Just watched both videos. Nice work! I enjoyed the humor and the thorough reviews. The only problem with the second video is that it didn't have SHSC (Super Hot Slapping Chick). ;)

There's a new video up (a classic pistol this time). But another Spydie review will be up next, and another new character.

I'm sure the SHSC will be back sometime... :)

Great as always, Gino! I know next to nothing about guns, so I actually appreciated the history lesson. Amazing that an antique pistol still works that well.

As requested, I just posted a short video of the CPM154/S90V Paramilitary 2 sprint. Not so much of a review, as a little information and some close up shots. The link is below...

Thanks, Gino, for the neat video. I think yours has the most even lamination I've seen. And congratulations on the great catch (I think, the lowest price I've heard of) and on keeping your complete PM2 sprint collection complete!!

And, oh yes, BOOYA!!! (Is that how you spell it :confused: )

Bumping this up for those who may have missed it the first time around.

Also, I've gotten quite a few great knives since taking a break from this. So, I'll try to get a few new write-ups in here soon... :D

This is my first time at seeing this thread and all I can say is WOW!!! This has a ton of solid information. I love the comparison pics in each review. It definitely helps put each knife in perspective. Thanks so much for the work you've put into this thread. Also, you've got another Youtube subscriber as well.

gbelleh,

Thank you so much for the great reviews and for remaining so consistent ...
I know how much work is involved in producing a body of work such as this, especially when you are clearly striving to provide valuable and accurate information.
So well done - I have now read every single post in this thread and have viewed a few of your YouTube vids.
You have helped those of us without "brick and mortar" options enormously.

Thank you again, Sir.

Thanks for the bump. Lucky that I noticed, since we don't get notifications of posts in subscribed threads from the old forum. Now I am resubscribed :D

Probably the best thread I have read so far on this forum! The comparisons to standard models really help to distinguish the features of the more exotic offerings.

I did, but I haven't decided how to handle the patina issue yet. So haven't really been carrying it.
