Sent in fiancé's late grandfather's Executive for repair to be placed in a shadowbox eventually with some other things of his, his hat, his pistol, miniature model of his Corvette, his biker vest. Victorinox did an awesome job by me and gave me the other one back (in pieces, of course, but I can glue it back to a shape that looks right, and some random stuff, like backlock pieces? For what? Haha, I am not complaining, one is for display. Glad there is a usable one.

When it rains, it pours.

Been looking for the PE versions of the original Spyderco Ti & black G10 Lum Tanto Folders to pair w/the PS versions that I bought years ago and one of each pops up w/in just a week of each other.

So, in addition to the PE Ti Lum Tanto folder that I acquired last week, I just acquired a PE black G10 Lum Tanto folder too which is positioned above the PS G10 Lum Tanto folder in the photo below:

I now consider my Spyderco Lum Tanto collection complete with the 2 Ti Lum Tanto folders, the 2 black G10 Lum Tanto folders and the solid black micrata Lum Tanto fixed blade shown together here:

Yes, I know there are other Lum Tanto folder variations and there are 2 other Lum Tanto fixed blade variations (burgundy and black/green) but these are all that I care to collect. You don't see too many of these knives together in 1 place and they'll remain w/me until I'm gone.

That is absolutely amazing. Is the top Ti one the "appleseed" grind version? Or are they all variations on it, cause the tips all look a bit different, however with older knives like these, I imagine some use/sharpening went into play.

Awesome collections as usual.

Thanks!

You've got me on the grinds but I don't believe (and see no evidence) that any of them have been previously used or sharpened.

Given how long it's taken me to put this sub collection together, I'm fine w/them the way they are.

Just received this Phil Boguszewski handmade folder. 5" blade. Ironwood with silver wire inlaid . File work on back spring, bolsters, blade.
The only word I can use to describe is "magnificent"
Interestingly, in late 1980s, I had a PB folder in this pattern, but smaller and "plain".
Came across this knife and it was right knife, right time, etc. Had to purchase.
Best regards and God bless

Nice! Got the same one a few months back. Very useful assortment with some unusual bits, and not all that expensive.

I had another one, cheaper construction, and I busted the driver. It was a ratcheting driver. I like this. Those weird tri-shaped drivers are handy in that is what Nintendo used on the Wii. I took mine apart a couple years ago to replace the optical drive.
 
Was feeling froggy so I had to jump. For 5 bucks more than a Bugout in S30V I got a knife that size wise is on par with the PM2. I don't mind the grivory (kind of wonder if that's a Glock thing), and the green/grey color combo was on point for me. I've seen a lot about Benchmade quality issues, and though they do happen I've never experienced them myself with any of the dozen or so Benchmades I've bought. This one is no exception. Centering is perfect, she's razor sharp out the box, and the tolerances are great. Even comes deep carry. Very pleased with this knife.

I like mine as well…especially at the price paid. Only wish they had smoothed the grip under the clip. It’s a pocket destroyer. May have a go at that myself.
