... is waiting for a new one to come in!

Just ordered a new knife- a Mini Grip- and now I have to wait until it gets here. How am I supposed to handle the waiting? I've got to keep my hands busy until then :grumpy:

Anybody else hate waiting :D
 
Yep... I know how you feel man. Being patient does pay off though. I'm waiting on a Sebenza, Tilt, Zt 0560, and a gayle bradley lol.

Yeah waiting is the worst part... I like to read reviews and see pictures and watch youtube videos.

Since it is a minigrip, here is some pictures for you

I hear you. I love looking at the goodies from Shot and Blade, but then I have to wait for the companies to get the darn things to market! There's a Spyderco Laci Szabo folder with my name on it, and they haven't even made it yet!
 
...the addiction! And yes, waiting freaking sucks. I JUST got a SwampRat RMD from a fellow forum brother and I ran out to greet the Fed Ex before he got to my door.
 
I'm still waiting to get my ZT 0350 back from KAI's warranty department. Again.
 
I’m waiting for Spyderco to release the folding Pukko. So it’s waiting for production, shipping, the dealer to get them.... Arggghhh I went out 2 days ago and bought a CRK Pro Soldier though to curb my hunger. :D
 
I like it because it builds up the suspense... sometimes i will just sit with my knife still in the un-opeded shipping box because i love opening getting new mail
 
Hardest part for me is waiting for my blades to come back from heat treat. As for knives not made by me, I have an Emerson Super Raven B and both Ontario/Hossom Retribution folders sitting in Reese Weiland's shop for mods... for the last 3 years.
 
Yeah, love that feeling when I check my PO box and see that yellow slip that shows I got a package waiting. Sucks when it turns out to be something my wife ordered lol...
 
Been waiting a long time to get my hands on a ZT 0560 and finally was able to find one and ordered it today, so now the waiting begins. Fortunately, I have a Military that just came in today, as well, so the waiting won't be too bad this time.
 
At least you have yours on order. The only knife I want to buy right now doesn't even have an official release date yet.
 
I always buy knives from the shops. I just don't have the patience for my knife to arrive :D
on the subject of BM grip, just bought The 551s
 
Is thinking you are done buying for a while and you see something you just have to have over in the For Sale forum.
 
What's worse is waiting for a knife to get here, playing with it for a couple days, and then sending it back out to wait for a maker to put a decent edge on it. The wait...continues. Sigh. Scrapper 711 if you're wondering.
