Re: Bram Frank Gunting

I remember being so proud of my Gunting and Chinook 1 back in 2001! They were so unique and I bought them at the same time in a brick and mortar store.

That’s was a lot of fun to watch. I cringed when he started digging the edge into that very hard bocote. Yikes!

Re: ST. Nicks Exclusive Delica

Something interesting I’ve notice is that youtuber keithkevinken hasn’t reviewed his. He tends to show all of the new releases pretty quickly on his channel.

Re: ST. Nicks Exclusive Delica

I’d love to have one, it’s just that price. I guess I’m used to picking up an FRN VG-10 Delica second hand for $40 or $50 bucks. $190 is kind of hard to swallow.

Re: Coyote Urban/UKPK

I’m in! What a great combo. I like AEB-L. Nice simple stuff that gets wicked sharp and requires almost zero maintenance.

$175 was fair, I was tempted yesterday to get that one. I missed the first run of these.

Re: Against the grain...

S30V isn’t my favorite steel but if I like the design it won’t stop me from buying it. I do dislike light detents. My biggest hatred is that middle finger flick people are so fond of. It’s an abomination.

Got mine too. Perfect out of the box. My wife even likes it! Maybe one of my favorite out of the box Spydies. It checks a lot of boxes.

Re: How can you like FRN but hate FRCP?

I like both. However, the Manix and Native seem to have sharper/square molded edges around the circumference of the handle. A little more rounding of the molded edges would make them significantly more comfortable in hand.

Re: Para 3 exclusive at River's Edge Cutlery

Pretty cool! River’s Edge is one of the few shops I’ve actually visited. I’ll have to budget for this one, I’m sure it’ll be top notch.
