Re: Sal, question regarding the Salt line and LC200

Hi TBD, H2 requires hollow grinding. It is possible to make a Manbug or a Ladybug in LC, but I wouldn't want to make a Manbug with the original grind until I see the reaction on the newer leaf shape Manbug, which I prefer. Also a Ladybug would require a thinner blade stock and the odds of making en...

Sal, question regarding the Salt line and LC200

My question is since LC200 can apparently handle the FFG better than H1/H2, are there models that could possibly see an FFG added? Particularly the LBHB or Manbug? Tasman? I would be all over an FFG PE LBHB but also a Manbug with the original blade shape. Thanks for your time

Not looking forward to the freezing weather down here Sunday-Wednesday. Heat pump can’t keep up in prolonged cold weather. It’s Friday. Time to relax.

Re: Mini Yojimbo Prototype ?

Where is the index finger supposed to locate, on a MicroJimbo? At point A or B? I'm sure you could do either, but for which location was the MicroJimbo designed? How does Mr. Janich hold it for its intended purpose, index forward (A) or index back (B)? Dear Bolster: For my purposes, typically B. If...

Re: Janky grind on K390 Delica Wharncliffe

My last LBHB H1 has a terrible grind especially at the tip. I kept it because it’s a bathing suit knife but some of this should be caught by QC. That Wharn K390 D4 was not cheap either

Re: MicroJimbo?

I handled this today at my brick and mortar, definitely not a SD knife as the pinky doesn’t really fit well. And I have very medium hands. I like it, and may still grab one as an EDC but I don’t think the three finger grip lends to the slashing as the Yo2 does

Re: 2023 - Did your preferences change or stay the same?

I went way smaller. I detest scratching my cars with pocket clips so I have basically gone Dfly or Manbug with lanyard in the pocket
