The Enigma Pocket Probe by RB Tool & Design. I purchased in 2017 and haven't seen them make a rerun. They always show sold out online. We'll made leather slip was included.

Its indeed one of my grails. Not only for its rarity but because it comes from my beloved Brother. :beaming-face
He owned this one for years without me ever knowing it apperently. :exploding-head

Cleaning up after the sand storm Friday I just thought I would try this shot. I am taking a cool off break in the shade of my pine and cedar trees.

The wind really messed up alot of limb on my place, been cleaning on it all weekend.

Edit: my phone just won't take a pic with enough resolution in it that you can read the knife tang after the pic gets posted here on the forum.

I can see this well enough on the phone, it just doesn't make the transfer to the forum well enough. I got to up grade my old Samsung Galaxy to the newer model lol.

Yeah, unfortunately it's because of the image upload to this site specifically, it's limited in size, so the resolution isn't great.
So good news is it's probably not your phones fault so you don't need a new one, but, unfortunately it means if you want to post higher resolution photos on this forum then you have to start an account with a third party photo hosting site then copy and paste the link here as an img link. I used to use Photobucket but then they held all the photos hostage and asked for a payment years ago. Now I use Flickr and it's free. It's kind of cumbersome, just extra steps, but it's how you have to do it to minimize the load on the Spyderco server, but still show high res photos here. I'd be posting way more photos daily on here if it wasn't for that extra step.

I like this shot, just simply a pleasing layout, featuring the classic Delica!



That was a tough week to judge! Awesome to see so many members submitting great captures for the thread. I could comment what I like on each photo, but really just had to pick 2 here and it took a lot of scrolling back and forth before deciding. There were a few others that were close to grabbing it... But I won't say who! Let's just keep that momentum rolling into this upcoming week!
