All weekend.

Lil'Native Comp. Lock in S30V.
It's getting an awful lot of use, and is still looking like new after a couple of weeks !
With my luck, I usually scratch a new knife after like a day cutting cardboard or whatnot.

It was a RockJumper kind of day...

This morning it’s the kapara Stretch 2 SS, but I’m working on a couple/few bikes today so that will switch to either an efficient or para 3 lw once I hit the garage.

This afternoon and evening I have a physical therapy appt followed up by a surprisingly late evening MRI…no knives for either of those!!

I’m a physical therapist and love talking to my patients about knives! Well, the knife carrying ones that is haha


My carry for today

My new Canis.

Touched it up quick last night, was going to retire it for the week...just can't stay away! Nothing at all against the G10 Military, I had one for a while myself, but this one is just a whole different level. Feels so much more substantial in hand. Love this knife more than I imagined I would. Thanks again FK!!

Blends with my black vest nicely. MG2

It feels so weird being tempted by a Para 2. I thought I moved past the model years ago, but the wharncliffe seems perfect for a smaller blade. Still available too. Hmm.

Isn't there a Wharnie Endura? That would probably be more your style...though I honestly can't remember if I've ever seen you post an Endura. So maybe not your style at all!

Here is a poor shot comparing the Wharnie closed with my Lefty PM2 , just to give you some sort of idea how it fits in pocket . Personally I can’t tell a difference , and must say it’s growing me . Dan

Had one at one point. It's funny, the Pacific Salt is my most carried knife by a long shot but I have no Enduras and don't have any intereet in changing that. Tried many of them over the years including ZDP, VG10 CE saber, VG10 FFG, wharnie, SS Endura 3 SE and others.

It's not the same for me with the extra weight and ability to rust I guess.

I carried a Para 2 as a work knife for a few years and the wharnie version would work great for that role. Now that they coat the hardware there would be less corrosion happening too.

I'll probably stick to my Pacifics at work but you might see me post one of these someday

Native Salt!

That's a great color. Makes me think about dying the Magnacut Natives so I can keep them separate from the LC200Ns.

Thank you! I love it too. Racing Red Rit synthetic, for anyone curious. I had the same idea for the MC native actually, including the lighthearted monicker “Magma”Cut because of the red.

Looked at my EDC today as I was making some notes and realized it was kind of all over the place. Very far from achieving a theme.
Then it hit me, it was so diverse in materials that it almost seemed planned in all the materials represented;

Aluminum SAK with
Brass fob
FRN Chap
Bronze pen
Titanium flashlight
G10 ruler with
copper print

Great pair for trail walking

Grass us starting to green up... guess I should work on getting the mower ready sometime.

Native S110V.
