I won't lie, a big part of my lack of interest in the Techno is the looks. I'm just not a fan of short and stubby. There have been a few that I could almost get into, but for the most part I need a knife to be sexy and have some kind of exotic feel to it. The Techno just doesn't do that for me. It'...

Maybe Nemo Arms would consider using H-1 for its Titanium AR. Then they could bring the price up to an even $100,000.

I already have a Spyderco blade exchange system. When I need or want a different blade, I just go exchange it for one of the others in my collection. The best part is that mine all come with built in handles. :D Seriously though, I think that the price point would have to very high. Almost equal to ...

I'm guessing the black CF Domino also looks nicer in person than in pictures. :) And don't they both have the same feel? Nope, they don't have the same feel? They both have some texture, but the "black" CF feels a little smoother. I think I very slightly prefer the feel of the "black...

Here it is! http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/winkler_chad/spyLeafstorm_zps6e1641c2.jpg Thanks to everyone for their feedback. The ergos of this knife are not as bad, for me, as some of you described they are for you. They are not the best but I really like this one. I found a couple others t...

PM9 or CM9. I've been carrying a PM9 almost every day for about the last 8 years. Great little gun! I definitely plan to get one or two of these little Kahr Delicas. :) Thanks. I was at the Kahr site when you were responding. 8 years! That sounds like an endorsement to me. I'm going to a gun show t...

I really like these knives, but I don't have a Kahr pistol. I might just have to get both so I have a pair. I've been wanting a small 9mm for a while now anyway. :rolleyes: Which of the Kahr 9mm pistols is the smallest? Anybody know?

The scales on the Sage/Chap 1 are not peel ply. Peel ply has a rougher texture like most G-10s. The Sage/Chap have a CF with a three dimensional weave that make each little square of CF a little bump. I'd describe it as bumpy vs. rough on the peel ply. The bumpy CF is a thin top layer that is lamin...

"... a little different from the peel-ply CF on the Sage 1 and Chaparral 1." Can someone please clarify for me? Are the Scales on the Sage1 and Chap1 "peel-ply", or are they carbon fiber laminated to a G-10 base? I have heard more than one person refer to it as peel-ply. I guess...

I don't have a Szabo yet, but it does have a slightly rougher texture than my Sage 1. Not much, but it is definitely different.

I just got mine out of the mailbox. Sorry, no pics, but others have already provided some great ones. This is a very nice knife produced with the typical high quality that's seen in the other Taichung folders.

That's funny, I kind of like the Firefly more now based on that picture. An SR-2 sized Lion Spy makes sense. It looks like 2014 should be pretty interesting. My thoughts exactly. That photo of the Firefly makes it a little more appealing to me. The Lion Spy Jr. looks great. The Domino, well, it sho...

Thanks for all the encouraging comments and greetings! Scratches does not bother me, a good tool should wear proof that it indeed isn't for looks only. However the ZDP might be too hard for the job, maybe they will brake the blade, but there's only one way to find that one out, isn't there? :-)... ...

Careful with those oysters. They can do a number on your blade. Someone on one of these forums has a Techno to prove it.

I was into paintball a few years ago. I was more of a woodsball player and it just became hard to organize good events around everybody's schedules so we haven't played much the last couple of years. It is loads of fun and I would love to do it more. http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv251/winkler_...
