Good luck bro! I have always wanted a XM-24, but id never pay secondary market price for one. They are a built as a 400-500 dollar knife, not a 800-1000 dollar knife.
Thats all im going to indulge on that subject though lol

Well looks like it's going down! Can't believe I'm actually going to own a Hinderer. Really it's only costing me two knives and $100. Not to bad IMO.

I have this weird addiction of wanting to drive right now ever since I drove at driver's training. I don't get to drive until the 19th.

Knotty a little advise... Take driving very seriously. Ive had friends who have made some poor choices driving and have lost their licenses for up to 10 years. Down the road you might want a job that involves driving and a company wont hire you if you have a blemish on your record.

Yeah, I understand. I know a guy that lost his license for life because of drinking and driving.

Congrats bro! *cough cough* pass around *cough cough*
Nice Iceman! I am jealous. My only good news is that I did indeed get on Tom Krein's Alpha folder list just before he closed it again. I think, think, the wait time is only around 4-6 months right now.
That's rad dude. What steel is it going to be in?
Listen to the bug, Knotty:thumbup: My old friend Nathan got careless going down a mountain road when it had just rained while my brother and I were in the car. He took a turn too fast and the car just slid into the other lane and crashed into the guard rail, totaling his car completely. If that guard rail wasn't there I probably wouldn't be alive right now because there was a cliff waiting on the other side. Guard rails are awesome
Not trying to scare you or anything but it only takes one screw up to potentially ruin your life or worse.
Why don't you ask your mom or dad to let you drive around our neighborhood a little bit for practice?

Oh jeez! Have you ever tried 3v before? If not, I would go with that. I remember seeing one of his alphas (I think it was an alpha) with a smooth CF that looked spectacular.

Yah that Fixed blade that I got from him recently is in 3V. He ran it at a higher hardness so that it has pretty solid wear resistance. I really like it.

You guys aren't scaring me. I understand you're trying to help. I'm not going to fall into the "Oh, that won't happen to me" group. It is kind of frightening to see all of the people in my class kind of shrug there shoulders at the instructors. I'm not a teacher's pet, but I listen and pay attention.
I've driven with my Grandpa a couple times around his neighborhood and one time in the snow. I don't wanna risk it with my mom or dad because the instructors said if they see us driving around, they'll fail us and our parents will be out $325. Overall, I think I'm a pretty good driver, for not being as experienced as others. I haven't hit a cone going forward, although it's easier going forwards than backwards. I've hit 2 while backing up, which I'll take. It doesn't help being short either
.Doesn't sound like it. My mom has already set boundaries on when and where I can/can't drive. She's not over-protective, but likes to know where I'm at. She's cool.

This is whats so !^@%*#$ wrong with the world today. How the hell esle are you supposed to learn? Thats like trying to learn an instrument after you leased it from the school you paid to go to, to learn how to properly, and them saying don't practice it at home or your out the money you paid us and the rental fee, and we'll put it on your permanent record and call every school you try to get into and tell them not to accept your application.
I mean honestly If it were my child and they tried to fail my kid, I would knock their teeth down their throat, tell them what they can do and where they can do it and tell them if I EVER seen or heard of them again they would regret it.
The world is full of idiots that think they have to police evrything, and we wonder why kids aren't free thinkers or hard workers and expect everything to be handed to them. The next thing you know you won't be able to take a piss without filling out a form and leaving a deposit. I think I'll do what I want, where I want, how I want, as long as I'm not hurting anyone or vehemently breaking the law.
Rant over*
