sorry for the delay in getting the results out for this week. it's been a rough one so far. i know i asked for a theme of your edc pair, but as i stated in another post, it's not a rule and all submissions will be considered.

the winner for this week is giftedmisfit. i actually hate digital camo and this picture made me want some. great use of color.

you all posted some sweet knives this week. that dlc pm2 with od handles is so nice. the caribbean looks beautiful with all black scales (a feat i didn't know was possible). the manix with textured micarta scales and wood scales on the shaman... yum. that autonomy is sweet too. good job everyone!

Thanks so much for the nod Ladybug. I have no idea why, but I love taking pictures of my :spyder: 's. More than I like taking pictures of my kids (dont tell'em).

Showed my wife the Red and Black Shaman and she said they look like Fisher price toys. Her favorite variation is the one she got for me, the all black dlc one.

I love it though, every variation, even if I'll never be able to afford another ($300+ Canadian)

:D :D :D I definitely wouldn't let my kids near mine! But I will admit, my boys do have a lot of action figures with that same black and red combo. ;)

I totally agree with your missus! Every time i see a black blade/red handle this is what i think of

i love the black and red, but i won't buy a shaman. i also don't like the steel choice in just about every sprint and exclusive. they're almost always tool steels. the closest i got to pulling the trigger was on the manix in cpm20cv that came out earlier this year. the red handles and satin blade look cheap to me though. it looks like a $10 knife you'd buy from harbor freight or lowes. the dlc looks much better with the red scales in my opinion.
