Any body know a good hardware store to get grommets for Kydex?

I actually found some good ones at a local marine/boat supply place. They had a good selection with a lot of different finish options because they are used in making sails for boats.
 
In on one?!?
man, that last one was a marathon finish.
 
I got a new knife today (also got this .50 piece as change back at a coffee shop!):

inb4 happiness about the sexeh German signing back in!

Yup, that's right, with Parkour and Longboarding season winding down, I'm gonna have a lot of time for getting out to the woods and cutting stuff with the best knives in the world.

Thinking about getting a BK15, too.
 
Almost done with the long handled 16 for Dubz. Just need to handle it and put on the final edge, at this point. Maybe do a little more polishing work. All that polishing takes a long time! Then I can start grinding out that new blade for B.Mauser. I'm excited to do that one. It's gonna be a 9/11, which is fitting, since we designed it on 9/11.
 
tweaking the bike before the race:

aaaaaand my Inova X1 came while I was away.
I broke my non-rolling rule since I figured this would be tethered to my city bag and it's made in my state.
It has high/low, momentary, and lock-on. Build quality feels good, and the beam looks good to me. It takes a single AA.
Now I have to put a split-ring or lanyard of some kind on it so it won't roll (I really hate that - maybe I'll call up the company since we're neighbors...)

The High mode is significantly brighter than my surefire 6PLED, but the low mode is dimmer. Inneresting.

I got a new project this weekend, an older Coleman lantern for a few bucks at a yard sale. I can't wait to dig out the fuel and a little oil for the pump and give it a shot.

Oh, I also scored an old Fall's City bottle opener at a booth at my town's heritage festival on Sunday. I think my BK11 has been dethroned as my favorite bottle opener.
