CRKT? Must be something cool

CRKT? Must be something cool

Shocking even It's the CRKT Xoc, pronounced "shock"

Maybe the 'Xoc' is a CRKT lookin' sideways at 1k

This just in, single bladed Swiss Army knife, cleverly named "Swiss Army 1", is about 93mm and about 5/16" thick, so it really slips into your watch pocket quite easily! and is a pleasure to use as well.

and compared to my Pioneer X model, this one is easier to tote around...

Whooooo that's a lot for a CRKT. So what are your thoughts on it so far?

It's really nice, and I needed an example of the Deadbolt lock for the collection...but I don't have anywhere near retail tied up in it either

I’ve got a Bantam Alox (blade + can opener/bottle opener/screwdriver) that I love for the exact same reason. It’s stupid thin and light, but just a joy to use.

I'm a little behind... I've picked up a few knives and passed them along before I could even get pics, lol.

Just in today, an Olamic Whippersnapper with S90V steel and honduran rosewood burl from my own stash of wood.

Boker Prime in curly birch and N690. I've already moved this along to a new home, lol.

I picked this ZT 0470 up about a month ago. It's undergoing some heavy modification right now. I forgot I had even taken pics of it.

An SFO GEC Sudbuster from CollectorKnives.

And a House of Blades exclusive Leek featuring titanium scales and a 20CV "random" blade. I anodized the knife before I had a chance to take pics, lol. Oops. I've since swapped out the clip too.

Finally snagged a Cheburkov Mini Russkie. I've liked the look of it since I first saw one but they don't come up often!

I'm growing a real chub for smooth textures

I finally got my mitts on the Bradford Guardian 3, with M390 steel and designed by Brad Larkin. I've got big fixed blades and small fixed blades, but I think that this is the biggest small fixed blade that I own. The nice thing about the Guardian is that if you want a different blade shape, blade finish, steel, or handle they've probably got one waiting for you.

I have many to post that came in within the past month or two. I’ll continue with these. Recently picked up a Weekender with green micarta scales on it’s release day. I also like it a lot more than I expected, and put it in my backpack that I carry around with me.



Also recently received a CIVIVI Badlands Vagabond flipper with carbon fiber scales and damascus steel blade. It came quite sharp, and the two bandaids I wore for a week were a tribute to that.

It’s not spring assisted, so when I tried to use the thumb stud the blade only opened up 60% of the way the first time and my thumb went right into it. Siri actually took my dictation to say “thumbs dud”, and I think that’s probably apropos, as the stud is just too close to the pivot to get leverage on it. It works much much better if you just stick with the flipper, it opens so quickly that way that you’d think it was assisted.

I can get all four fingers around the grip despite being a small knife (close to mini-griptilian size), and the flipper keeps my hand from sliding forward when open, so the lack of gimping on the back of the grip or blade does not make it more difficult to use as a tool. I also really like the deep carry pocket clip.

Yes, yes I did

I'll have to post multiple pictures, because they are all knives I've received in the past few weeks (just haven't had much internet free time!):

I scored a couple of great ones from the Exchange, a Lionsteel TM1, and the new Benchmade Weekender, which I admit I like a lot more than I thought I would:

Then my friend at @New River Knife Works has absolutely come through for me on these two Bokers and the following two GECs:

Last, but not least, I somehow scored a Sudbuster:

All in all, it's been a great few weeks for knives!

That weekender looks pretty cool. Never saw that model before.

Thoroughly enjoying the White River Ursus 45.
