"RhinoCom"... molested Subcom concept

Greetings all. I've posted this on an SD forum and thought I'd post it hear.

I'm a big fan of the Forward Grip, Edge Up (FGEU) style of self defence knife work, and the Subcom happens to be one of my favorite EDC knives for a variety of reasons, such as the deep choil, fast open and compact size ...

First Delica... first spyderbite

Well, yesterday, a slightly used (see; pocket clip almost silver, openning very gritty), forest green Waved Delica 4 landed in my mail box, all the way down under from the states.

I'm in love! It's currently set up for RH TU carry... I have taken to carrying to in my left pocket and waving it into ...

Hope everything works out... things like this have a tendency to.

Despite the fact I buy knives for use, not collecting, I'll never, ever get a sealed NIB box in my hand, because of the Australian Customs Service's penchant for openning my knives and 'examining' (see 'playing with') them.

Nothing on earth compares to the endorphin release of a good weight session.

I sent today what I would describe as being an email with the filthiest language I've ever used to Mr Osborne. Paypal has paid me out, minus $25US for the claim fee.

This guy's a total scammer. Beware.

During my working week (which is 4-6 days dependant on what roster I'm on), I shave using a Mach 3. Used to use Turbos, but considering the price to benefit difference, I go with the plain Mach 3s.

When I don't have to run out the door however, I have a Dovo straight razor.

Irrespective of when I ...

All Reverse S blades

The Civilian/Matriarch is my pick.

In the gravest extreme, I would prefer no other blade type in my hand.

Wildealz turned Scammer (?)

I've left negative feedback owing to a knife no show and total lack of communication to date. I've also escalated a claim with Paypal.

I guess that's what you get for buying the lowest priced Civi on ebay :( What a heartbreaker... now I have no Civi and my money will be tied up for a month, and I ...
