Should I be concerned about PM2 detent when carrying IWB?

This topic has my interest, I'd be subjecting the (OEM ironwood) scales to water rinsing after using the knife for food preparation daily (like my Caly 3.5), so I was curious if simply carrying out regular applications of mineral oil on the ironwood would prevent wood rot/decomposition or if it ...

By using a scotchbrite pad on the forced patina it seems like the protection from rust that would be provided gets removed, except for the tang area perhaps.

They only have current knives (but plenty of them) and they 'reward' folks taking the trouble to go to the outlet. Enjoy your trip!
Thanks Ted that's what I wanted to hear.

With a list like that you better find out how much the most expensive one costs and only take that much money. I think I would have to walk out with at least two. Especially when the list ends with "and a few more". :D
When they ask you "what would you like?", just say YES. :)

What knives are in stock at the factory outlet store?

I'm torn between several models and really just want to hold them all before making a commitment on just one (blasphemy I know).

I'm thinking of going on Saturday and was curious if there is a large selection of current and past knives available, and to get an idea of prices...anyone care to chime ...
