Hi! The username was available so I just couldn't help myself because I'm just that mature. Been lurking for awhile as I'm getting back into the swing of things with folding knives. I started with them before turned 21 but then firearms became accessible and my bank account has never been the same. I've pretty much perfected my two carry pieces though so now I'd like to get a practical QUALITY EDC knife. No offense to my Kershaw Leek, but it's my old beater knife and looks like a 50 year old rented mule. There are two knives that have really caught my eye considering how far knives have come in the last 8 years with quality materials, ergonomics, and PVD coatings like DLC etc. I won't say which two for now, I'm hoping to get a bit established here so I can sell my Benchmade 755 MPR whenever I'm allowed to post in the knife trade forum. It's not a bad knife by any stretch of the imagination, but the two I'm drooling over are very expensive and I'm not a collector: I sell to buy a replacement and don't want more than one Niche/EDC item. I've been reading a lot here and I'm glad to see a diverse crowd who enjoy the differences that make knives delightful. I hope I didn't step on any toes with this intro and again HELLO!

Great intro and welcome! Interested to hear what you have your eyes on!
 
:) Welcome ! So far you don't seem much weirder than most of the rest here . :rolleyes:

Just don't be tempted to post anything "Anthony Weinerish " .
 
I judge things based on materials, coatings, and ergonomics and I'm prepared for flak from those that don't see these as comparable: Vox Viper Fortis in Titanium and the WE knife co 712E Balaenoptera. Both are very very close as far as materials, weight, dimensions etc. I need to seek this Benchmade first though, can't justify the new knife with those prices.
 
I don't know how to quote people but thank you both I'm sure I'll like it here.

Welcome, any username is okay. We don't care.
What knives are you interested in?
You will need a Gold membership to sell, but I guess you are aware of that.

I'm guessing I have to pay for a Gold Membership. I really want either the Viper Fortis or the WE 712E
