Hi Carrot :D

Nice to see you over here. Saw you bought a D4 and Caly3 on EDC forums so I knew you were hooked ;)

Hi Sverre, No immediate plans to increase the line. We have to watch the Yin-Yang pieces for a while. Our kitchen knives have never been widely accepted. sal Thanks for the quick reply Sal.

Sal: Expanding the kitchen line?

Hi Sal. If the Yin and Yang kitchen knives do well will we see an introduction of something like the Homemaker in VG-10? (or ZDP-189 :D ) I do have most of the Pro culinares from :spyder: and would really like a slightly upgraded (better looks and slightly better steel) Homemaker or Santoku. I'm loo...

I greatly prefer the Millie over the Endura (both are good though).

If slightly shorter blade is an option I'd go for a Caly3 over all the other 3" blades mentioned.

Was hoping for more kitchen knives. We need a chef's knife in VG-10. That would be sweet.
Ditto!

We (at least I..) want a Homemaker in VG-10 with micarta (or G10/wood) handle!

And a fixed blade in H-1 ;)

Other than that I'm a happy camper :D

Caly 3 in RFP and a Jester PE on my keys.

[quote="Jimd"]Hannibal, I've heard great things about Savage rifles. In fact, one day I hope to buy another sniper rifle (I sold mine off years ago when money was tight). There's a very good chance that the next one I buy will be a Savage. When I was a sniper, we were issued Remington 700 ...

Oregon:The only photos on this computer I have taken with a camera through the eye-piece are of a kidney stain from an autopsy and I doubt they are what you want to see :p It is a bit tricky to align the camera, but they do come out very well.

I don't think it will be good for looking at edges. We have mikroscopes (Zeiss) at work and a stereoscope is much better for looking at edges. This is because you shine light through what you're looking at with a microscope and steel does not let much light through ;) Often the camera gives a lot wo...

I only have 1 black blade and that was bought after basic training in the infantry. It is a non-stainless fixed blade and the added corrosion resistance and lower visibility was a large factor.

I really like the Traser watches with tritium inserts. I have a 6502 diver that is my current favorite.

I have a few others, but they don't see much use at the moment. They are mostly titanium, with a few beaters as an exception.
