Firearms collecting hobby makes knife collecting seem downright affordable. Both are fun, though.
Yeah, wait until you realize you could have bought a second or third house with the cash you have spent on a collection. Just remember you just need one more….
This is really a knife where I don’t know if I like or dislike the “second nail nick” groove or whatever that is…
If my wife was an office clerk I’d gift her the lamp though, in German Tippse (from tippen/to type) is a not too nice term for that kind of ink pissers
My couch potato carry today!
Spyderco UKPK
The Fangtooth is not an average slipjoint for sure!

Jumping on the Spyderco compression lock bandwagon today.
I got a Benchmade Bugout and love it. Decided to try a Mini Bugout and it’s just too small, not a fan.
Then I tried the Mini Crooked River since it’s closer to the full-size Bugout but just did not like it in hand.
Just my opinion, of course, but figured someone might like to know.
So if you are considering a Bugout, do it!
Great choice on the Bugout! It’s light, has a great blade shape, very versatile knife with a lot of aftermarket bling options.
Breaking in my new arrival today. As much as I admire the real thing, I can’t bring myself to spend $500+ on it. If I did spend that much, I would never carry it. So here’s second best at around 15% the cost with no qualms about using and carrying it.
Very nice. What is it?
It’s a clone of the Spyderco Slysz Bowie. The genuine article retailed for about $200 a few years ago, but was discontinued due to slow sales. After it was discontinued, the secondary market became ridiculous. Used examples are selling for $450-600, new ones might fetch more than that. As much as I like the aesthetics and ergonomics, I can’t bring myself to spend more than $400 for what’s really a basic knife.
The clone goes for $75.
I blame @chooma for this purchase. Buttery smooth without the second detent and really fun to fidget with.
This is not the Manker E02 II that I expected in the mail today. This is a Sanrenmu 9165. Seems like I mixed up the tracking numbers in my list somehow.
Finally a knife that I can carry without violating the law because it doesn’t lock when opened one-handed. Which is rather difficult due to the spring tension.
