I don't think there's ever been a knife as good looking as the Umnum, it just has something about it. The Mrs said she wants me to pick a knife for our anniversary this year, she wants it to be one that i have to keep forever and never sell it. I've decided to add a Zaan to the pack.

 

Finally removed that pesky lanyard from my Umnumzaan and have my screw and spacer coming today

 

And I have this Bad-Boy coming soon. Fresh off the press, just needs to be buffed out.
Can’t wait to install this scale, it should bring the total weight very close to 4.0 - 4.2oz.
I will post some pics and actual weight. Would be nice if KnifeArt would add a Carbon Fiber Umnumzaan.

 

Whelp, was looking at the CF scale closer and noticed it has the wrong amount of cuts and milled lines are square not radius. So has to be fixed and remade.

 

So the Zaan the mrs has bought me for our anniversary (which will be my first ever Zaan) has arrived and is in the house. The thing is, our anniversary is in 3 weeks. It’s killing me. I even know where it’s hiding.

This thread needs a bump!



Also, @bhyde maybe it’s time to add this thread’s hyperlink to the consolidated pictures sticky?

 

That zaan without the lock bar thing is a beauty. Wish CRK would go back to that.

 

Come Monday I'll finally get to start participating in this thread again. So foolish to sell my Umnum. Live and learn, while I wait for the next mail call.

 

Welcome back to the club. Old or new style pivot?

 

Well it’s anniversary day and the mrs finally let me have my prez. It’s been a long time wanting, but I finally have one. Sneakily ordered a norvox kit to arrive in time with today too, installed just now.

 

New pivot. Which I’m fine with. Nice and easy to service and use.

 

I made this same mistake..

Hopefully pick one up in the near future. It's one of the very few that has been calling me back since selling.

Congrats on fixing your mistake.

 

What a beauty! The knife and the wife.
