Re: "Fast lane obsessed" people

It's all about line of sight for me. I like enough of a field of vision ahead of me that makes it easy for me to react. I like to go ahead if a vehicle is too slow in front of me and is relatively easy and safe for me to pass. If it's too fast to pass easily, I'll hang back and let it go far enough ...

Re: Choosing an Edge Angle Based on Steel Type

I keep my cheapo kitchen knives thin(maybe 10 dps). then just touch up by microbeveling. They seem to hold up to harder use(my wife) chicken bones, cutting on top of the counter. These days, I really am a convert to lower carbide steels. Also, I strip a lot of insulation from wires, my opinel seems ...

Re: Does anyone here ride motorcycles?!?

I ride motorcycles too but I"m just drooling over your bikes. I've ridden since I was in school. Over 30 years now and I still get that feeling of freedom when I sling my leg over my bike. Even more these days.

Re: Batteries For Flashlights And Other Toys?

Yeah, that 21700 for edc seems bulky, would love to find out how it rides owb though. Are you getting enough throw with that lumintop triple emitter at a 100 meters? Good on you for supporting the industry and upgrading every other year. Personally I prefer to buy one premium flashlight in every ba...

Re: In search of the perfect EDC flashlight

I edc a Lumintop FW3A. It's pretty near the perfect light for me although there's no such thing just like there's no perfect knife. It's the smallest 18650 light I could find.

Re: Batteries For Flashlights And Other Toys?

No experience with those, which lights are you looking at if you don't mind? A couple of sofirns. The c8g and the c8f. I already have 2 C8's but the 18650 ones. Hadn't heard of that brand, looks well built and they currently have a big sale on their website. Are you looking to edc their 21700 forma...

Re: Batteries For Flashlights And Other Toys?

Anybody use 21700 yet? I hear those guys have currently the highest energy density. None of my chargers will fit that batt. protected 26650 is the longest they will fit at the moment so I haven't gotten around to getting a light with 21700 although there are a few I am looking at.
