Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

Highly/Strongly Recommend


I have 6-7 Advansite Knives (I have posted a few) and his work is solid on each and every one. Really Nice - The one you quoted is a Bloodwood Handle!

A couple recent additions:

New (to me) Bugout 535-GRY with Rockscale Ti scales. It is unbelievable how lightweight this knife is! The titanium scales definitely make it feel more "solid" but ultra-light.

Swapped a black thumbstud on there (instead of the brass/bronze looking one) and ordered a black alum. backspacer for it.


Also picked up a Chaves Ultramar Redencion (Drop point, s35vn, black PVD, black micarta inlay). I've been eyeing them for awhile, and I love skulls, so Ramon's pocket clips have always caught my attention. Never gonna pony up the funds for a full custom (228) and I got the Ultramar for a great deal.

Initial impressions??? Its a BADASS overbuilt folder, with awesome machining and attention to detail. I was concerned it would be too "overbuilt" and not practical for daily use (like a Medford), but the blade is actually a good thickness and has a very usable grind geometry. Aggressive jimping, solid lockup and detent, and feels great in hand. I would consider it on the same level as any of the Hinderer ZTs that I own (0560, 0562, 0566 etc.) in terms of design and durability.

It is probably one of the coolest (looking) blades I own, and I'm very pleased with it overall. I might replace all the shiny silver hardware with black stuff, 'cause that's just how I am

 

Lets see them. Post some pictures!

 

I had posted them from the wrong folder. Should show up now

 

That bugout is sick! Love those scales on it.

 

Today's carry. Chris Reeve Knives Carbon Fiber Small Inkosi and Cypress Creek Knives Fife

 

How you been liking it? I've been on the fence about getting a puukko for a long time

 

So far so good. i just received this as a christmas gift so I have not “put it to the test” yet. I will say it is extremely comfortable in hand and seems to have zero hot spots.

 

My camping carry...

 

Bushcrafter 162

 

One of the best handling knives I have owned. Picked up the smaller one too.

 

Which one?

 

Just a reminder that Blade Show 2019 is coming up in about a month...June 7-9, at The Cobb Galleria in Atlanta, GA. Hope to see some of you there.

 

I will be there.
@cubie Let me know when you got some time and we will meet up at the BS.

 

I'm at table 9-O ABS section, stop by and say hi if you get a chance.

 

Will do brotha! Maybe you can pick you up another CPK!

 

I most certainly will.

 

Will do. Thanks for the invite
