That is so mean looking! It scares me a little bit I'm not going to lie. But I still want it.
 
That is a great combo, nice 2 tone look with the blade and scale. Looks like the pivot screw has the coating in the slot, if it does it's a nice touch and attention to detail :thumbup:
 
Damn sexy. And while black DLC is very nice looking I find things FDE better "hide" in most lit environments and are less noticeable clipped onto/into pockets. Bronze Ano. "hides" well too.


I really like this XM!
 
^ is that yours Rubi!!!??? You lucky dog! I am in love with that knife. Perfect combo of badass components.
 
It's becoming very evident that to be one of the "cool kids" you gotta get some DLC on your XM.

Problem I find is that it's super difficult to decide what I like best...Spanto/Slicer/Wharnie and Black / FDE.

In a perfect scenario good fortune would provide me with all 6. Nice to dream.

I hear ya.

I need to stop the nonsense and just get the items I really "want". It's almost unimaginable that I still do not own a custom XM.

But, I put too many self-restrictions on the darn thing. I really had hope to pick one up in a lottery so all could see the emotion/elation play out in a natural way...I have no regrets, am grateful for what I have and look forward to what the future brings.
