Thanx Josh. It takes a little getting used too when you've had regular XM-18 's. But, man they really are nice :D

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Thanks ! I carried it at work today, and while it is going to take some getting used to, I can see the appeal of the blade shape.
The clip however only allows me to carry it cross-draw horizontally. I tried reverse scout but I'd be afraid to pierce my lower back :D

How are you finding those Piranhas Josh? My former co-worker had one and to be honest I wasn't really impressed - just felt kinda cheap and rattly. I thought the Kershaw Launch 7 he subsequently bought had much better fit and finish. Maybe his was a lemon though because you seem to like yours alright! :)

You know, I like them for what they are. Yes there are a lot better options out their for autos. But, I like the fact these are made in Idaho and they use the Chris Reeves Sebenza clip under license from CRK. If it sports such an awesome clip I can overlook a little side to side play. Both of mine are centered, and fire hard as heck.The Meat man wrote: ↑Fri Jun 19, 2020 8:15 pmHow are you finding those Piranhas Josh?

Of all things, a Gerber Flat iron with the cleaver blade. It was given to me by my brother.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
That blade look like a wicked slicer! Any idea what the edge angle and thickness is?

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
I’m gonna guess based on feel .010 at the heel and gradually increases to .020 at the tip. Not bad for a big blade.its still wearing the factory edge. I bought it basically NIB from a guy that never carried it for several hundred cheaper than retail. It’s gonna change once I sharpen it but it’s definitely gonna be a daily driver for a while and get beat on.The Meat man wrote: ↑Sat Jun 20, 2020 9:01 amThat blade look like a wicked slicer!
