The guy who I bought both the 204P and the M390 PM2’s from out of his huge collection, he had a Shirogorov in his pocket. He said when he initially bought it he said to himself “are you stupid for buying a $1000 pocket knife??” He said after he carried it and used it one time, he never thought about the money he spent on it again!
Ha! Well I can't say I've never thought about the cost (even though I didn't spend quite that much), but I will say that the longer I do carry it, the more sense it makes.
I may have a problem... :rolleyes: :D

I hear ya. That’s what the Sebenza did to me, and exactly why I’m hesitant to pick up a Shiro LOL
Just look at it this way: if it keeps you from buying more knives, you'll actually be saving money by buying one! :rolleyes: :D
I like the way you think!

Yes, the Bareknuckle and the Natrix share design cues with the ZT 0770.

When I flipped the clip around on the SAK, you can see where my finger grazed the edge of the Inkosi and stole a little skin haha!

I've carried my CRKs pretty much exclusively for the past month.. they are great knives.

Slumming it today with the Hogue EX-02. In spite of the wonky pocket clip, it's also a pretty great knife!

A rare occasion today, I forgot to grab a main knife before coming into work this morning! The SAK will have to prove its worth for a couple hours.

Manly Wasp S90V
How are you liking it? ;)
It's a beautiful knife with awesome materials but seems lacking in the finishing. The blade is amazing, love the geometry. Its BTE comes in @.010". The lock leaves something to be desired. It has a weird 1/3 and 2/3 stop instead of a half stop. The lock bar tension seemed excessive even for a slip joint. That combined with a small nail nick it made it a chore to open safely even two handed. Once I had it apart I found the lock face wasn't parallel to the pivot axis. The tang was only touching on one side of the lock bar. After removing about .050" from the inside of the lock bar and truing up the face all is well.

Took pics for another thread but I threw them in my pocket. Case CV Sway Back and CRK Impinda workhorse. Even if it’s a slipjoint, the Impinda is a great working knife.

Manly makes a lovely blade, but they need to step up their fit and finish game. Glad to hear that you were able to improve it!

Thanks! I had a feeling I'd like the skinny models, and I definitely do. The SDK fat carbon scale is icing on the cake!
