I ran into Ken Onion today. I can't say where or how, but he was super cool. We talked about knives and what he is currently working on. I had my g10 spec bump on me by chance. He told me that the spec bump is his favorite design he has ever made. It was really cool that he took time out of his busy day to chat with a fan. He had some friends with him and asked for a picture of me and Ken with our knives out. I think he had a crkt ripple. I can't be sure it was a ripple, but I think it was. Ken is one of my favorite designers of all time, so it was really special to me to meet him.
 
Awesome, I really like a lot of his designs. Which is why I also have some production knives designed by him.

That's interesting if he was carrying a crkt ripple instead of a custom ripple he makes himself, I wonder why..

Maybe it was a custom. I didn't get a great view of it. Here is a pic that I edited so I don't give anything away.

My S30V Blur is one of my favorite knives I've ever owned. I don't love all his designs but he does a lot of things right. Seems like a really good guy from everything I've heard. ::thumbs up::
