I hope so. I've been waiting on a PE hawkbill with G10 for a long time, and hopefully I'll be able to find a G10 CE flight, and CE Raven as well. I've been waiting to order until I could get all three (or 4, G10 ce cara cara) at once. I wish there was a Harpy/Merlin out in G10/FRN with SE or PE vari...

I've thought about this for a while, and I can see it as a great little knife. I love the Dodo, and I'd something like hte cutting power a Dodo offers in a ladybug or dragonfly sized knife. Granted, I need a cricket at some point, but a 'ladyhawk' would be wonderful, especially if priced similarly t...

I started playing counterstrike in 2000 or 2001, played up until 1.6, went back to 1.5 and started hosting my own servers because I hated 1.6. After the WON servers were shut down, I stopped playing until a while after Hal-Life 2 came out, when I took up CS:Source. However, a little over a year ago,...

Mine is kept in the car, but i believe if you look at the handle, somewhere around the glassbreaker/whistle, you should see a small circle with a SAL logo on it. It's a great knife - sadly I got mine 2 weeks before the orange model came out (which for this knife, I'd have preferred)....nonetheless, ...

Would have a tough time with this.... It'd be one of these (yes, I don't own all of them) Superhawk, [big] Manix, Chinook II, [big] Dyad, or possibly a Dodo, Spyker, or Captain. Of what I own at this moment, if I could pick from those, as much as I love my Dodo and Spyker and other knives, the big M...

I use one of four Canon digital SLR's - two 1D Mark II N, a 1Ds, and a 20D.

I took that photo a while ago, I need to update it, since I also have a Sigma 300-800 5.6, 35 1.4L, 15 fisheye, and 70-200 2.8L IS, plus the 1DIIN #2 and 1Ds not pictured.

I dunno...I haven't tried so many that might be the perfect knife for me. I know that, from what I do own, the Manix and Dodo are some of my favorite user knives. I love hawkbills as well... I'd love to see some of the knife drawings I've done be turned into a real knife...that would be my dream.......
