seriously though lol... there in the bottom of the $7.90 Flat Rate box is batteries in their plastic cases vertically 9 rows... then at least 4 more sets on top... so 26 high amp batteries in a cardboard box... in the heat... in a mailbox lol

I thought about discharging them prior to shipping... but 26 batteries would take a long while on a 4 bay 1a discharge, charger...it does 2a discharge, but only in 2 slots, so same amount of time anyhoo ;)

Glad you got them... Kershaw was one of the first pocket knives that started it all for me... decent lil booger and designed by Rick Hinderer... which he makes some decent knives...

Please be careful with the Vtoku...its sharp
Quick update for @~Don~ , the VTOKU is back in the box (after I wiped the drool off) and the Kershaw is in my car. I like the Kershaw so much (the assisted opening ) that I couldn't help myself and bought a titanium coated one on ebay.

Might want to cancel that order...I can find you a great knife if you give me a dollar amount

OK you trouble maker, don't start on me....yet! It's bad enough you got me drooling over the WE and now knives.....The Kershaw was $25 shipped and would make a great gift for a friend of mine (and good practice on the WE130 when I get it)....but I'll keep this offer in mind:vino:

Max price $250 already selected the better steels, all are flippers...

Many many other knives can be had if the flipper part is removed

Which you can do by clicking the X on the filter at the top

It's an RNB, BX9 is still on the "one day" list for now. They are Nolli panels though, actually got them before the box itself!

I think the condensation we were seeing in that one pic was a fluke, went over this thing with a proverbial fine toothed comb before setting it up.

Why do you think I stay away from that place? I may be dumb, but I 'ain't stupid!
I had FB for literally a decade before I knew it could be used to further my vape gear addiction. And DIY eliquid addiction. And coffee addiction. And wet shaving gear addiction.

Maybe I should start looking at knives...

I recently made the mistake of joining a general vaping buy/sell/trade group and now I'm just kind of gawking in horror as people try to sell Smok Mags for over $100.

It's fascinating, in a slow-mo train wreck kind of way.

You mean like this? (Woot steel
) or the regular, garden variety damascus?
Not sure how this compares, but this it. The scales will be made from that block behind it.

That is WOW!.....Gotta go look for a second part time job:cry:.... Take a look at that clip, I just happened on it while looking for WE videos. I didn't know there was Damascus and DAMASCUS steel either. Hoping for Alzheimer's to forget all this and remain blissful in my ignorance:vino:

@~Don~, did you put the lanyards on the knives, or did you buy them like that?
And to keep it vape related, I'm alternating between a BB with MF bridge and 1.3 ohm EUC coil, Radius 60 with a Dvarw topper <~~~ MTL and a Vaporflask DNA133 with a Dvarw topper <~~~~restricted DL with a 2.5 mm air flow insert. The MTL Dvarw has a 8 wrap 2.0 mm ID 30/36 SS clapton and the DL (for me) has a fused clapton 8 wraps, 2mm ID.

I tied them... have a few hundred feet of the color ways you have on them... and a few other colors

That is great! Congratulations.
Been a good while since I won something in a raffle. Probably won't have it in hand for a couple of weeks since the scales still need to be made and fitted. I'll make sure to post some pics when it comes.

Gas City Vapes has the SXK USBBB in red for $95 and change for their Easter sale! Shipping from Canada sucks but it beats the hell out of waiting on China!

Did anyone ever solve the connection issue to make TC worthwhile? Can t remember what the bb 510 is called, but reportedly not stable enough for accurate TC. (Which would warrant a usb)

I don't think so. At least I didn't. Only use for the USB port to me was flipping the screen!
