What kind of folder do you carry?

Throwback Thursday... just got this Imperial "Mystery Knife" last week as a surprise gift, super stoked to have a very clean original version in the collection! 😁

Beautiful Adamas, what a tank of a knife!

You should feel the “thwack” of the autos, it fires with authority, really lets you know what you have in hand!

Gosh are they heavy though, no wonder they come with a belt sheath 😎🍻👍

I wear cargo shorts a lot on weekends working in the yard or on the farm. And today I didn’t wear my belt. I could sure tell it with the Adamas in the pocket, kept having to pull them up.

It wont get carried much as it going to be a permanent addition to my “GO” bag.

I would feel okay if I got stranded with that as my only knife on me.

Love Cruwear also.

Yes would love to find an auto for a good price to try. I’ve watched videos of the Thwak and it caught my attention:)

Did you add the Adams as one of your 7 folders?
🤣🤣🤣 That number has now gone to 10 folders and I’ve yet to start selling the others…

But yeah, this Adamas is one of those ten. Why because sometimes it’s nice to have an overbuilt stout folder.

I’m going to post my ten for a topic and have you guys critique them soon.

Flipper Friday... checking out the "Yuuki" from Latama Cutlery , a titanium slab buttonlock flipper with a compound ground 20CV blade for $200 is a pretty insane value!🤯

What's your opinion of that? Can you flip it open with your index finger instead of using your thumb in the hole? I have a cheezy cheap Kershaw that is so easy to flip open with my index finger. I don't much care for the liner lock on it. Otherwise, that little Kershaw is my package opener because it's so easy and fast to open.

It seems like a great knife for the price, I went into all that in the video.
 
How do you find the inlay vs your PJ version?

The inlay is nicer looking aesthetically but otherwise I cant tell a difference in hand and would be happy with either.

Only reason for now that I have both is because the plain one is a model 25 which is a precursor to the Inkosi.

I did however just buy a Inkosi with inlay so the plain 25 may go on sale.

I mean since I am trying to whittle my collection down. Had to raise that number to 10 from 7 since keeping 3 CRK’s. I will be keeping the 31, the Inkosi and the Umnumzaan for sure. I feel the 3 CRK knife models are probably the best out there in terms of quality and cost. Talking large models, small ones are too little for my fat fingers.

If someone just wanted 1 quality knife they couldn’t go wrong with any of the CRK knives.
