Acquisitiveness — Just a thought, admitting that forecasts of future events are not as good as hoped nor as bad as feared . . . If China flounders even close to as badly as is being forecast, materials & finished goods sourced from there will only increase in price and decrease in availability.
Should you be thinking of an acquisition — from there — you might want to get it while the getting is good.
I know we are all supposed to be kinder & gentler but at base I am a ruthless heartless bastard who wants what I want and I am pleased when our homeland rises above the rest — which is forecast to happen, in company with our ‘Norte’ buddies.
So, things like cheap UHMWPE, chinesium stainless, fast & cheap shoes, starter super—coarse industrial diamond files (thinking reprofiling here), magnets, stevia ( yup, something like 80% of stevia comes from china ).
Just a thought…

So you're telling me to ruthlessly buy lots of sugar and magnets now so I can afford to buy more knives in the future?

Guardian Tactical GTX-025, just in from the exchange (thank you, vbjoe7 vbjoe7 !!). Why Guardian discontinued this line, I’ll never know - action is just superb, the lines and ergos are very nice, everything about it feels like quality. If the action on the Recon 035 is anything like this, I might have to do something crazy like get one.

Picked this up for a screamer of a deal from a local dude! It was so cool to meet up with a local! I wonder if knife meet ups can be a thing...

Giant Mouse Nazca in green Micarta. This is such a cool lil knife. Action is outstanding.

Edit: Dear lord this thing is friggen slicey.
