Chip isn't quite sharpened out, but getting closer as it gets sharpened down more.
Glad I'm not the only one with a "let it ride" approach.

In the end I personally decided for the CBN as my most abrasive sharpmaker rod, just cause some said it would have better longevity.
Same. I'd certainly like something that cuts faster, though.

Re: Manix 2XL Brown Cruwear?

Dan + Jeff answered the direct question well.

I'll just add that the Crucarta M2XL was show off at Shot Show, so there's hope that it's out before the end of the year.

For some reason, I can't draw a bead on a price point for this baby.
Titanium. Spyderco. It’s going to be $120 minimum.
the S35VN Tenacious is currently $112.00 on BHQ, the M4 model is $133.00. I bet this is a $200.00 knife.

Re: New Tenacious Frame Lock in D2?

I find lightning anodizing unattractive. I’m sure some folks like it. I find it to be an odd choice. I feel similarly. I also think Fat Carbon looks silly. I think it's an attempt to appeal to the Civivi/CJRB/Kizer fans. I get the feeling you do not know fatt carbon is a maker/dealer of materials a...

Father-in-law bought us a cut-to-fit rubber mat for the wife’s Subaru, but she already had one. So to my car it goes!

Rockjumper made quick work of the 1/4” rubber.

Re: Sneaky Sneak from Eric at Shot Show

Looks like the Military 2 will be the next CruCarta. I hope they space those CC puppies out, because I won't be able to say no to any of them. I knew '24 was gonna be a big Spyderyear for me after Reveal 14, and now comes Sal & Eric with more BBB 15v Sprints and Coatings! And Rex121! The little...

Re: Handmade Burl Wood Scales for the Gayle Bradley 2

Great work. Are the liners still exposed, or did you cover them up?

I’d love some contoured Micarta that defeats the proud liners.
