Great shootin benben!!

Thank you, it’s the pistol! A heavy, all steel pistol is a game changer!

Consider me wayyy late to the CZ party, this Shadow 2 makes me as happy with a new gun purchase as I’ve been in a very long time! The only problem I can see is I’ve gone through 2/3 a case of S&B ammo in a couple of weeks! This purchase came out of nowhere, a HK USP Expert 9mm was definitely on ...

I'd like a recommendation for a 3.5 to 4.5 inch 9mm. It must have a real safety ( I already have Glocks and don't consider this a real safety) . 10 round minimum with 15 preferred. Under $600. HK P30L V3, 4.45” barrel. Standard P30 V3, 3.85” barrel. These two first came to mind….then you said under...

serrations are fragile and the Manix 2 is more of a tough knife. That has not been my experience. I've found that serrations cut some tough materials better than a plain edge. When the job is complete, the serrated edge is still suitable for continued use, while the plain edge can be disappointingl...

I think the mechanical goodness of this design in such a small package is very cool!

Spyderco needs to partner with BHQ to release a M4/Jade Street Beat.

That will open the floodgates.

Not 100% sold on Jade but a Street Beat in M4….yeah I’d buy one!

Production Shun’s you can get from Williams-Sonoma is what got me started, I have four of them and use them all, great knives. But….my Muneishi Santoku was a complete eye opener, love this knife! I do plan on having a custom made from a forum member who regularly frequents Glocktalk, I know I want 8...

This is my current go-to, a bit of a splurge knife...

Tell us about it. What are the specs?

Yep, I’d like to hear about it also…

Born in 1965, so technically Gen X. Got to be a kid in the seventies and eighties and it was awesome! Stayed outside from sun up to sun down, learned to build and fix things, then break them and fix them again! I was turned loose with both a chainsaw and a Marlin .22 lever rifle at the age of 12, an...

Leafjumper.
Lil’ Temperance.
Manix 2.

Little Leaf theme going here!

I own four Dragonfly's, couldn't tell you the last time I carried one? Years! I also have a Compression Lock Lil' Native, never carry it either. But both fantastic little knives. My go to small knife now is a K390 Lil' Temperance, carrying it right now. But...a Back Lock G-10 Lil' Native with serrat...

Happy belated Birthday Mushroom!

For some reason the Bushcraft and the Proficient come to mind, don’t thick either had Micarta though?

Back in 2017, it was $190 ($221 out the door). To this day, it is my favorite PM2 and Spyderco. For a while I thought about getting a backup, but haven't yet. Seems like price is creeping up the longer I wait. If I had to replace it, I would pay what it goes for. Few of us here have been asking for...

I really like my SE Ayoob, but I LOVE my Cru-wear Manix 2 sprint run, a serrated Cru-Wear Manix would be an instant buy for me, maybe two of them!

Cru-wear is my favorite steel period, regardless of edge type.

IMG_3569.jpegIMG_3567.jpegIMG_3566.jpeg This is the first non HK pistol I’ve bought in the last 7 or 8 years….well except the Glock 19 I just bought for my daughter. Nice benben! I think you'll really like that CZ! I’ve wanted a heavy, steel, hammer fired pistol for a while now, this is my first op...

Great question with endless personal answers.

LeafJumper! Either edge you prefer, and in either K390 or VG-10, fantastic design!

I have a serrated K390 that impresses me more everyday.
