The Knife Life (Minor Topics and Random Stuff Thread)

Ask and you shall receive, buddy! 3.25 inches of S35VN with a 2 tone stonewash/grinder satin finish.


Swooon... Oh man... I like that! I love that blade finish. That is one ridiculously nice knife for the price. I think I'll be dipping into my fresh tax return $ pretty soon! Thanks for the pic brother!

Anytime! Especially when it comes to enabling my buddies into buying more ZTs haha...
 
Here I was thinking those would be the best and last pics he sent.......:eek:


Natural lighting makes all the difference:thumbup:

Damn nice knives Kris and John. What up Will!!! It's been a while!

Yes indeed! How's it goin Harris? I'm doing alright. Life has been pretty good to me lately. How bout you? Keeping out of trouble?
 
Last pic he took before shipping it out today. Gave me the tracking number and said it would probably be about ten days till the knife got stateside.

I'm pretty excited:)

Tell that to the snobs in the custom subforum:rolleyes:

Started a thread for this knife and absolutely no one commented. Buncha elitists:grumpy:

:D

Well, 2 things... When did you post it? (Maybe it hasn't been long enough) And, maybe the guy is unknown to them. In that case, they tend to hold off until one guy posts, then the floodgates open. Plus, sometimes... Well hell, send me an email. I'm not airing this on a thread.

Email sent bro

I posted it only a couple days ago, so that's probably it. I get the feeling that those dudes are pretty slow, and not to mention a little.....ehhh....... "set in their ways"

Dario doesn't seem to have a huge presence around here, so I can see why they might not know him that well.

But I can't help being a little paranoid that it's because they either don't like the knife, they don't like ME, or they don't like HIM.

I'm sure that's not the case, but still. That place is pretty alien to a young general dweller like me:D

Meh, haters gonna hate, potaters gonna potate. Email replied and I hope it shed some light on that chit.
Aaaaanyway, no matter what anybody says (or doesn't say) that is one gorgeous knife!
 
I'm good Will, just busy and swamped down with school and work.

Kris, they don't owe you a response. Don't worry what anyone thinks or doesn't think. There's better things to do with your time. No offense, just my $0.02

I'm not actually mad, Harris. :D

I was mostly just joking and playing off of the obvious snobby aura surrounding that subforum
 
Welp, just bought a 0450. Finally found them in stock somewhere.

I know I'll love it, but I figure even if I dont, itll sell in under 4 seconds on the exchange.


In other news, the custom is on US soil now, so I'm probably only looking at 3 more days until I get it:thumbup:


Wassup guys? Anything new?
 
I plan on driving up to the store where you ordered your 0450 tomorrow(I caught a glimpse of that thread before it was shut down). It's only an hour away. I came across them while I was looking at the zt dealers in my area, and they just so happen to have 2 more 0452s. They also have a few Xm-3s in stock. I'm not really interested in Hinderers, but I sure would like to handle one to see what the fuss is about.

Cool!

It's great to hear you're going to be visiting a physical shop and getting your hands on the knives. The hinderer I handled at Recon 1 was pretty cool, but nothing to write home about. Flipped like crap, just like they all said it would. Damn solid though. It felt like a tank and made my earlier ZTs feel like toys in comparison. The truth is they really aren't great substitutes for the real deal. If you want a hinderer, buy a hinderer.

Anyway, I can't wait till my 0450 shows up. Should be SAWEEEET:thumbup:
 
Well son of a gun! Looks like I should have went up there yesterday. They had 2 in stock, but it looks like they sold them both since then.
 
Hey if you're there Harris, I've got a quick question for ya.

Does the 21 have a ceramic ball detent? Or is that just the 25?
