i got one but have not used it because i have had problems with the liner lock. this really should have been a frame lock, but i'm assuming that would have cost a great deal more. i do not like the liner-less lock design. when mine arrived, i inspected it and the lock face had wear marks that looked...

right now in my keg cooler, we have a half barrel of Live Oak Pilz- made right here in Austin. Real Ale's Full Moon Pale Rye Ale is one of my other Texas favorites. North by Northwest's (local brewer) Blackjack Ale is good. it's a Belgian Dark aged in Jack Daniels bourbon barrels. ...no beer belly h...

because of this thread i actually carried the spec bump today (instead of the Gayle Bradley that has been seeing increased pocket time lately). this blade does function well as an EDC = my opinion. the ergos are great and i do love how Kershaw/ZT texture the G10 on some of their knives. i am also a ...

I just got a new Aqua Salt from cutleryshoppe.com and the blade is out of alignment. When I set it on a table on its side, the blade sits at least 2 mm closer to the table on one side, versus the other. You can tell just by looking at it that it's crooked.

actually my Chinooks get abused more. i realize that the knife was designed for MBC, but it performs so well in my field. my Captain has also taken an extreme amount of abuse without failure.
