Since I poised thequestion I'll go first. I'm trying to hold myself to one knife per month as this was a New Years resolution, and so far so good. I had a large Classic Sebenza with some lignum vitae wood inserts I was going to get, but then something else popped up and I jumped on it before it got gone.
What I got was a Strider AR with the digicam finish, caller a digicam ghost I believe. I have one AR that I bought a couple years ago and I have done some modifying on it by thinning down the handles, putting larger grooves in the handle, polishing the liners and back of the blade, polishing the blade to where the tiger stripes are barely visible, and most of all putting a foldover clip on it so that when in my pocket all you see is the clip on the outside, yep that's correct.....that tiny clip you see is attached to a big ole' AR!! At any rate I wanted to get another AR that was "stock" with out any mods, although I will redo the clip to get a low ride carry, it will not mess up anything since I'm using the most rearward frame screw hole to place the clip. I know with a lot of folks here, you either like/love Striders or you dislike/hate the knives. My post is no way meant to start a Strider lovefest or hatefest, it is just the knife I have coming for this month, and btw, the Sebenza I ended up skipping over will probably be my Feb. knife.

Also add that I still have this new knife, new flashlight thing going as I have two new lights coming when the AR does. These are the new Olights, and I have a T20Q5, and a T10 Q5 on the way. The difference is in the number of batteries, with the T20 holding 2 X 123CR's, and the T10 holding a single 123CR.

So what's next on your agenda?

One knife per month? Man that would be hard to do. Best of luck :D

Hey allen, I'm planning on a custom shop 110 in the next couple of months. I know you have several and it is your "fault" I'm hyped up on one!

:D
It's the pictures, right?
What can I say....those 110's are just awesome.

I'm also thing stag with finger grooves, nickle silver bolsters, and a BG42 or an ATS-34 blade. What's your opinion on the blade steels?
Click to expand...
I like both steels for sure.
But if I had to choose one over the other, I might choose the ATS-34.
For whatever reason I'm able to get a terrific edge on Buck's ATS-34 easier than I can on their BG-42.
Of course, it might just be me. :o
But have not been disappointed with either steel.

Good luck....and post some pics when you get it.

Cheers,
Allen
 
I'm trying not to buy for awhile as I did so heavily in December.
However the small Mom and Pop hardware stores beckon on occassion.
Problem is, folks know the value of U.S.A. Schrades and most are asking full price.
It's hard to leave the store without buying at least a couple.
