Re: 2018 Forum Calendar Contest!
I almost forgot about this contest again, missed the last couple years. Chose the FB17P Hossom Forager which I've kept in my truck for years but barely used. The Forager feels great in hand, both grip wise and weight. Caught tonight's sunset outside after work so snapped a few picts. Kev. Forager_Sm...

Hey Paddy B, Too bad about the first knife you got. Hope the replacement you ordered is a good one. Been carrying my GB for a while now and seems like a pretty tough knife. The CF doesn't seem too easy to scratch, only a couple of small chips where it sticks out of the pocket. Hope you like the knif...

Hey excptnl, You didn't mention what range you were looking for the three stones. But I might go with other. I have a set of DMT's that I could not get used to the feel since I started with King stones years ago. I agree with Jack about breaking them in. I jumped in with a knife and got a few nice d...

Hey Buzzanr, Everyone's gotta start from somewhere. I have to agree with the advice of the other guys. I think you can learn technique and patience using what you have, but as JD Spydo said there are alot better equipment out there. Holding a consistent angle is the key in getting a good edge bevel,...

Hey JD Spydo, Not sure how hard Carbon V is but if it is like TedP mentioned that is like 1095, I use a metal file. Takes the metal off pretty quick. Leaves the edge with a nice bite. Like I said, if the steel is too hard you probably won't do much damage since the file would just slide over the edg...

Hey Tony, I'll just put a quick 2 cents in since there seems to be a few people on here that know a lot more about cameras than I do, judging by some of the pictures posted. I agree with Donut, it would depend on where you would be shooting. If are trying to get shots indoors or where you have low l...

Thanks to the :spyder: Crew for doing a calender again this year. I decided to shoot the Salt-1 which is my beater edc since here in Hawaii we are often close to the ocean and have decent humidity. I decided to give it a ffg which I did by hand on some waterstones. The photo was taken down at Anaeho...

I voted other. I have a ladybug, photon light and truck key on a ring. Although it is true that I will have the ladybug even if I forget my edc since it is attached to my truck key and I usually can't leave home with out my truck, its just there as a small non-menacing looking knife I can cut stuff ...
