your most recent purchase

On April 17th I ordered a black PE Spyderco Delica4 and a new yellow-handled Ladybug3 with H1 steel (to go with my Salt1). I also ordered my first RAT, the RC-6 from Derrick at KnivesShipFree.com on the 16th.
I'm still waiting for both orders to arrive but I got my new Fenix PD20 flashlight in the mail from 4Sevens yesterday so that's holding me over til the other new toys arrive.

So, I got my RC-6 today and like it so much I just ordered the RAT Izula and RC-4 (both black) from KSF.
I also ordered a Spyderco Sharpmaker, 2 titanium Sporks, a dozen of the McGizmo stainless Steel 25mm clips and some various lanyard clips from Lighthound on Friday. I risked ordering from DealExtreme again and ordered some GID tailcaps for my various Fenix lights, some 2016 button batteries for my Photons, AA and CR123 battery cases, rare earth magnets and a jet lighter. I'm also still waiting for the two Spydercos purchased off evilBay.
 
I, yet again, bought another knife at 1SKS. Today it was a BM Presidio 5000 auto. My first axis auto. The thing is built like a tank.
 
Today 4/22/09:
Reeves Nessmuk Style Double Bit Axe:

Not bad for being out of work for four months...:eek:

That axe is beautiful, it's a work of art. :thumbup: Do you use it?

Did not see this thread. Posted this on the Becker forum, my last knife purchase came a few weeks ago when I came home from picking up a couple of guns for the wife to find the mailman left presents. My BK2, BK7, BK9, BK11 and the Edge-Pro, Pro2 Kit for me. Felt like Christmas in April. Now I will have a BK2 to dress up for EDC. Here is a couple of quickie pics.

Kershaw Outcast included for scale, BK9, BK7, BK2, BK2 (old), and BK11. The second BK2 is my first one and has seen some heavy use as described in my BK2 review. Not nearly as new as it looks. The guns well thats another forum but the Stoeger 9mm is the steal of the century. The Edge Pro 2 Kits is a bonafide professional sharpener it may very well be the Becker of knife sharpeners. Just had a chance to do my Kershaw Outlaw folder, my wifes folder and the older BK2 but in just a few strokes this thing puts a polished razor edge on. The real test is was I did the D2 steel on the Outcast. These Beckers are serious working blades I am looking forward to taking each of them through their paces. That first BK2 trimmed branches as well as the much larger Outcast. I really liked how it sliced through branches 3 quarter inch thick with never more than one stroke.
 
I should have these in a week or so...

I picked up a Case Sod-Buster, Jr. at Lowes the other day (my first Case!) and ordered some stuff from NGK when I got home. Pretty soon I'll have a KA-BAR USMC plain edge, Buck Hartsook, Gerber Artifact (not really a knife, I guess, but still cool) and a Rough Rider toothpick.
 
Bought a BM Skirmish over the weekend, I got a fair deal on it and wanted one for a while, I'm heading down to the Louisville area later this week so I am going to treat myself to a birthday present from 1SKS. I'm not sure what to pick up.....:confused:
Thanks to Shawn B for putting me in touch with Spark !
and thanks to Spark for being so helpful!

I have not used as of yet, but it will be used. I was going to use it after a storm took down some trees in the back yard this weekend. But as usual the Battle Mistress seemed to eat up the chainsaws lite work. :D

Baba- hopefully you didn't have any damage-
We got lucky here, no trees down on my property, the neighbor not so much, we watched a 70ft pine get blown in half. It was pretty impressive to see wind take out a tree that size.
 
Here is the Rick Hinderer Flashpoint that I got last Friday.

I am expecting a Strider PTCC on Thursday.
That will be it for a while as I have spent way to much money lately.

BM 707 sequel and 2 of the new vg10 spyderco ladybugs.

The latter is what will actually be used

A question and a comment. the Question is what is the background you are using in the second pic? it looks cool. and it is Ruger not Rugar.;)
 
New guy here, first post on the forum. Just wanted to share my purchase from yesterday:

ZT 0400 Plain Edge and Kershaw Folding Field 1050. I lost my good old slipjoint that I edc'd for 5 years on a camping trip during this beautiful Canadian weekend :(:mad:. Guilt-ridden, I go to my local knife store for a small back lock folder and... well you know:o. I'm not sure how I ended up with these two monstrous sized folders, but suffice to say, I'm one happy knife knut right now. I cannot praise the quality of Kershaw enough. Solid liner and back locks, zero blade play, and comes out of the box razor sharp. Can't get any better than that. Cheers :D

Congrats on your ZT and Kershaw score.:) Sorry about your loss though.:( Oh yeah, Welcome to Blade Forums!:D:thumbup:
 
The last knife I brought in was a Spyderco ATR Ti. Very nice!! One of the smoothest actions I have ever felt, including the Sebenza. :eek:

I think next up will be one of the Busse SAR4's. :thumbup:
 
A 21" HI Gelbu Special, before that it was another SwampRat HRLM.:D No pics.:grumpy:
