The notifications are not guaranteed. Like today I didn't get an alert, I just stumbled by here and seen it was in stock, and it was there for several minutes, longer than normal.

This is my first Shaman - so I didn't know if I'd hang on to this one or not, but I took it out of the box and gave it one look and a flick before it went in my pocket. Love it! The smooth G10 is great, but the edges are almost as sharp as the blade. Sure wish they'd smooth them out a bit. That'd be my only real gripe.

I received mine today, from the pics I've seen I was hoping it would be a match for the original Rex45 Sprint, like the Manix2 or Lil' Native are, but it's sorta in between the FRN and the first Sprint . . .

It takes less than a minute with some 1200 or 600 grit wet/dry silicon carbide paper to "dehorn" the edges.WRB wrote: ↑Thu Jun 18, 2020 2:12 pmThis is my first Shaman - so I didn't know if I'd hang on to this one or not, but I took it out of the box and gave it one look and a flick before it went in my pocket.

Huh, that had not occurred to me, I wouldn't think it would change the colour that much but it's the only smooth G10 of the lot, so I suppose it's as good an answer as any.
Colour aside, fit and finish are great, action is perfect, excellent edge out of the box, just stropped it and it's on point, and I almost always sharpen any knife first thing.

That’s what I’m planning on doing, just wish they’d do it for me :DTucson Tom wrote: ↑Mon Jun 22, 2020 6:14 pmIt takes less than a minute with some 1200 or 600 grit wet/dry silicon carbide paper to "dehorn" the edges.

Awesome collection JMM. I like that it is balanced
(4 DLC and 4 Satin). It soothes my OCD. lol

But what if he lined them up alternating dlc and satin for each knife!?!? :pEric*the*Red wrote: ↑Tue Jun 23, 2020 6:09 pmAwesome collection JMM. I like that it is balanced

Thanks for this pic, JMM. :spyder:
I see three clips, that I have not tried yet.
From left to right. #2, #4, and #7.
If you would please, and when you have a spare moment. Send me a PM with details on those. I'd love to give them a try. :)
