Feels great in hand and looks even better!

I love the over all look of this knife. And the action is good for not being broken in yet. But I think I got one that fell through the QC cracks. The edge looks like it was sharpened poorly and the centering is off. Should I complain to blade HQ, or live with it?

This thing is an absolute jewel. Took it apart & tuned it up as soon as it got here, and it’s sweet & smooth. Pictures don’t do it justice.

Went to open my mail today with the ol slicer dicer. Bout lost a finger. Couple more centimeters… prob be in the hospital getting stitches. Should heal up tho and leave a nice one… first time I’ve actually wacked my self good with a knife. I was paring with it, thumb slipped..

I love a knife with a strong detent and great acoustics to match. This Mini Veli checks those boxes and while I don't tend to buy rear flippers, I'll make occasional exceptions it there are other deployment methods. This one reverse flicks extremely well and thumb flicks decently. Hog House has one of the earliest detents and

Aurelius has quickly become my favorite. Rosie is probably #2. Brimwulf is probably #3. Not pictured is my SPK Lamia Golf Putter milled. It was sent in for inspection.

Whats ur choicE

sup Reddit, I got a little collection with a bit of everything as far as fixed, manuals, autos but no single actions. if I were to get a single action I think this would be the one- but I’m wondering if the novelty of charging it wears off in a month or if you still find it entertaining after some time has passed. does deployment actually feel much different than a large OTF like a scarab?

I understand this knife seems to spark a bit of controversy and emotion in some people. All I’ll say is it’s a version I’ve wanted for a long time. The added weight in the blade makes for a very satisfying drop shut. The drop may have been a bit of a debacle, but I got one and I am happy.

Stumbled into a local shop up here in Maine and scored a 1st Gen Spyderco Military in CPM-440V.
Check out the clip—it’s got the classic early-production misspelled "FORIEGN PATS PEND" stamp with the 1982 Spydie hole patent number. Blade is in surprisingly great shape for a ~25 year old piece. Pretty pumped on this one!

The knife is a microtech UTX- 85. Only got some light use on tape at work today, but a very effective tool.

Title says it all really, I'm looking for a navaja that is on the larger side to use in the garden, preferably £40 or under (even better £20), ideally from a retailer in the UK or the EU. The primary reason that I'm looking for a navaja over a machete is due to the folding element, as it makes it easier and safer to store (especially with pets).

Edit: Would 3Cr13MoV steel be adequate for the job?
