Re: Centofante--Authentic?

No idea of the authenticity. If I were in the market for that knife, I would spend the extra $9 and buy new.

Re: Native Chief REX45 Lookout Thread

I'm curious about production dates and overall quality once people get them in hand. There sure was a delay getting these out.

Re: Which fixed blade would you like to see in K390 first?

I have had the street beat in my cart several times, but hasn't happened. K390 would get a follow through from me.

Having personally experienced the process behind iso certification, I have mixed feelings.
Our company just went through the ISO 9001-2015 certification process, so it is still quite fresh in my memory.
What are your thoughts?

Re: Shaman Rex45 Sprint - General Discussion & Support thread - (not alerts)

I've been holding out for the Chief in Rex 45. Picked this up yesterday(I have a problem and I'm weak) and it is a beast and not in a bad way. First time ever handling a Shaman. I'm impressed with this design in just a short time. Very nice for for my xl hands. The steel is something special in my o...

Re: Province users' opinions

Even though I just received mine not too long ago, I'm going to weigh in(not much use). My priorities have been locating my first AR locally. Man, if you think Sprint runs are a challenge, try locating a new AR15 right now. The Province is a thing of beauty. Plain and simple. Received my Boltaron sh...

Province

Received my Province today. My first fixed blade was a gerber mk2, purchased in the late eighties as a teenager. Think I paid around $80.

The Province is a beast for sure and I'm thrilled with it. Came very sharp and dang near perfect. Can't wait to put it to work.

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?

Cut a long leather boot lace to make a pair with my k390 pm2. Then proceeded to back step because I fumbled it. Good news, I still have all of my toes.

Re: What Are the Pros/Cons for Rex and Maxamet?

Rex 45 seems to be less expensive than maxamet, but isn't a regular production steel. Yet, it comes close in performance. Maxamet also appears to be hard to obtain currently, but is regular production. :confused:
