What happened? The damn thing is about one tenth the price of the authentic and it has a decent blade on it.
The Ontario rat in d2 is the only d2 blade I’d recommend

Would that be Ontario rat 1 or 2?

Up to you... which ever would suit you better... the Rat 1 is the large
past 12:30 am after working all day and two glasses of mead with dinner!
I still like my PM2s...open them just as quickly as a flipper...close with ease.

What blade steel?
That one was my S35VN, I also have one in 204p that is pretty much the same action.
Also...
Just to toss some sand on your knife "Hobby" now and since you like Kershaw's

The Dividend is the thinner one, but OoS
Hard to beat that for the price
Only thing is, I think it may be a tad on the pocket pig side.
DUUUDE! THAT SUCKS DONKEY BALLS!That one was my S35VN, I also have one in 204p that is pretty much the same action.

huh?
The regular Link sells for close to $50! I had one in my cart too but I was waiting for the e-bay auctions to end before buying it. I'm buying the Link from another place it is on sale for $69.95, I think I'll get another Amplitude too, they're nice, light small EDC. Thanks for pointing it out, I had forgotten to look them up! So many knives, so little time....
This is what I just bought! https://kershawguy.com/products-pag...nk-1776blk-special-m390-model-knife-assisted/Make sure its the M390 version like I linked
It does sound like it will be a bit on the heavy side, but I like them!
Nice pick up... M390 will last you a LONG time...great steel.

Dude! I'm starting to look like a chemo patient! All the arm hair is gone and I've been contemplating the leg hair
. It's almost gone on my arms, starting to grow in patches and my mom's damn cat runs every time I get close to it!
So now I'll have two M390 knives coming next week and my play money allotment is just about gone (till next payday ).
Slow down hot rod!
Says the guy who has a CRK ordered direct...
Nice thing about that is, have 6 months to save up for it lol
Pray tell! They take installments?
This hot rod is pulled over for the time being
No... but they have a back log and depending on the knife, custom graphics or in my case the Impinda... it normally is 4-6 months...and the Impinda is 6-8 right now
HMmmmmmm!!!! I HAVE to get the landscaping finished and that is one hell of a lot of money even with the drip irrigation system installed. I will definitely have to think on this though.
Impinda...
Most knives from CRK are readily available, except for the Impinda... Tim Reeve on FB has said he is really far behind on them. A few here and there pop up for sale between 400-425... might as well order an unadulterated one BNIB for a few bucks more.
But CRK has purchased a few more machines to help the automation and their production...
Really curious what the hot new new is going to be for Shot Show 2019 and the 2020 release year.... He mentioned he has a new folder in the works being tested.
That's a slip joint and doesn't lock either (I had to read the description on their site), you're going waaay back old skool on that one. I'll have to wait and see what's coming up next.
Indeed its a slippy...
I don't exert enough pressure in a way to cause it to fold back... and many things about it I really like.
I still will probably pick up a small Inkosi pj
Personally, I can be the poster child for Klutz of the World United (sometimes) so I feel much better when there is a blade lock. That is one of the main reasons I use the Opinel hawkbill in my gardening attempts, all the others I found didn't have a blade lock though I didn't look very hard (meaning above $30).
I get that.
I just never worried much about that happening, blades are meant to be cutting one direction, not like I would use it in a twisting manner.
Guess that is also why I like fixed blade knives ...
And that is another animal in the knife game with endless styles and blade steels...at a much much cheaper price point also

Not to derail the knife thread 
but I'm thinking about a SXK Bantam Box instead trying to find a pod-style device that actually vapes well.
Gas City has them available for $85 after conversion with shipping included

I think thread derails are expected on this one. Is the Bantam the SXKBBMINIME? I'd be interested on your thoughts on it. What battery do they take, do you know?Not to derail the knife thread

It's basically a 18350 BB. 30 watts max, takes a normal size Boro, and the display is on top of the box next to the drip tip.
I'll probably sell a couple things to fund one.

It was $168 for the one I got Trevor...but he ordered the glass tank, bograt, drip tip, air flow discs
Holler if you want me to join a few lists for you also Jim.
There is no risk of both of us landing...if it happens, I’ll just either nab it for myself or let it pass in the cart.

Cool...
Only down fall it will run you $7.90 more than regular cost, since it will be shipped to me first
And total cost depends if you’re wanting to pay the DHL shipping or wait up to a month on the slow boat route.
I had Trevor Paypal me the cost+2 day flat rate. And I mailed it yesterday to him after it arrived at 2:55pm
I was teasing him half the day...
“Ooh I hear a delivery truck!”
Nope was ups...
Ooh another truck...
Nope was FedEx

I know you do, you told me what set you got from FT. The parts fit and the only difference I found, besides finish is the airflow inserts are shaped differently.Got one of those bad boys already

When you sharpen the point of a blade, don’t go past the point, naturally the pressure of the movement will cause you to roll over it and round it...bring the stones half way over the tip
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Also think you need to move the knife forward a bit more in the jaws...the heel of the grind looks closer to 20-21* where when you move towards the point the bevel probably gets closer to your 18 
Looks good though for only sharpening a hand full of knives
