I have slipped into the abyss.... bought a Rockstead Shin Pic's added :)

Oh my, I actually "understand" now...

All other high end production knives are ruined for me haha

Actually, I still love my CRK's, Hinderer's, and of course the Shirogorov's

BUT I have to tell you these Rocksteads are no joke, the action is better/smoother that CRK and the fit an dfinish is truly the best production I have personally seen...

I will get some pic's up tomorrow...

I bought the DLC YXR7... but I can see the ZDP version in my future... Lord help me and my credit card! haha

 

[G. Scott H.]

Dude! For that kind of coin you could have bought 13 of these! That's 1300 knives!

I absolutely love the look of the polished DLC, there is nothing else like it!

It is stunning to see in person, I mean I had seen a lot pf pictures and several videos, but as many have said to do the blade justice you have to see it with your own eyes.

and now that I have seen it for myself, in my own hand, well I am ruined for lessor production knives! haha

Thanks cchu518!


HAHA... I have been into knives for a lot of years, but I didn't join the forum until I decided to sell some

now, I must admit I will likely be selling a few more "lessor" (no disrespect meant) soon, to further my passion for high end production

They definately need to be seen in person for the "full Rocky experience"

Automatically, this thread needs pics.

wow! what beautiful pics! I need you to do a photoshoot of my lovely's! haha

 

[The Aflac Duck]

Thank you! I love taking pics of knives, especially Rockys

 

[rexbo]

OK.... there is only one way to explain your photo's... ACTUAL knife porn!!! haha

Joking aside, amazing man

 

[Dddrees]

Congrats, and welcome to the club!!

 

[JeremiahWeaver09]

spyderco endura is all you need

 

[The Aflac Duck]

Thanks again, Rex

And as DD said, welcome to the club (and the forum too):thumbup:

spyderco endura is all you need

Need and want are different things. Why even need an Endura when you can get an Opinel?

 

[rexbo]

Thanks guys!

I am glad to know that I am not alone in my admiration (sound so much better that addiction or sickness! haha) for nice productions knives!

on a side note... your avatar (blues Bender) makes me want to crank up some Jimmy so bad! haha

 

[The Aflac Duck]

Crank it up man! Rock out with your new Rockstead

 

[Sonnydaze]

Tyler, those are photos that are REALLY well done. Darned roses are sweet stuff.
Yeah, a Rocky would be nice, but not likely for me...
Happy New Year to all of you folks.

 

[The Aflac Duck]

Thanks Don! Photography is another hobby of mine.

Rocky's may seem like pocket jewelry, but they are workhorses. Especially the Higo series, they're like Japans version of a Sebenza.
