OTF (Out The Front) knives...the good the bad, and the ugly.

Imgur is a good image hosting site. I didn't know that it was at max capacity.

I sometimes use Imgur. I log in and upload and ignore other people's images.

You can use many other image hosting sites.

I usually use abload.de, but that site is in German so it's not the most user friendly to people that don't know German.

So BLF wants us to ignore politics on one site they partner with, but have a zero tolerance policy on their own site. Hmm

[ScottRay]

Anyways ....would love to upload some pics. Maybe since imgur is full they will start using nother image hosting site.

[Hoop]

There is no BLF “group.” This forum has only one admin, and it isn’t Dr. raccoon. It doesn’t partner with imgur or other sites.

Yes imgur is another propaganda cesspool like almost every site on the internet.

[kennybobby]

i just uploaded some images last night and there was no warning message about lack of server space or being full.

Were you able to register for an account?

Anybody can join imgur and upload any picture they want. So that can seem like the wild west if you have time to waste and look at the worthless images on the home page. Once you have an account you never have to see that again unless you want to. (log in, go to my account, see only my images)

But this flashlight forum is a peaceful and fun place (typical of polite Canadians in my experience). If you can’t handle the rules and norms, then maybe this site is not for you. No need to bich and moan about it, cause it’s not gonna change.

I'm a doctor now? Sweet!

Imgur isn't full, I just uploaded a few images today. My guess if that you may be using their Android or iOS app, which is trash and works maybe 50% of the time.

As long as you are just uploading your own stuff, there is no reason to browse their site and run into their "politics".

BLF doesn’t partner with Imgur or anyone else. Imgur is nothing more than a image hosting site. There are two sections. Public and Private. You link images you upload to your private acct here on BLF. Has absolutely nothing to do with politics.

Imgur site is not “Full”. It works fine. I use it almost daily to upload & link images to a few forums I use

Bought a couple of the MT Boba Fett clones, then a real UTX 85 as atonement. My EDC is the Boba Fett, a good thwaack every time. The real one is just for looking at.

I also have a boba fett clone and its the worst knife ever, the blade is impossible to sharpen and was super dull on arrival. The action was impossible to deploy because its too hard even with two hands and the button with sharp edges will tear the skin of your thumb, had to lengthen the spring to make it usable. Oh and I also add to pay taxes, twice because the blade came in a separate package…

The glass ‘’breaking’’ tip is only a steel ball. Good luck breaking glass with that in a emergency.

Also if a cop find this garbage on you, you are in big trouble…

I hate OTFs. They are only toys for adults.

@kennybobby

So i had a couple of cheap OTF years ago, they were selling at a gun show, camo colored, etc.

i don’t know if they were fakes or if all OTF do this, but you could click the switch while holding it against your palm and it wouldn’t cut thru your skin.

From my personal experience: Microtech OTFs, at least larger models like Cypher and Makora II, will definitely pierce through your palm skin.

Never owned any sub-4” models so can’t really tell if smaller ones will do the same.

You’re just trolling because you got your knuckles rapped early on. Start a “How do I Post Pics?” thread somewhere. Or use Postimage, or Flickr, or Photobucket, but stop whining. If you don’t like the place, y’know?

Autos are totally illegal here in the UK, so obviously as a knife aficionado I have a healthy interest in forbidden fruit. I’ve owned a few stilletto type cheap ones picked upon French exchange trips during the 80’s, and had the pleasure of one of Matt Diskins Volcan Dual actions. The only OTFs I’ve handled were on a trip to Amsterdam many years ago. Fascinating fidget toys, but no practical use apart from inflicting bodily harm. Reckon we’re all fed up with that now eh?

Matt’s Dual Action here. There’s a vid.

Whaoh. Well if I could upload a pic, I would show yall the screenshot of imgurs error message saying its not taking new accounts because it's reached capacity. I'm assuming since you're already on an active imgur account that it doesn't affect you. No need to get hostile...

Apologies. I use Postimage since it doesn’t require an account and losing all my Photobucket pics when they held everyone to ransom and whole forums of information were lost.

@ScottRay

Wow. Little too strict. Nobody is trying to talk politics. Maybe yall are a little too uptight for me here. I was loving it here til this.

If you stand in the way… of them and their enslavement, that’s the only time you’ll see them get angry. They are a mob. And they want to be slaves. And if you stand in the middle, they’ll kill you. They are siding with their masters. They will not side with someone who wants to free them. They are getting what they desperately crave. They want to be dominated. And they are weaponized against the likes of you.

My cheap Lighting otf almost sliced me pretty good once doing that. The blade easily punctures paper on deployment and puts a good dent in wood.

LOL, ok buddy.

[jasontheguitarist]

Racoon, If you don’t know about Kershawguy.com check it out. The launch 4 is $76 or so. Free shipping at 95, so buy a cheap Kershaw as filler, because why not?

[raccoon]

I ordered my Launch 4 used for $45.

I should receive it maybe on Friday, but I probably won't post about it in this thread (in the future) because the knife is not OTF.
