My EDC for a Night Out

Not sure which is worse: assimilation or a Bat’leth where the sun don’t shine.
Wow, nice Patek! Elegance and understatement in equal measure. Wear in good health. 😁

Assimilation is bad but owning a mall ninja knife is worse, IMO. Thanks for noticing the Aquanaut; I bought it second-hand a few years ago, before the price skyrocketed.
 
Those are some cool knives, although I would not carry the big one (Cold Steel?) if I were wearing a suit. lol
You'd be surprised, I bet that slim mofo could fit in a suit without a doubt! It carries very well if what you're wearing will hold a lb.
But mainly included for its pure fancy-levels. 😁
Wouldn't carry that unless I'm in known friendly company, or known unfriendly company. No in between, lol!

I am old so I carry more discreet knives that don't cause a panic when I pull one out to pick at my teeth during dinner (*_*). As the Japanese say, ja, mata, ne? (Japanese for Later, Alligator).
 
How do you like those bolt-on waves?
I like 'em! Some necessitate a slightly different pull, but no different from just learning to wave a Cold Steel vs a Spyderco, just a matter of getting the hang of it! I did not even loc-tite them in like the instructions demand, just the screw supplied seems to hold 'em in well.
I think I probably prefer the Spyderco wave when I can get it, but for me, it makes knives like the Yojumbo more viable.

So far have aftermarket waves on a Lil Matriarch (Wise Men Company), Yojumbo, PM2 and Endura (5x5) and like Wise Men best, but... it's the priciest. Going to start going in and trying the retention rings. I just need to put a full day to set aside to swear at and fiddle with the knife to do that, lol, probably the weekend
 

APurvis Progeny V2 in Damasteel and my new toy, an OG Reate Torrent with custom anodization on most of it. Now I just need to find a way to get a tumbled finish on the blade…
 
Upper left is my Goyard men’s slim billfold, against which is my full custom slip joint knife by Alan Davis, with a Vegas Forge carbon raindrop Damascus, and Himiyalan ram’s horn handles; next is a Patek Philippe Aquanaut watch, under which is a William Henry money clip of Mokume Gane with a mammoth tooth insert; and a blue leather Patek keychain with coin pocket, and on it are a crrazy good James Brand ā€œElkoā€ keychain knife, a thumb drive, and a RovyVon Aurora flashlight (super bright).

Wow. That is some serious top shelf stuff!

For decades, I’ve planned on getting a PP 5196P as a gift to myself once I hit my retirement savings goal. I think I’m about 7 years out still.

I bought the Patek when I was 69, 3 years ago. It took that long to be able to afford it (I sold a Rolex Daytona and some other stuff).
