I guess I got carried away this month.

Of the ones you got reciently which are your favorites and why? I have two different emersons on the way that I'm anticipating heavily. Ones a mini cqc8 in satin and the other is a mini roadhouse poboy. Hopefully the qc is good enough for me!

Well none of my 5 spydies have shown up yet. The domino I just bought but the other 4 are "arriving late" The zt0804 I bought I really like but the lack of a sharpening choil bugs me more than I thought it would. Great slicer though and the action is better than I expected it to be. My sebenzas are work horses. Do not have anything bad to say about them. The olamic rainmaker I sent back. Blade seemed to be not straight to me and the blade was so thin it wasn't comfortable to even really choke up on. So hard use cutting would not have been a pleasure.

This is totally me the past couple of weeks. Took 2 years off from buying and trying out new knives but it seems I'm back with a vengeance. To slow myself down I think I'm going to work on improving my flat stone sharpening skill.

Yeah I'm going to shoot my bows and work on other things as well. There is a point where this knife hobby can become ridiculous lol.

That's a lot of bugs in the mail Good! Good call on sending the rainmaker back. That bad CQ is uncharacteristic of them.

Olamic is a great company. I loved the 247 I had but traded it for a piece of archery equipment like a idiot. I have nothing bad to say about Olamic. I know they make great knives.

Oh and I completely forgot about the hinderer xm-18 I bought lol. I love it, I don't feel there is any cutting task it can't do aside from feathering wood. My only complaint is the cheap hardware it comes with. I hardly applied any torque to one of the scale screws and the head break off.

Yikes! Thats crazy. I bet they would send you a replacement. Or maybe it's just a good excuse to buy fancy colored hardware?;)
