Are those the ones in SK5 steel? Been curious for awhile but haven’t grabbed one.vivi wrote: ↑Sun Aug 20, 2023 8:59 pmSome SRK's and an SRK-C.
Black and green are my favorite colors. Today I found out cold steel makes SRK's and SRKC's in that color combo.
I've beaten the **** out of my blacked out ones, they're tough. Couldn't resist grabbing a few of these, especially for the price. $33 and $37 for the compact and full size, respectively.
Very good knives for the $$. They make great beaters.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Yep. Pretty tough and really easy to sharpen. Nice budget carbon steel from my use.
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I have another Stinger coming from Ferrum Forge. I already have a liner lock Stinger with green G10. They have a good sale on for National Knife Day. So I ordered the Ti Button Lock version in blue
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
That stinger sure is a good looking blade !
I went the opposite route and finally got a Swiss champ inbound. My inner 10 year old is so freakin excited.

Welp, I cannot wait to get this Busse Combat CS STAC7! I believe the Blue Kryptek Neptune was done by Blown Deadline.
Talked with one of the ladies at the mother ship & she said it was her favorite design...said they do blades in both blue and green.
Also said it was so much cooler I person. Said the colors fade in and out. Really excited about this one. Gonna have David Brown make me a Mutant Sheath in the same pattern.
Well, here it is..

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I already have a Lionspy, so I was hoping to find an SR11 (flipper, on bearings) but the price was right.
Really looking forward to trying out the steel.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I have a couple sheaths from David Brown that are in the blue Kryptek Neptune pattern. It is one of my absolute favorite camos. Only the TrueTimber stuff gives it a run, and I have a couple TT Strata sheaths from David Brown too which is just the coolest!MacLaren wrote: ↑Wed Aug 30, 2023 10:47 amWelp, I cannot wait to get this Busse Combat CS STAC7!

Btw, just found another Busse in the Kryptek Neptune- a P&L Statement! I went ahead and ordered it too.
Here's a pic. Should go very well with my SJTAC7
Oh, & btw again, would also love to see the True Tinber sheaths as well please
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I believe that I actually owe you quite a few pictures. I was supposed to take pics of my Busse AFBM and something else you've asked me to before, and each time I've been lame and not remembered lol. I'm gonna try to remember to take pictures of them all tomorrow morning and post them up.MacLaren wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2023 7:16 pmAwesome!

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
after buyin a couple Busse's -NSF letters from the bank, that's what's probably in the mail
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
never posted a picture of this after it came in
Ended up getting just the compact but I'm probably going to order the full sized soon. Found em for $30, that's a steal.
I recently compared a bunch of different fixed blades for making feather sticks and other simple wood carving tasks. My $30 stripped user SRKC with a thinned out primary grind and reprofiled edge held its own in terms ergonomics and cutting performance right along my customs and nicer fixed blades in the $80-200 range.
Very nice series of knives for the $$. For the price I don't mind modding the **** out of them and using them hard. They've held up to some rough work with nothing more than minor edge rolling.
