The Bears' Den--Shirogorov Showcase

Thanks Both.

And a blue sticker on a pivot? Does it mean that knife is '3 bears***' ?

Such stickers were common on new serial-run Shiro pivots coming out of the Workshop, perhaps as a badge of newness. They pre-dated the one-, two-, and three-Bear categories, which Shirogorov no longer uses. I haven't seen a new Shiro with a pivot sticker for some time, but then I haven't bought a new Shiro in some time either.

I picked up a brand new neon zero from Ukraine not long ago. Pretty sure it had a sticker on it. I could check the box (I keep them when they have them) but it’s buried in a box in a closet lol

Picked up an F3 recently in Elmax/G10. Nothing fancy but i do really like the ergos on this model. Coincidentally this is my first Shiro on bearings as well.

I picked this one up a few weeks ago. Best liner lock knife I’ve owned.
Although I carry the neon r20 for edc, this one seems like a great choice for outdoors/harder tasks due to the ergos... the ergos are amazing.

Size comparison=neon,doctor death, brown 95, blue 95, 110,111.
The doctor is now broken in and opens and closes great! Need to start on the 110 now.

So I need some advice. I'm trying to acquire a Quantum pivot screw and an F3NS body screw. I contacted Tom at Shiro and he's been taking a LONG time to respond. Sako at Recon1 is fantastic but they don't stock any screws and they can only send the knives back to Russia. Josh at Razor Edge Knives has been instructed by shiro to not sell any more shiro screws, he's only to sell the stock he has right now.

What should I do? At this price point, you'd figure making sure your customers are happy by having the process of acquiring any extra parts be easy, but it's been frustrating.

That CD is beautiful! How do you find it compared to the Quantum?

Besides the obvious more intricate milling, the fit and finish is just as good as the quantum. I would say the quality is exactly the same which is nice to see on a regular production Shiro. At one point I had a ME frag F95 and it did not have nearly the same f&f as these.
