black or silver? I like the silver, probably hide wear better, but is black more limited? did they ever make a damascus leek before? or do I want a shallot?

Yay, got the evilbay stuff shipped today. My RDSW Skyline also arrived in California today, so I think I'll be able to ship that Monday, and Mark is shipping out the Chill I won.

Yes, the one I totally forgot about until now. All I'm waiting for is WILL to give me his address..........again.
Congrats Steb. What's the serial number?
Guys there was a stunt driver at the motorcycle show. It was freaking cool. I videotaped him, and will post the videos tomorrow morning after it uploads. Just thought I'd let you know.

I almost forgot to tell you guys, I had my first knife related dream last-night. It wasn't a good one though. It started with my Cryo, it had rust all over it and I couldn't figure out how to get it off and I went into a panic and that's when I woke up.
 
Well, this is one of my hauls this week. Unrelated to knives I know :). In case anyone wants a little more info. These are done my a guy named Earnest Kaiser. He makes these yoyo's using aerospace engineering and he has like 19 years of CNC experience. The bearing inside it is an AIGR bearing that is used in air craft. Pretty cool.

Get a black leek and a black shallot. They look better than the bead blast in person in my opinion

Haha, I will try and do a video down the road soon of some stuff I have made up. Yoyo's are crazy in the tech world. I think some of them have really shown what CNC is capable of. Especially when they can create a yoyo with zero vibe. Ernie makes his tolerance so high, that the bearing in this yoyo may be so tight on the bearing seat I can barely get it off.

That would mean the tolerances are low, or rather, "tight".

I suppose I should rephrase. It would be tough to get off. However any way you cut it. Tolerances are high. I will have to upload a video showing how smoothly, and vibeless these spin. Which is not easy to match two separate halves with zero vibe.

No, tolerances are low. High tolerances means that there's a high level of allowable error, so the consistency and fit are all over the place. Low tolerance, zero tolerance, tight tolerance, etc.

Come on man! Step yo game up! :p Don't make me super glue someone up in this piece!
