I can post pics later if anyone is interested.

Yes please

I just saw the correct handed PM2 up for pre-order on Knife Center. Somehow I missed it until now. I'll probably get two just to be safe. I assume there won't be very many produced.

This and the Q Ball are what I'm waiting for.

Edit:

And the Wharncliffe Delica. I forgot about that one.

Really looking forward to this one.

(and the Q ball)

Ballistol is a cleaner than you can find locally (usually a gun shop) or on Amazon. It will clean the G10 better than just about anything else.

As for the screws.

Try freezing the knife and see if they will come loose.

Not drilled for lefty carry.

I have a Ti Squeak so yes. I'd get one.

I know.

Two of my favorite knives in my favorite color with a new steel. I guess I'm not done buying knives after all.

At $220 what's the secondary market price going to be? $275? $300?

I think that's where the demand for the BHQ came from. Flippers.

I don't see a dozen of these knives on EBay the day after they are released.

Ha! Tang. I like it.

Any current news on the Gauntlet?

I was reading a current thread on sharpening serrations with a Sharpmaker and that was the first I've heard of the Gauntlet.

How about orange-ish?

I'm curious what other companies put the model name on their blades? I may not have as many knives from different manufacturers as some but I have knives from at least 6 or 7 manufacturers and only 1 (Kai) puts the model number (not name) on their blades. Personally, I don't think I'd want anymore ...

Actually, the brightness depends a lot on how long the scales stay in the dye bath and possibly how hot/boiling the water is. Mine took several hours.

The instructions for cloth say to use vinegar. Did you use it for yours? (Gorgeous BTW)

That method works well for iPhones too.

The Caly 3 is a great knife.

I stripped two of the Husky T-6 bits. Wiha will be my next purchase.

I like the crisp edge for the record. As Sal stated you can soften it if you prefer it less crisp. I tend to have rougher hands and they are often wet so the crisper edge suits me.

In preparation for the possibility of getting an M4 PM2, I'm wondering how well the color sticks when G10 handle scales are treated with RIT dye? Did you end up getting one? I'd like to try to dye one orange but I don't know what to do. Should I use orange dye or red? (Red and yellow make orange) I...
