None, I’m in Londen now. Stupid knife laws...
Glad when I’m back in the Netherlands

The first very sad thing is, that even here in Austria one can read a lot about that in London there is a horrific knife crime epidemic (so that over 300 pubs and bars have even been given bleed control kits).
And the second sad thing is, that this situation occurs despite of or totally uneffected by that stupidly strict British knife laws..

While here in Austria, where one can carry whatever knife he or she likes, there are very few knife crimes (and also not more than in the cultur-wise very similar neighbour country Germany, with its again strict laws).

I mean, it is so obvious again and again that strict knife laws do absolutely nothing to prevent knife crimes, but just hinder honest, "good" and law abiding people to fully enjoy a great and peacefull hobby...

I will just say that we humans seem to be driven by fears and unfortunately many of our fears are irrational. One of the many flaws of the human condition.

I tend to favor the belief that a well armed society is a polite society. ;)

Thanks! I've been playing around with higher grit finishes the past couple weeks. It's fun for a change and so far I really like the performance. I have been maintaining the edge with a 3 micron diamond basswood strop.

And that's a replacement clip. ;) The first one caught on a protruding piece of metal at work and snapped it off cleanly. Hardly felt anything, just heard a loud ping and it was gone.

This one is a #9 and it has been good to me. I carry it quite a bit.
