What knife are you playing with right now?

These little guys are hanging out with me while watching tv. The PM2 has become my favorite ocd flipper (ok, before the knife police jump on me, I know it doesn't have a flipper tang, but flicking the blade open is as much "flipping" the blade as anything). [emoji12]

Although, you probably don't even see the pm2 in the picture, because it's wearing a camo suit. [emoji23]. Trust me, it's there.

Good job. Turned out nice.

Yes my avatar is the new Strat. It's a limited edition American Standard in Mystic Aztec Gold with custom shop Fat 50's pickups.

Here it is playing with my 0452.




 
Currently flipping the Buy Tighe

Just learned how to open and close the Klecker lock with one hand (pocket clip gets in the way though on one side). Also learned how to flip open both blades simultaneously, but now my pinky is bruised from the awkward angle. The pain means its working :emot-yarr:

Yea, I like the pickups a lot. Apparently all the AM STD Strats come with them since 2012.

They do get the job done.
 
Right now I'm nano-stropping this nighthaxan kami until it slices air. I figure I'm about halfway there.

I'm on vacation in Florida, I didn't bring any knives with me so I bought a buck vantage to play with.
 
I have been playing with my two new Condors; Moonshiner and Two Rivers Skinner. I like both knives.

Beautiful Strat - like most folks I have regrets in life but one for sure was selling my 1957 Reissue Seafoam Green Fender Strat many years ago. I currently have a pretty sweet blond Deluxe Tele but it's still not the same.

Also, playing with my ZT 0566 trying to get it to loosen up and flip a bit easier.
 
My 1 1/2 year old boy got his first pocket knife as well. Found it at the flea market with his name on it.
 
Tonight I'm flipping around with my HTM Kirby Lambert Snap. It was a bit rough to begin with, but now it's smoothing out and really growing on me. It needed a full profile sharpening out of the box, but took an amazing edge. Also had pretty extreme lock stick, that has now worked its way out. The action is amazingly smooth, fast with perfect detent, and locks up solid just past 50%.

Getting past the grenade look, it just feels perfect in the hand for an actual user. A bit fat for my EDC preference, but really great ergos. The blade is a bit ZT 350-esq with recurve, but had no problem sharpening on the KME.

But the reason it makes a fun tv watching toy, is the ultra smooth flip, and unique and very audible "snap" upon lock. Very solid knife.
