Yeah, I have one of the Sony Hi8 digital cams with the fire wire port.

I added a fire wire port to my PC, so I can shoot the video directly in, edit, and shoot it back to tape without any loss. It works great!

Now I'm just waiting for the VCR's with fire wire ports to come down in price. I think that would give the best quality. After all, I don't want to just put another piece of crap video out on the market.......... there's already MORE than enough of those to go around!

As for my favorite non-Benchmade........ I'd have to say the Jaguars are up there, after a PIN fix of course.

And, not to sound like an ingreat, but I have one of those blue handled China babies, and I actually like it. The pins have held up pretty well so far, but what I like the most is the serrations. They are SHARP, and that tight pattern cuts right through rope or anything else I've had to go at.

It makes a great work knife........ when ya' don't want to ruin your 42.

The existing RCA wire and plug technology is pretty ancient. It's not just the 240 lines of resolution but all the "noise" that goes with it. But I have found that the s-connector does a pretty good job of eliminating the noise, and most TV's do not deliver much more than 360 lines of resolution anyways. We found a High Quality VCR with S-connectors that someone had returned for about $100. It's a JVC and very complicated to try and figure out how to use. Perhaps that is why they gave us a good deal on it

Most stores offer a return policy, that if you did not like the quality of the copies your getting, you could take the vcr's back for a refund. I took back a LOT of video capture cards, tell I found one I liked. Of course for the auctions, people really don't care about video, but they do seem to like the animation's quite a bit.

I think they are pretty nice for a China knife. With the washers, the action is real smooth on it. I ordered 100 of them, and I am pretty sure they will take that as a sign that they have satisfied peoples complaints about the pins. Now I am going to try and work on the high money boys, to see if I can get them to import some Japan made butterfly knives. Now that I found out that Seto still has them in their catalog.
