Good find, Doc. I have yet to own a hawkbill, but have been looking.
"Me too" on the Tasman.
Actually, I did once have a tiny hawkbill, overpriced at $2.00, made out of CPM-butterknife-F. :D It still worked well when sharpened hourly, but the blade was gone in a week (serrations in two days).

Another request for a holster, here... :o
I am paying off a Gunting and should have it within two weeks, if all goes well.
At the knife shop I'm buying it from, the guy didn't want me to put it in my pocket, well OK, I can see that someone might do that and run off. I pulled out my three EDC's, and ...

In my RF pocket is my re-serrated Endura, it would be the quickest to get to.
Of the other two, Native RR and Delica LF, I would choose the Native for SD.
When I pay off my Gunting, I'll have to learn how to use it; as "just a knife", I'd rather use my Native.
OT: How many here have bought the ...

If it was FRN, regardless of blade steel, I'd open it up halfway and put it in the dishwasher; oil the pivot. I never had any problems doing this.
Now. I wait for a job (day or two at the most) where I have to adjust rotor heads, the ones that shoot about 30', and just blast out the whole knife ...

Dr., I would like to put 41 as my number.
Thank you for the contest!

Life without a Dremel would be, well, not much fun.
From re-serrating my old, worn Endura, to polishing feed ramps, to helping a friend make his dentures fit better, to cutting master locks off of peoples gates when they loose their keys, to making key copys work that didn't, to cutting rounded ...

JD, believe it or not... Wallyworld! About $13.00, Lowes about $18.00. I've seen em online, but shipping usually boosts the price above even Lowes.

I'm on my third Nite Ize Pockits in about 4 years. It carries my gerber multi-tool, mag light (lately I've been carrying a screw/nutdriver and in the lower pocket-a set of bits including torx instead of the maglight), adjusting screwdriver (sprinkler nozzles), drip punch, and in the back, a sharpie ...

After all the talk about the Gunting, I found one at one of the most expensive places to buy a knife (the price is probably why it is still there). So, after trying the kinetic opening and luckily only poking myself in the leg, I him-hawed for a while. 25% of the price, including tax was $45.00, I ...

I just started, but now I have the same van, parked at two different locations....
Wierd, I guess it's a blend of old and new, here in Albuquerque.
You know what they say about Albuquerque? Not much :D

Me thinks Sinbad is some kind of philosophical troll. Sometimes funny, though.
Sometimes a bit disjointed (or jointed.. :) )
Time will tell.
How's this one for ya?
Each day wounds
The last kills

Has anyone tried this yet? The data is at least 2 years old since I had a van parked and had to move it two years ago..but can see the van!
Pretty Cool!

You have to download the program, but it's free.
I marked some great places in the Jemez ...

The discussion of fanny packs came up several times on a CCW related forum. The black fanny packs were said (by some of the LEO's on the forum) to scream "Gun"!
One suggestion that I thought was good was to sew a patch on the FP that said "Sony' or anything that made the pack look like it held a ...

Tortoise, does this extend to other occupants of the vehicle, or just the driver?
I was one of the people who told a second hand account of someone refusing to exit the vehicle to be searched (a passenger), being arrested, and winning a settlment as a result.. Now I'm curious... :confused:

BBRex, this would be a good idea, as would a "sticky" Hi, I'm new to the forum" thread. A lot of general questions could be answered, quickly, with the suggestion to start a new tread for more specific Q's. Also, some of the features could be explained like the search function.
This is not to ...

Lets see, for general improvements, switch all of the black clips (at least from golden) to the coating used on the FRN Native. It seems to be much more scratch resistant.

I think some knives should still have a black clip, but I think the bead blasted clips are very nice. Even on modles that dont ...

My desktop and my Windows desktop. Both are kinda cluttered :eek:
Thats the motion activated cam on my workvan on screen. Yes, I have an alarm too :D .

Chad, I think what you did was morally right since it sounds like you carry a lot of respect in ****, and someone else, solo, might have gotten rushed. But, for your own wellbeing, I ask that you -never- do this again; myself and many others really enjoy you being here.
Make some serious noise, the ...

What David suggested might work. I find it easier to to "admit" to making a mistake when I have a purpose; in your case- getting your Delica back. If I'm wrong then I don't need a purpose, I just apologize. I hope this works, that is, you being able to find the cop, and it being in the right setting ...
