I think I'm going to have to sell a knife to help fund this computer.
I've been wanting to get a Chromebook for awhile now to replace this old Gateway I'm using now. Let me know how you like it when you get it.
u mean like tee eye?? would u prefer someone saying titanium instead?
already have a chrome book, love it. It does NOT have access to IE however, so if u need access to IE only websites, there is a way, but it aint fast
the samsung one, not quite entry level, but all solid state
the 250$ one. i do love it, its tiny, battery is like 10 hours usually. super durable and tough. i use it at work, and im a mechanic.... so it doesnt stay clean
It kinda bugs me too..
It’s kinda like when people say soda... it seems like everyone says soda now, but I was born and raised in Minnesota, and here... we say POP...

Yes!! People that say "pop". What annoys me is when people up here say "soda".Central Western Pa here and we proudly say POP! Especially basement POP!
That's horrible!I'm from California so I grew up saying "soda". My old step dad used to say "soft drink" and that annoyed me to no end. My mom actually started saying it after awhile![]()
Did he let you peek into pandoras box?
*every thing in bold is an update*

And a translucent green FRN (I'm almost 100 percent sure it's FRN, but I'll ask tomorrow) similar to natural G10.

thanks for the pics MR blonde
a folding dog tag knife, the one on display was a custom version, no liking mechanism, just a detent holding it closed and open (couldn't say what materials would be used if this went into production)
The second one down was the one on display.

A burch three collaboration!
http://forthenrycustomknives.com/shop/burchtree-bladeworks-chubby/ it was similar to this, but appeared to be TI with ray skin inlays.
A (Approximately) 10" folder, G10, leaf blade, mid-lock...I'll try and fill in some details tomorrow
A smaller version of the Vallotton, same exact materials and design, but more in the 6-7 inch range.
a manix with a new locking mechanism, it felt similar to a SOG ark lock (and looked similar, but just from looking its obviously a different mechanism altogether) Ok, its not a manix, I asked Eric and its called the "bodacious" lol, there's also a smaller version in the 6-7 inch range and they're in G10 BTW.
there was a knife with a marlin spike (it locks using the ball cage lock, I believe it was using a ceramic ball) along with a 3 inch blade (liner lock IIRC) didn't see if it was serrated or not. over all it was around 4" closed and around 7" with the blade open, it came in G10 and titanium (it could be bead blasted stainless, I'll ask tomorrow)
lastly, there was a jot singh khalsa collaboration, similar to the Khukuri, just no choil, a mid-lock, and the model I saw was in black G10. Pics of the Khukuri, https://www.google.com/search?q=spyderco+barong&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&client=safari
And I got to handle a fluted carbon fiber native (hahahaha) it was beautiful!
I'll try and get the names of all of theses tomorrow:thumbup:
I'll try and answer answer any questions you havedo keep in mind most of these are concept models, that aren't guaranteed to go into production....The day after tomorrow ill make things a little more organized lol...lastly I just wanted to say a thank you to Eric for taking the time to show me all the knives
