A new to me Hoback Sumo.

I’m late to the party, but finally got a para 3 lightweight. It is possibly the best EDC knife I have ever used. The size, weight, and balance of edge retention and sharpening ease are simply astounding. This is a gem and a home run by Spyderco.

2 new additions to my karambit collection that I recently purchased off the Exchange that includes the G10 154CM Emerson Combat Karambit Flipper and the Fox 599TiCS (CF/Ti Elmax) pictured (top/bottom) here:

And the following is a photo of my small collection of karamibts which now includes (top to bottom):

Fox 479
Fox 599 TIiCS
Emerson Combat Karambit Flipper
Spyderco Karahawk
Spyderco Karahawk Black
Spyderco P'kal
Bastinelli-Marcaida Pika (2)

BTW, the reason I own 2 Pikas is that one is for backup (in case of loss) but also because I sometimes carry one on both my strong and weak sides.

LOL!

I had some pretty cool ones come in over the past few days.

First up is a Boker M4 Sherman. This knife is so freaking cool! The blade was hand-forged by Chad Nichols and is made from steel salvaged from a United States Sherman tank!! Seriously! How cool is that? The scales are burlap Micarta and titanium. The knife features a deep carry clip and over-travel stop... And is crazy smooth. This is probably the coolest knife in my entire collection. Boker overheated the Micarta just a tad when drilling the forward hole, but other than that... The fit and finish is superb.

It came in really nice packaging too...

Next up is another Boker with a crazy cool damascus blade. This one a barlow. This awesome knife has a blade forged from a modern, German Leopard tank! The covers are Desert Ironwood and the bolster is Micarta. This is from the Micarta Integral line that doesn't have liners.

And another Boker barlow. This one is a full Micarta integral. VERY light! It also features N690 steel, which I am a fan of.

Next we have a siiiiiick Kephart from CPK! Delta 3V, canvas Micarta, and titanium hardware. Does it get any better than this? I really don't think it does...

And then I received a couple knives I had shipped out to have reblades done.

First up was the Spyderco Delica Wharncliffe in Damasteel. I'm super happy with how this turned out and will have a review of the shop that did it up in the next week or so. If I could change one thing, it would probably be to add a mirror finish to the blade. I think that would really make the Damasteel pop. I'll be shipping it off soon to have the handle engraved... Maybe I'll have the blade refinished too.

And last we have a Benchmade 945 Mini Osborne with a MagnaCut(!) blade (with a razor sharp edge from REK Knives ).

Thanks!

I’m pretty stoked for those too! The DamaCore McBee should be done next week, but the Sebenza is probably still a year out or so. The maker for that one is super popular and pretty backed up.

Managed to snag one of these CRK Pacific's and it just came in. I think we both really like it!

Inbound...I couldn't pass up this weird old OTF, I suspect it's like a manually engaged version of the stabilizer in the SOG Pentagon OTF



"Unique among front openers the "Le Superoto" features a unique "stabilizer switch" which when the blade is open, allows the user to lock the blade down by pushing the lever forward, so there is absolutely no blade movement at all; (even without the stabilizer switch it locks up better than a Microtech or Benchmade!), in fact, in our opinion, it has the tightest lockup of any front opener ever made. "

LOL Wow, first one of these I've seen on this board I think. I picked up one of these little Kershaws when there was a cool guy I'd met at a brewery anniversary party and he was opening bottles left and right with it. I forget where I got it, but I think I was trying to meet a threshold for free shipping and it was marked down to like five bucks. I don't even know where it is right now, but it was an adorable little thing, as far as "two finger knives" go.

Long time no new spydie. This thing feels yuge!
