The wallet and surefire stuff went out to the two dudes who claimed them, on friday, I'll get back to you Mr. X whos screen name I forgot about those scales soon, busy week, midterms and whatnot.

Do you people think there is anything wrong with owning multiple Benchmade griptillians? I have grown to love mine, want to try more! :)
Heck no there's nothing wrong with that, I own two mini's (a 555 and a 556) and I use to have a full size 551 (had it been a 550 I'd still own it too), great knives, will be better once I get around to making a set of G10 scales with stand offs (starting that project in about 2 days!).

The company has always been called HS Produkt, as that is the Croatian company that manufactures the HS2000/XD. IM Metal was the American importer of the pistol back in 1999 and 2000. They didn't sell enough to keep the contract, so Springfield was able to step in and take over the importation -- and relabeled and repriced it.

What kind of price difference between them? I've had a couple of XD's over the last few years and settled on the 4" .40. I don't remember paying a ton of money for it. Maybe just over $300 new which I thought was pretty reasonable. Not sure what they go for now though.

More than that, they have gone up to closer to $600. And that's the standard XD, the XDM is closer to $700.

I live in the great state of MD, no CC for us... I keep a rock island 1911 close by at home but that's where it has to stay

Would love to see some pics of that! I have thought about getting custom grips for one of my 550's for quite a while, but they always seem too pricey for me.

I'll take it if no one else needs it. I will pay forward a kershaw chive. The chive has a little lock rock. Email me at editor@boardmancamera.com to claim.

Edit: Sorry, I'm traveling for a few more days, and I don't have a picture. I will post a pic in a few days.

Hello, I posted early I needed a chive BAD.. Id love it. I just sent you an email as per your request, so don't worry about the pictures. This will be my EDC. I currently have the 0561 as my only EDC and I needed a tiny little guy to go with it!!! WHoo hoo. I have a piece of brown g 10 to match the chive up to my ZT as well and fixing the lock rock will be nothing for me.

Now that I gave away the para cord and loop. I have a multi tool to put up in a few.
I received your emails guys and I will be shipping by Wednesday at the latest. I will email you both asap.

These are Harley licensed products. Exceptional quality leather. Size M.

Both have microfiber inside, but the ones on the right also have foam insulation.

No holes anywhere, no busted seams, but there are some burns. That is what it looks like on the pair on the right. My brother stuck his hand down in the exhaust manifold, I guess. They were his, then they were mine, now they are yours!

PM or email me to claim. I will just give it to the person with the earliest timestamp. If you only claim it here in the thread, I could easily miss your post, so email or PM.

Sure, it's yours. Coldsteel Rocks claimed the Chive, so this works great! PM your shipping info, and get in touch with Coldsteelrocks. When will you be back, should I wait to ship until you're home and can receive it?
 
I'm offering this nib Rough Rider Tiny Toothpick in Smooth White Bone:

e95Af9x.jpg


I bought it to see if I like the pattern. It has a noticeable bend in the blade, but doesn't touch the liners so its 100% functional. This is a low price but high value knife. Stipulations:

1: I would like this to be your first toothpick pattern. I would rather someone who wants to try the pattern claim it than someone who has a collection of toothpicks and wants to add.

2: conus only

3: I am not really concerned with you paying anything forward in this thread. Just be cool about it and really think about the idea of paying it forward in the big picture. Oh and it's fine if you are new.

4: pm or email me and I'll decide who it goes to.

I will be gone from the computer for a bit, so don't worry if I don't reply immediately. I may add in a used Rough Rider small Barlow if you want it and I can find it/can let go of it.

I can't think of anything else. Hope someone wants it!

That is a rather cool looking knife. Not claiming as I do not carry this style of knife. I do like that way that this one looks though. Nice offer :thumbup:
 
So I checked my shipped stuff. Both Opinels were delivered. I don't expect to hear anything from Coachw, as he only had 7 posts in this forum. Did you get yours, MJN?

I was trying to get an XDM .45 for a while, eventually gave up, way to hard to get in CA as its off the roster.... oh well.and im not shelling out $800 or more...

Awesome item, man. I'm glad to see you gettin' in the spirit of the thread. I know someone will nab these up soon!

Let me know too...very interested and would be willing to pay ya of course! No freebies from you my man.
 
5 cryos later and I still can't time it up to get one :p

Before I posted the Cryo I knew there was someone who had been looking for one and missing them. I insist you take this one! You've been generous and not accepted much on these threads. Please accept this Cryo from me and I know C_K would still be happy to make the scale for you!

Send me your address! Thanks bud! You deserve it.
