Re: October and Rex45
I realized October is almost over and I haven't carried this pair yet!
Re: October and Rex45
I carried this one on a seven day backpacking trip the week before last (AT through the Smokies end to end). It was strenuous and plenty sweaty. It got a few pepper marks on the blade, which would likely have been worse if I had not wiped it down with Vaseline before the trip.

A beautiful fall morning. About 37 degrees out though!

Stunning! That patina just from normal use or from certain objects?

Butter and steak! Not sure which specifically lends the blue. I take a salted strip steak and flash fry it medium rare in a pan with half a tablespoon of butter and that's the effect it has on both Rex45 and K390.

Re: October and Rex45
I posted this over in the K390 thread, but felt like I needed to get in on the Rextober love before the time passed.
This is definitely my subdued Earthy PM2 fall lineup...

One more just for Rextober...probably the only opportunity I will get to post this pic.
So it goes.
Re: October and Rex45
Miss my Rex45!! Kick myself for getting rid of it. Thought it was going to become the hot new steel and haven't seen it since :o

Re: October and Rex45
That was not your original post...you're a big fan of post edits I see...you just edited both of your replies to two different posts of mine in two different threads. Stop being a troll.
So it goes.

Those are definitely some of the coolest scales I've ever seen. He doesn't post this knife often, but when he does... *drools*

Re: October and Rex45
I had a few Rex45 knives and sold them as my taste in models has evolved. I hope they do another round of Burnt Orange Rex45 sprints in some different models. The Manix LW, and Native LW would be great. Especially in DLC.
