Have a few I need to get rid of if anyone is interested. The wife has concluded that the amount of incoming knives has overcome the amount of outgoing. LOL
I won’t be asking anything close to new prices. PM for details if you want one or all. I’d trade them all for a Mecarmy PS14 in like new condition.

Dam , that is terrible walking naked everywhere. :cry:
Will anyone ship by mail blades to the Nanny state ?
No weapons of any kind ?
I suppose there is zero crime there as a result. :person_facepalming:

Dammit. Did you have to remember me that I still have to finish the Tartan-Micarta scales for my Urban Trapper?!?
Too many other projects but I’ll finish them this month, or year, I promise
Today I got the upgrade for my beloved Ruike S11, which I carried for over a year on my keychain. Or two years? Anyway, it’s a fantastic little knife, but in EDC I often need more. So here’s the upgrade:
Looks almost the same, feels almost the same. Sanrenmu WA 622, OEM of Ruike (and Böker Tech Tool) knives. Got the S11 for $25 locally back then and the WA 622 for only $18!
The scissors are not the greatest, but they work. Glad I got it - this model is discontinued and seems to be sold out now in almost all stores.
I’ve tossed the idea around but I haven’t pulled the trigger. Maybe it’s time to try one.
Sanrenmu makes or has made a lot of this kind of tool. I still see a few self-branded models on their AliExpress store in addition to over a dozen models for Ruike. I don’t recall what steel Victorinox uses on their Swiss Army Knives but would I be right in guessing that Sanrenmu’s 12C27 is better?
Just do it! It doesn’t cost much and is worth every cent.
Most of the small S1x / WA 6xx seem to be gone, some black still available (sold as “Mack Walker”). I would have preferred a brown or even orange one, but they’re gone forever. Not sure about the steel, but it should be better than Victorinox. It’s a knife for light tasks and for that it’s more than enough.
I discovered some wicked looking carbon fiber choices so I made scales for two of my most recent EDC knives.
The Medford Praetorian Genesis T is now a C with Fat Carbon Dark Matter Gold on the presentation side. The ZT 0393 has a full slab of Carbon Fiber on the presentation side and an overlay on the lock side.
Although those are not my type of knives, the work you have done on them looks superb, Dale!
Today, and for weeks now I’m back to carrying the mini bugout. It has unfortunately not the class and elegance that I like and that other knives do have, but it is simply the most functional EDC knife that I know of (not the least because it is usable for lefties like me), an extremely well thought-out knife.
