Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Finally found a CRK Umnumzaan DP, although it's a used one. Will post a pic when I get it in a few days.

WE Synergy 2v2, in all black.
I've been really slowing down my knife buying, but (much like Spyderco) there have been a few WEs in the past that I didnt appreciate the design of when they were available and are impossible to find, now. $253 felt like a really fair price to pay to ensure that doesn't happen to me with this model.

After handling it at BLADE, I ordered a Civivi Qubit. Was not on my radar, but it felt great in-hand and I like Sandvik14 steel.

A GEC again. This time a fixed blade H20 muskrat clip with a beeswax micarta handle. Not from this vendor, but this model variant.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I have a few zero ground Ban Tang BT4s that are in the mail. Two are in 3v and one is in elmax w/choil; all of them have the contoured micarta handles which are oh so nice. The reason I have two zero ground 3v's is a long story...
I initially bought just the one in 3v, and then when it arrived I was carrying it everywhere, and while sitting outside one day watching the dogs, I decided to try to whittle on a piece of wood with it; however, that part of that particular piece of wood must've had something embedded down inside it, because it rolled the edge all the way down the knife. The sections of that piece of wood that I'd whittled off previously with other knives hadn't given me any problems, and later when I revisited that particular piece of wood again with a different knife (one of my Ban Tang zero ground 3v SAF's), I had no issues whittling further down the stick. Anyway, I was able to hone it back with the penciled edge on my glass coffee table and quickly touch it back up, then I tried again and had a similar, far less extensive result, so I reached out to Ban (great experience, would absolutely recommend), and he had me send it back for him to look over and test. He looked at it, didn't find evidence of any faults or anything further that could be wrong. He did an Rc hardness test on the knife for me and sent me photos of the results, etc. He was very thorough testing it for me, confirmed it did indeed function as expected, resharpened it for me and sent it back out. This all happened relatively quickly, within a few days of receiving it, but I thought it was going to take much longer, so I bought another 3v BT4 while I was waiting. I'll probably give it to my brother or a friend sometime down the line.
I would absolutely recommend his knives to anyone who has been curious about them. They're easy to maintain on just a strop or a couple of strops with different grit compounds in the event you find yourself needing to put a fresh edge on it after too much use.
