390 Persian . . .

. . . which I bought to join two Spyderco Rassenti Ti Integrals -- a Paysan & a Nirvana -- that were already in my collection.

Sheeesshhh. Thats a trio. They are all amazing but for me I absolutely love the Paysan. It's just got everything for me. It's well far off but I finally got the spydie Griptilian to scratch the itch for a similar blade shape.

What is this? Me likey.
Machinewise Sonora. They were originally a balisong company that makes wicked balis. They made the Sonora as their first folder, supposed to give the same satisfying feeling you get from flipping a bali, but in a folder. They also have the Mojave, a really nice framelock. Both are sick, amazing quality, heat treat, machining, next level packaging, just great all around. I think they even hrc test each build and write the specific hrc of that blade on each COA. Still not sure they are my style, if the right one comes along maybe. I think they also have a really thorough, free, "spa treatment" like CRK offers.

Too rich for my blood currently, but maybe down the road.

same, that would be the most expensive knife i've ever owned. they come up on the secondary fairly often, sometimes there are *decent* deals. for me personally though, if im going to spring for a knife like that, i want it to be new. honestly for it to be made in the USA and how good the manufacturing is, attention to detail, customer service, packaging, everything, the price is certainly fair. Albeit expensive, but fair. If it said Marfione on it, you would need to remortgage your house to buy it. and it would be 55hrc.

At $800ish, I could buy another RH Tasca 2 (non-damascus this time) and have a little money left over.

Oh well. Soon as I am working again this will be moot.

Enjoy it Tommyswrx Tommyswrx
