Re: If laws and public perception were no issue, would you carry a different knife?

I've only lived in knife friendly states, so I can carry my OTFs, 4.25" folders, etc, so I was going to answer "No". However, if I'm going out in the woods where I won't see hardly anybody else, I'm carrying a 3.75-4.5" fixed blade. I don't really carry folders as they're not as ...

Re: M4 Bow River?

I have a Sprig and South Fork, but would definitely buy something with a steel upgrade, magnacut, elmax, m390, Cruwear, CPM-M4. For me, bdn1, 440, 14c28n, spy27n, would be too similar in edge retention to the current model to be worth it. Kinda like doing a 154cm sprint run of a VG-10 model.

Re: CTS-204P Shaman

That’s is a very good looking green. Okay I will put it out there…. If you were going to buy one which is the better knife? Grey Elmax or Green 204P? Is it just color preference or is the 204P a noticeable step above Elmax? Pretty similar, both stainless, ELMAX is tougher, 204P has more edge retent...

CTS-204P Shaman

Just got an email, looks like they're using their dark green G10, which I definitely like on the PM2, for the newer guys this is equivalent to M390/20CV.

Re: se salts for ocean swimming

I think it's more lakes and rivers, but there some long (3-6ft) plant life that lives on the bottom usually about 2-10 ft from the surface that has been known to wrap around a swimmers feet when jumping in off a boat or dock, I've experienced it myself, luckily not to bad of a wrap and I've spent a ...

Re: Reveal 5 Live!

Will try to get the Shaman since I've missed the last 2 sprints by minutes or seconds, also will get the K390 Dragonfly and Endura, as well as a Swick PE, I like the Yojumbo, but will wait for a sprint steel (BHQ maybe?).

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!

They didn't have a digital line because the knife was removed from my cart when I tried to pay. +1, I got it in my cart, shipping address, credit card info in, and then "sold out" on what should have been my confirmation screen. It showed 901 in stock when I added it to my cart. However, ...

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!

I must have been at the 1:50 Mark, because it showed sold out after the last step of payment, took my lunch break at 12:30p just for this too and still missed it.

Re: Rivers Edge Cutlery Mystery Exclusive (DLC 10V/Coyote Brown G10 Paramilitary 2)

Received my DLC version today, I definitely prefer the lighter brown of this one to the darker Brown of the S35VN, still super cool to see a CPM-10V Spyderco, hope they or somebody does a Military also

Re: Rivers Edge Cutlery Mystery Exclusive (DLC 10V/Coyote Brown G10 Paramilitary 2)

Picked one up, saw the hints, and thought the release was further out, glad I saw this thread in time, really like the 10V, have a couple custom fixed blades in it and really like those. The went with DLC so it doesn't look exactly like the S35VN one, not a big fan of color scales, but it's about th...
