heres an old pic of a few of mine, i sold off the emerson cause i didnt like the way the handle felt. looking at this old pic made me wonder why i didnt include any of my spyderco chinooks at the time, i think its because the chinook was actually a bowie knife and not a persian.

Hmm....I think I recognize that 860! I just pulled the trigger on another one BTW!

Remind me again of what Kizer that is? I might have to make that my first of that brand.

I'm very happy you sold it to me, Ed! Glad you found a replacement.

This is the Kizer Nomad. Great knife (my first Kizer). Not a huge fan of the pocket clip, but apparently they are changing it with the next run.

Well I wish I hadn't! I must have needed the money for another knife. Glad it went to you and I hope you are enjoying it.

I looked at the clip on bladHQ and it does sort of look just thrown on there. Not a huge fan of a milled clip but it would fit that knife better if done right. I'll keep my eyes open.

Beautiful blades. I'm currently lusting after a Kizer Nomad by Dirk Pinkerton. Great example of a Persian blade.

Hey IM!
I freaked when I saw the Kizer Nomad by D Pinkerton! Fell in love and HAD to have one.
It is a great flipper, detent a tic on the light side. Locks up beautifully. Amazing machining on the handles. Super smooth and very sweet in hand. Great build on a seriously cool design by DP!
He is a member here and thanked me for a positive review of his design. Cool dude!
The only little nit pic I can see is to un lock is a bit touchy. The release is even with the opposite scale. Same complaint about Spydie's Gayle Bradley.
I give it a 9 - 10.

Pics, just because why the hell not!!

That is good to hear. I've gotten interested in this one, don't like the clip (it looks just God-awful, if you ask me) and don't have funds for it now anyway, so waiting for Clip v.2 works great for me.
 
I was asked if the knife I posted was one of my own designs. No, that was one of Joe's designs.
