I just looked at both Julia.
I really like the F3 better.
Julia, what's your favorite Shiro?

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
They're both in stock at Recon 1 right now!
I think for me it's a tie between this F3 NS with it's contoured scales and the F95R NL, which also has contoured scales and beautiful fat carbon fiber inlays. If they made a smaller version of this new 111, I'd be all over it - it is gorgeous! But at like 4.4" it's too big for me. I'd also really like to find one of the discontinued alutex Hatis.

Paul, I don't know if you use the facebook knife groups, but I see these F3s pop up in the Shiro group for good prices from time to time. I bet they come up on the BF exchange and reddit, too, although I never use those.

Building the wife a farmhouse table this weekend for the cost of screws, hardware, and stain. Lumber was sourced from my FIL’s mill. :)

Wow Josh, you REALLY know what your doin bro.
That's gonna look fantastic
Please, keep us posted. I wish I had skills like that.
Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
The more i try to get into other brands the more I keep running back to spyderco. The spydie hole is a powerful thing... I just can't get into thumbstuds or flipper tabs. But I will continue to live vicariously through y'all and your knives

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Yeah, I sold a lot of my collection and consolidated it into some higher end stuff. It's been a lot of fun, but I'll always love my Spydies best!

Spartan Harsey today, trying to finish the wife’s table today. (That’s the bottom of the table top, need to stain the top and fasten it to the legs still.)
