I have not seen a Buck Mayo TNT in years. I should have spent the money on one way back when.

I had no idea there was also a Buck Strider with Bos 420HC. But with liner lock and pinned.

Something inexpensive and a bit weird, Kershaw Kapsule manual out the front is on its way.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
The Kershaw Kapsule is definitely different.
My "other" in the mail is a Sears "Old Crafty" Stockman. It strongly resembles a Schrade Old Timer, but I'm waiting for confirmation on that.

Leatherman Bond. Has more of a retro design than most of their current offerings, which I appreciate.. Reminiscent of the old PSTs. I don't carry multi-tools often, but this one appealed to me..

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
HAhah! Nope, no more CRKs.. not for a while anyways.. I've decided I need to spend more time enjoying the knives I have vs. buying new ones. Hah that and I pretty well exhausted my whole 2021 knife budget in the last 2 months.. :o

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I understand all too well. This week and next will be pretty quiet on the knife-purchasing front for me. After next week, I'll resume purchasing, on a smaller scale.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Cool!
Edit: did not notice before - is that an auto version?

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
My buddy at work has this knife, he's got one with some rubberized (??) fish scale looking scales, very comfortable in hand and a nice knife overall. Told him if he ever wants to get rid of it, maybe we can make a trade. Nice score!

Yes. And completely black and sterile with a tritium vial in the button.
I never had a "tactical" knife, nor an auto, nor anything with Strider ergos, so I am pretty curious about this.

I always thought Strider knives looked ugly but I have to say, over the past few months they've been growing on me. It looks like a great utilitarian design.
Nice SAK's, too.

Thanks.
I think Striders are a bit over the top, and I would like titanium on both sides, not G10 for my money. So this Protech is the closest I will ever get to an SnG. But I could EDC the PT no problem, I think, it is cute. :)

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Just received my order for a Smock. So far it’s a big disappointment. There is no way I can tune this to where I can flip it. The blade is very good, but as far as I’m concerned the total evaluation is a 4 out of 10. Sorry!
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Wow, sounds like you really got a dud! The two I've had were fidget dream knives, and super easy to flip. I'd send yours back for sure.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Ordered a TRM Neutron 2 yesterday from a small "surprise" release. Got me a Nerd a while back and I wasn't that impressed with it, but it has grown on me a lot lately. I just need to know when to wear it and when to get a real knife...
They have the most amazing customer service. Got a crack in my Nerds micarta scales, sent them an email and within hours they had sent a replacement scale. And not only that, they even threw in a extra pair of scales. Like, who does that?
Anyways, im excited to try out the Neutron. I think it might become a real EDC for my purposes.
