Spending a lot of money on a pointless display of wealth is not how you get ahead in this world.

Amen.

I've made some other un-wise decisions regarding expenses over the years, but at least that wasn't one of them.

Mines titanium. Takes snails real nice just like my CRK’s.

I like that, how much is a Ti band?
We went to Sams but they only had ladies stuff at the store. Just forwarded her the link to order my $50 band on-line. Will even get free shipping + 3% back via points

I’m not entirely sure, I think it was around $500-$600. It’s my third wedding band. I recommend getting some rubber ones to wear while at work.

Dang man you should of went to Jared!!!

I hear they make great, good looking, durable rings but that you can't ever resize them. And you don't ever want to be in a position where you have to cut a tungsten ring off your finger.

I guess that last part is true of any ring, but I guess you have to crack/crush them instead of cut them. Just a friendly PSA!

Tungstens good enough right? She seems
To think going to Sams Club for my wedding ring is silly

Cobalt is tuff and pretty scratch resistant. Not real pricey.
If you look at the slight discoloration on my finger right above the ring, you will see remnants of an ages old scar where my finger was nearly ripped off. Those silicone bands for work and hard play are a good thing.

I take it back it was not that expensive wife said $250

Some interesting options. I don't like to wear a ring, but I just remembered that I still have a round rod of Devin Thomas Damascus that could be used to make rings...

^Ohhh that would be sweet!

..

Awesome. Will need to keep the weight off then

I want one of these cause I'm a fantasy nerd, the artistry is epic and they are relatively affordable. Though I would probably never wear it anyway, just like my current one

There's a pointless CPK (breaching tool), coming up soon, for one of Nate's leisurely sales

Wow those are super cool. Glad she already ordered because the orion is calling me name I did twist her arm into taking me to the local knife shop to buy me a wedding knife though.

Have a great night everyone!

Now there is a size comparison. Oh my. The K18 is truly one of, if not the, most epic blade in existence.

I wonder if Samsung execs use their own products/phones (unlike the hilarious photo floating around, of the tool guy assembling a stand/display for one brand of famous tools, using a cordless driver from the competing brand, to assemble the stand ).

Because if execs from Samsung use their own Samsung phones, I'd hope they've fired/replaced whoever was responsible for the autocorrect on my S22 Ultra (and from what I've heard, the S23 Ultra is no improvement).

Stupid autocorrect just tried to correct "my" to "KY". WHY ARE YOU TRYONG TO AUTOCORRECT CORRECTLY SPELLED WORDS? (Oh, hey, it didn't bother autocorrecting "TRYONG" above).

To be fair they all suck. No matter how many times I type “knofe” my phone (iPhone) never changes it to “knife”. This happened often enough that I had to go check if there really was a word “knofe”. There is not.
And then it will take a perfectly legitimate word and change it to some obscure word that doesn’t make sense in context just to eff with me.
Ultimately, I believe that is what’s behind all this. Some programmer messing with folks.
