Is that a vault? If so, it's the nicest i've ever seen. Yep an underground network buss tie vault. About 16ft deep. Had approximately 100 sets of 3 phase 500kcm rubber neoprene insulated cable all with buss ties and limiters. It is one of the most neat and well executed examples I've seen as far as...

I've never even bothered checking out a SE knife for the sharpening reasons, but with this knowledge I may just give it a try!

Well I've had the Microstream for a few days now and have used it a ridiculous amount. I use it at work for checking underground ductwork for breakdowns, spot checking joint splices on cable and a myriad of other things at home. I must say I'm very impressed. I'm no flashlight guru by any means, and...

Very cool.. Enjoy them brother! I love seeing people using their knife as its intended to be in real world scenarios. I don't own any extravagant knives but I do own several lower, upper level priced spydies and use them all. A buddy of mine always cringes when he sees me using them. I've come to sa...

My Friends, it is official: I lost MY Lionspy!!! It never arrived...

I was actually thinking about purchasing this for my 5 year old daughter because she loves to sit and watch daddy clean and sharpen his knives.

Just practice opening and closing a lot with different techniques. As stated before adjust the pivot to where you like it and put some lube around the pivot. Breaking it in can take quite a while but the speed and force applied to open the blade all depends on your deployment style. I prefer opening...

Well I ended up going with the streamlight Microstream.. Mainly due to its size and functionality in regards to my needs. It was very hard to resist the fenix models though.. When its time to up my game ill definitely be looking into them! Thanks for all the input and responses everyone!

Thanks! Actual shaking time was about an hour or so. But with breaks and all it took the afternoon. It's something you can do off and on when you have spare time.
