Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

Here’s my backup, even has a flashlight.

 

Had a local guy build me a new hunting knife last year.

 

Nice

 

Visited a two horse power knife shop in Kentucky a while back.

 

Just ordered a sprint run Shaman s90v and CF, this is gonna be one sweet blade!

 

I wanna see this sickness!

 

I bought it as trade fodder. I think it will be highly sought after once it's all gone. Then I'll put it up for trade towards a CPK fixed blade! lol

 

New to this thread, here's my folder for today! Tried and true

 

I have the PM2 with that coating as well. Second day I had it I went to a party and used it to cut open a beer can to shotgun. Felt like an idiot cuz it looked like it scratched up the coating near the tip pretty bad but after washing the blade and using it for a while it looks fine. It's a pretty hard coating so idont think the blade actually scratched I think the aluminum from the can actually rubbed off onto the blade. But after awhile the coating definitely faded a little bit and scuffed some. Here's what it looks like after using it for like 3 years.

 

Spyderco's DLC is difficult to scratch. What may appear to be scuffs and scratches, you can buff it all away with an oily rag.

 

Okay. The Carothers Field knife is on my list for sure.

Another one that is creeping on me; the Wenger knives guy. I’m an not a tracker guy at all. Dave Wenger makes one I kinda want. But his ESSENTIALS blade looks like the perfect hunting knife. With his flat grind.

 

Nice, I just bought one a few days ago online, should be here in a few days.

 

The new Sebenza 31 is out. Or at least announced. They've got a 50th Lunar Landing Anniversary, two different hardwood inlays, Micarta, and plain finishes. Pricey. $525 on up to $600. The CRK site says maybe 4 months for some. 9 or more for others.

 

I hate they angled the pocket clip like on the Inkosi, I prefer the clip to sit on the lockbar. I do like the ceramic ball interface in a 21 frame though!

 

How do you guys sharpen your knives? I mean really sharp. I suck with the stones and guessing the blade angle, yea I know about using a magic marker and all that. Im starting to look at one of those systems that use the set guide rods. But there not cheap. I do use the crock sticks that are set to an angle but that angle isn’t what works sometimes and I have to use the magic marker method and then compensate.

 

I just sharpen freehand but i hear good things about the spyderco sharpmaker. I bought one for my brother for christmas last year and im 99% sure he never used it. I might "borrow" it from him lol

 

Buy once, cry once. Get a DMT set, the best diamonds there are! I'm still using a set that's over 20 years old....

 

I’m using water stones. Took a long time to get proficient.

Having said that; I have a Lansky diamond system coming today in the mail. Total wild card. My new knife with M390 feels super hard on a water stone. Like I’m making no progress.

 

Are you talking about these?
