Yes, they both use Parker refills.

Todd, those Maguas are looking good. I had my Magua and Yuma as my only knives at deer camp this year. Everyone was admitting them...unfortunately they may have scared all the deer away, too. :)
 
Cool pens Nate, I especially like the one with the sword!

In other news. Starting to get some inventory for blade show. Trying to make orders and put back inventory. Plus, unlike the last two years, I do not plan on closing the shop to new orders, full steam ahead. Turn around times are getting better, I think I might finally be getting a grasp on this shit! Lol.


Dang Todd, it's almost like you knew what you were doin'! :D
 
Looking good daiz!!

Nice pens Nate!!

Beautiful blades Todd!!

Im sure you could sell a couple of pieces off and recoupe the most of your money, id be interested in the 9 if its in good shape and your wanting to move it. I know a couple of other beckerheads that would like to get there paws on that parangatang. Just a thought.

You don't need any of that junk cluttering up your place. But because you're a cool guy I'll throw you a bone and let you send them to me and I'll give you what you wasted on them.

If i go to sell any of them ill let you fellas know first!! As of right now im thinking ill keep them though. All Except the parangatang and the warthog i have owned before... Good blades, and at the price i wont mind beating the snot out of em. Ill be starting to clear my property in about 6 months, so that will really give me some time to play and compare different knives!!

HAHA!! Well i did send him 225 instead of 215... I wanted to make sure after he shipped and insured them he still cleared 200.


Ok so i waited over 2 weeks to get the vinyl in and then they still only sent me half of my order :rolleyes: So now i have to wait longer to get the black "typhon" camo print to try it.... But here is my first practice attempt...

The pattern is so large its hard to get much of it onto a space of only 2"... But i kind of like how it looks. Im thinking if the black is printed the same way.... which im sure it is, the green "may" turn out to look better... Just the contrast of colors is nice to me, since the pattern is so large there would only be a bit of white showing on the typhon vinyl and i think the light green/brown combo may end up looking better in person.

Anyways this was my first go at it, the zippo has a couple small air pockets, and the IM corona lighter has a couple small mistakes as well where i didnt keep it perfectly lined up... So ill be removing these and trying again before long and probably doing the zippo lid to match... First ill probably wait and get the typhon and see how it looks though. That will give me time to see how well it resist scratches and how well it holds.

So, I keep thinking, every damn day that interpreting isn't "for me"... I keep wanting to get back into a kitchen. I don't want to work for "the man" though. I want to open a food truck.
 
All of this is kryptek mandrake... But notice the difference in the sheath, i like the size of the pattern and colors of 710's kydex better.

The vinyl is still pretty sweet i think though. Easier to apply than some of those cell phone screen protectors LMAO
 
Screen protectors are my arch nemesis. I usually buy a 3 pak and the first 2 are for "practice".

HA!

Me and the wife have said thats why they are often sold in packs... Most people dont own 3 of the same cell phone, but it takes that many to get one that turns out half decent.

The heat gun helps with applying this vinyl stuff a little.... But get a little too close, or for a little too long and it completely ruins the wrap.

One other quick trick that I use to use, is only peel back what I'm using at that moment.

Cbear's Hot Dogs on Wheels, Chameleon's Rollin' Churros?

You could go the shady taco truck in a dark alley method, too, but I won't suggest a name for that one. :D

There's a crepes truck in midtown manhattan. Don't waste your talents on hot dogs. Though a full-on brat truck would be pretty cool.
