Anyone here familiar with the James Brand Elko knife? What do you think of it?

Happy Birthday!

Benchmade doesn't run their steels hard enough, very often. Performance suffers. The biggest thing for me is that they have this weird fixation on blade to handle ratio where the blade and handle need to be as equal in length as possible. It looks attractive, but is a bad idea as there is usually no...

The Cold Steel Mini Pendleton seems to be a good option for an alternative to an Izula. The Fallkniven R2 Scout (3.16") would be a good choice. So, too, would be the WM1 (2.75"Elmax) and the pocket carry only Kolt (3.35").

SEF!!! Man, it's been too long. I'm glad you resurfaced.

What do you call a cow with only two legs?

What's worse than raining cats and dogs?

What's the best way to catch a squirrel?

Thank you very much!

Thank you, I appreciate the wishes.

Nobody knows. We hope later this year, but I don't think Golden is in full swing, yet, since the expansion. I don't even know if they have finished the expansion and they are behind on a lot of promised models. We just have to be patient.

For me, a fixed blade, like a Mora, with a 4" blade is good enough for a knife, though a camp knife for large food prep can be okay. I prefer a machete for site prep and trail clearing, a folding saw for wood, and a small hand axe (which can be an effective defense tool, also).

I would far and away rather have 14C28N than 52100. Same toughness, better edge retention, and it is stainless. Umm 🤔 both please 🙏 Been want a quality heat treated 14C28N Spyderco knife for a long time. I also had no clue Spyderco made a knife with 52100 steel. I’ve kind of fallen in love with kni...

Thanks, Gernot. I appreciate it.

Yep. Told you so. AI cannot be trusted.

In honor of 486000: Two friends were riding along on a tandem bicycle when, suddenly, the one at the front slammed on the brakes, hopped off and began letting air out of the tyres. “Hey!” the one at the back said. “What are you doing that for?!” “My seat was too high. I wanted to lower it a bit,” th...

Remember, a person is not required to be able to read or be of even average intelligence to work for the TSA.

Thank you all! I appreciate it.

They hire the dumbest people to work for TSA. Nobody above the IQ of 60 need apply.

I've had that happen a couple of times and always at the most inopportune time. I had to wait until the fraud prevention department opened and then get them to remove the block on my card. But by then I wasnt able to buy one of the things I needed. Once, this happened with a store I shop at all the ...
