I'm very happy with my PJ, I just like diversity and all the ones I've seen with inlays are just beautiful knives.

I think the ones with bone inlay are stunning, but the carbon fiber was only a couple of weeks out. I guess if I really like the bone I guess I’ll have to get in line.🤔😉

Nice! I wonder if mine might come early or if it’s still coming at the end of March.

I noticed on another thread your knife was delivered. Would love to know your thoughts.

It's pretty nice - I really like it. It's good in the hand and less chunky than my Hinderer XM-18s, and flicks out better than some of them as well. It's kind of like a cross between a plain jane CRK and a Hinderer.

Got my iMamba (flipper / bearing) the other day, thought I was getting a knife similar to a 'medium' Chris Reeves, but what I got is totally different :thumbsup:

AB have their own personality for sure, great feeling, great fit in my hand.

This will be my first go with AWL34 and I'm sure I won't be able to tell the difference between S30 or S45vn or 154 or MC or whatever else. I do have some Maxamet and that is in a different realm.

Very nice! My PJ iMamba was my first experience with that steel as well. Seems to hold a nice edge and is pretty easy to sharpen in my experience.
Enjoy!

I had a couple pics to spare today, so I figure I might as well plop 'em down here.

Anybody get rid of the polished blade?

Apparently I have greasy fingers and I can't keep the darn thing presentable, I am thinking of getting some kind of satin finish but was hoping for some feedback first.

Thanks!
