I'm relieved you did that. I was sitting here talking to myself about that knife, trying not to buy it. ;)

I sure wish you made your mind up sooner! I've spent more on knife stuff this week than ever before...but hey. I reckon I need to upgrade my priority rankings.

I didn't plan on purchasing another knife for at least a couple months. Normally I either just put my phone down or walk away from the computer and the sharks help keep me honest. It's just a knife. I wasn't so lucky this time. Needless to say I can't wait to get this knife in my hands.

It fell under my if I have enough money in hand (not extra, just enough), the sharks fail me, and I take as much time as humanly possible to post "I'll take it" it was meant to be... I waited till almost 2.30 before even opening the thread. I then took ten painfully slow minutes typing my reply on my phone. I even turned WiFi off at the last second. I tried.

If that's not enough it even fulfilled my very specific profile and configuration requirements that had kept me from purchasing more than one knife a month for over a year and a half. Well, until last Friday, hah. A rustic wrap 3FJ. Yes please!

If you made it this far in my reply you understand. It happens.

Thanks. I've got a few that match, well actually, my wife does...

Hey Phillip, I'm curious - jade over white use to be "double mint" and jade over lime was "margarita". Is there something I'm missing or has the terminology just changed? See: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...hristmas!!-12-20-13?highlight=margarita+arete

Oh yeah...Andy had it wrong back then.:D







and some point in the last three years w/ 3 different guys writing the threads it has morphed into
doublemint=jade & lime
spearmint =jade & white
 
I like margaritas. :D What can I say. I do remember the spearmint now that you bring it up.
