So it's a cup lol. I was thinking it might be a 20 oz small machete or something similar and beginning to think I'd missed out on something :eek:

Back to the 52100, the handles are just outstanding imo.
I like them even better than G10. Would love to see more of that material on other models.
And I really do like the black clip. Its a nice matte finish.
Looks a lot better than I thought it would.

Awesome!!
Man I thought that was a pretty sweet deal.
And just considering the steel, CTS - 204P is premium super steel no less. Ive always loved 204P and M390 anyways.
Ive got 2 in M390 and this will make number 3 in 204P.

I may jump on it if the 52100 really clicks for me. I like the steel also. It's been great in my southard.

Got mine in today. Had to take a lunch break and check the mail box. First military, very impressed. Had a hard time keeping from flicking it between calls. Didn't shave hair off the arm as good as my last endura purchase but no big deal. Sliced through tomato, onion and some cottonwood like a laser though.

Yeah they are trickling in, yesterday I just happened to check my email right after NGK sent out a notification they had some in stock again, picked up one of their remaining 3, so now I'll have 2 of the 52100, maybe a 3rd if Oso Grande ever gets any more. For awhile I was getting worried, I never seemed to time it right on the KW preorders when they put them up, and I wasn't sure if I could count on KC, but they came through.

I don't even want to count how many total Military's I have now... :D
