Re: Kahr Delica, I don't get it

The Khar never leaves my person. It is legal, powerful (leverage), unobtrusive and all but weightless. Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Re: CF & S90v Manix2 XL and Yojimbo from KW

Evil, Sorry 'bout your banking problems, but fear naught you were covered up to and including one Yo2 by the Universal Bank of Karma. I had canceled my order in favor of a Domino C172CFBLTIP which I didn't have but do now and LOVINGIT. An S30v Yo2 came all the way from Malaysia during the interminab...

I enjoy my smurf yo but i wish the original had the same blade length as the 2. I wish knifeworks would receive and ship the S90V one already. I'm very tempted to purchase an S30V to hold me over. I did just that and worried about it. But that was before I saw all the quality pictures that have bee...

The reason the above pic is a mug shot is that it doesn't really show what the peel-ply CF scales from Golden look like. If you go back to pp 15 & 17 in this thread and look at the first shots of the same material on the Manix 2 XL, some including G10 for comparison, you can get a much better i...

In this particular case style trumps feel as I bought a lovingly cared for Yo2 in S30V to hold me until the S90V pre-order arrived. On condition that I give it a good home. I've done that but in so doing created the dilemma I now face. There's nothing wrong with the S30V version. So if the scales ar...

To be fair to the CF Yo2, the image above is the equivalent of a mug shot. Ain't nobody look good in a mugshot. I think that is the only reason it doesn't look as exciting as you were expecting. Peep ply carbon fiber makes for an amazing knife scale. Just you wait and see! +1 I love my Peel Ply Man...

Pull that trigger on the Domino. I have one and certainly have not regretted it. Love the Blue Lightning CF Hot durn there boy!!! I knew I could count on you guys to help me spend my money. Still, I'd like to know if it's the pic making the Yo2 look subdued. The Yo2 in S30V suites me well. So the s...

Nice. I just scored a new Yo2 (s30v) I know I'll prolly want the nice CF S90v after I get the regular one.... Beware!, I did the same thinking that it would ease the wait. It worked so well that I'm now rethinking my pre-order Yo2 CF-(s30v). Mine came with a titanium deep carry clip mounted, and st...

First off, thanks to all for the knowledge provided on this forum. Also the enthusiasm for this run of knives is catching. I called back today to check on a couple of things. The Yojimbo 2 will ship in August, and the charge to the CC is only temporary and should "fall off" in a couple of ...
