Spyderco Centofante III. This one does not get the attention it deserves. Razor sharp 3.125" hollow grind VG-10 with swedge, ultralight 2.5 ounces, and a thin, ergonomic profile that suits both the hand and the pocket. Excellent jimping provides good control for EDC. Its potential shortcomings - namely riveted construction and smooth scales - are overcome by its generous helping of utility, light weight, thin profile, Seki-City bloodline and major aesthetic appeal. Priced in the mid $40's if you do a little looking.
Got these in today.
Orange Military, Sante Fe Stoneworks cricket, a custom Police 3 regrind to mimic Michael Janich's Enduras. Blade is now 3 3/4" instead of 4 1/4". Much larger than the Janich Endura. Smoothed G-10 and a flamed Blue Titanium Pocket clip. Work done by Southard.
The other two are Custom Buck 110's. One is a Chip Flint that had the finger groves ground in a regular 110 by my request. The other is a Titanium liner with OD Green micarta. Screwed together with a Feather Damascus blade. The only thing left of a stock 110 is the back lock. I am going to carry this one.
White Micarta Jess Horn

Jan Dox Kiridashi (A2 steel, Orange G-10)
The White Horn has been my grail for probably 2 years now and I just snagged one. I'm so excited about it I had to show it off! Elegant, amazing ergos, slim blade, FFG, beautiful scales... What more could one possibly want? Ohhh, I'm sure I'll find something else.
I love my little Kiridashi as well. It's just such a unique little piece. I'm starting to really like Belgian designers.

Another long sought spydie arrived last saturday at my home, the C59BMP Shabaria. It's from the first production run with lovely micarta handles. I like it already a lot. :)

You must really like habeneros. Every time i see one of your knife pics I end up think "boy, I hope he did a good job drying that thing off before he put it away" :rolleyes:

Is that Kiridashi a folding model? That's sweet.
