Hey guys,
Well, its been a while that I've been on for more than 5 mintues, and I think its about time I let you all know what I've been up to.
In the last two months I have been training with the city, and surrounding communities. I've joined not only a section of the forces in this northern section of canada, but im also doing search and rescue for an area of a little over 350 square Km. I've been traveling, going to all sorts of places, met alot of new people and have been happier than ever, my girl friend was offered a new job, and the both of us have been having the time of our young lives.
I have been doing various searches in the are as well and though it has been one of the harder spots of my life at the same time, I feel a great sense of fulfillment for sure.
So, enough of that, lets get on to some of the gear I've been picking up on reservists pay I might add.
First up though, I would like to let you all know how a few bits of my gear have been holding up the last few months.
The RC6 that I bought from KGD a few months ago has been an absolute dream to use, I have done a little work to it though to dress it up, took the edge thickness down and made it a little fancier looking.
The edge of the thing works great now, its been a solid user on a few searches as well as various recce missions.
And the sheath is still in tact.
I have been very pleased with this knife, RAT has made a very solid knife and if it means anything, a SAR tech and military personal recommends it.:thumbup:
Next up would have to be the lunada. I got this from Bushman5 a few months ago as well, it has seen use day in and out every day for the last 2+ months and I am very pleased with it. There are some minor scuff's you could say, but over all has held up above what I expected it to.
Here is some wear on the under side of the strap, I can see in a year or so this wearing out.
It has been the best EDC I have used to date, I done the whole camera case thing, and every thing between this and those, but so far this has been the best.
I have to run for a little bit guys, but later tonight I will get up some more pictures of the LBV and the other new toys I have.
