Very nice additions my friendIn the last month-and-a-half I've received, in early June off the Exchange, a very clean large CRK Inkosi Insingo....

...and this beautiful made-to-order Andrey Biryukov No. 10 which I commissioned mid-June, was made and shipped inside of 3 days, then sat in a black hole at the airport near Moscow for three weeks after clearing customs. After it finally went airborne it arrived her in a little over two days. Fast at both ends with a long layover in the middle....

Thanks for the kind words on my acquisitions, brother. I really enjoyed the weight and feel of the translucent blue Manix LW I used to have, but the BD1 steel not so much. I like that one of yours with the S110V--looks like a great summer carry option. How is the Spydie version of S110V? I didn't much care for the Benchmade S90V in my old 940-1 and was skeptical of the high number S series steels for a while but am digging the 90 and 125's in my Biryukovs.Just this one recently...

Yeah I had the BD1 years ago but didn’t really carry it much. My tastes have changed so I might use this one more, so not sure how it will perform yet...probably pretty good for my edc stuff. I can’t carry those high $$ blades like you...lol Save that for my pistoles and cannonsThanks for the kind words on my acquisitions, brother.

Here is the new Spider Monkey @JOELSM. Thanks for your great pics. Wasn’t sure if I would like the patina, but so far digging it.
