Thats an awesome find! Clean it up, acid stonewash it and make yourself a Centofante Apocalypse edition!

My full size Jungle Commander was one of my favorite overall *designs* ever. That unfortunately is where the positive comments come to a drop dead halt. I handled a few different Emerson models recently and I had the same thoughts and feelings about them then as I did 2 years ago.

I would love a canis in DLC as its the first new blade from Spyderco that I've really been interested in since the Shaman came out. Unfortunately, I really cant justify $200 for the regular version, let alone any more for a DLC version :( If they released a serrated canis in DLC, I may reconsider. S...

Yesterday I bought a discontinued LADYBUG™ II BLACK FRN LBKII serrated sheepsfoot like the one below from a guy in a parking lot. I was there for the Ontario SP-1 and SP-10 he had on CraigsList but he also had a ziplock bag full of pocket knives that he bought from the State Surplus Store in Austin...

I personally have always found serrated edges to be easier to sharpen and keep sharp. I understand this is the Spyderco discussion area, but in the interest of furthering information in the discussion, I'm going to bring up my Microtech Socom elite. I have a combo edge model and I always liked the w...

Just gotta come back here and say y'all, I recently purchased a new phone on a whim because it was a good deal. It is a Oneplus 7 Pro. I cannot begin to tell you how nice the upgraded 90mHz refresh rate is on this phone. The display is gorgeous and infinitely smooth, the phone is wicked fast (Snapdr...

I have had a number of phones. I enjoy updating every year and a half or 2. I have had experience with smartphones from apple, motorola, ZTE, samsung, LG, Google and essential. Motorola is probably king of the budget phones, or at least they were up until samsung released their "A" series phones. Mo...

Gus Johnson makes fantastic videos. If you get the chance, watch the Godless country and Godforsaken country videos. Pinnacle of comedy haha

If I forget my usual carry, I have a spare blade in my truck. I also have a spare blade or 2 in my backpack which goes most places with me. I once forgot to stick my knife in my pocket before making a 3 hour drive to visit friends for a weekend. Thankfully walmart has some decent options nowadays an...

I have always loved reptiles. My poor mother on the other hand, cannot stand them. Still, shes allowed me to have some over the years. I had a high yellow leopard gecko named Charlie for 5 or 6 years and he was great. Right after Charlie passed, I got a female creamsicle Crested gecko that I named C...

I am running some cheap off brand rechargeable 18650's from Amazon called EBL. They say 3000mAh at 3.7v on the case. They work fine in my Fenix PD35 and I use the light frequently on duty. I suspect 3.7v is not enough to drive the diode at max output though because the 1000 lumen setting looks like ...

The Manix XLS! (Xtra Large Slim) Beautiful work my friend. I am very much a fan. Looks super comfortable to hold.

Anyone have any good recommendations for anti fog for glasses? I wear my Wiley X Valors for eye pro when I go shooting but I will also wear a shemagh pretty frequently as the shooting locations in my area are windy, sand filled places and I prefer to keep the sand from beating the skin off my face l...

I regularly utilize my leatherman skeletool for various tasks. I had a wave but I sold it because close to 9 OZ was way to much for my pocket and I'm not a belt pouch person. The skeletool's blade holds an edge pretty well for being 420HC and it sharpens back up to a hair popping edge with little ef...

I traded for a 440v SE Millie with one of our very own on the forums. Eventually I got bored with it and traded it back to him. Its the only knife I have and still do regret getting rid of. 440v is a great steel and was never terribly difficult to keep sharp on the sharpmaker. Great testing that mak...

Primarily a bassist. Dabble in guitar and percussion. I worked for L.R Baggs for 3.5 years and while I was there, had access to some pretty significant discounts. Before I left I purchased a Breedlove Pursuit series in mahogany. Absolutely adore that guitar. My bass is an Ibanez SR500PB. Ibanez make...

There are tons of great guns out there. For all kinds of applications. But like many here have wisely stated; what you like and what I like could be entirely different. I thoroughly enjoy my Rem 870 magnum for most applications, but even with an 18 inch barrel and a collapsible stock, it's too long ...

I have found for most purposes, a combo edge blade works wonders. I think a lot of people look at combo edge knives as two different sections of blade to use for two different tasks. I have always found that the biggest upside of having a 50/50 split of edge types is that the teeth of a serrated edg...

Eh, we'll have to agree to disagree, I prefer the Baby Horn as a pocket knife. The only advantage a slippie has, is legality in some places. I don't pay attention to knife laws to begin with, so legality is a moot point for me. Same with guns, I carry one regardless of location or restrictions and ...

Eh. I live in CA. Friday I drove down to Los Angeles with a buddy and bought a truck. I am hospital security so like a lot of you, I am an essential role or whatever haha. I am glad to not be out of work though. When I'm not working at the hospital, I'm working on the truck. Detailing it, getting it...
