View Full Version : OT>Birthday Choice Arrived!!!
Well the 25th birthday gods smiled upon young CKE and allowed him to buy the Strider SNG he has been eyeing for some time. Next will be a <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> purchase for sure but I had to test the Strider waters. I can't say anything bad about this knife. It is a behemoth, double choils, G-10, Ti, S30V. It really is a quality blade. Thats an understatement. Anywho sorry to post such filth here<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0><img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>, Take Care and hope you guys are having a great weekend.
CKE,
I only know of Striders by reputation (and from reading LOTR). I post once in a while on Delta Zs so we're in the same filthy mess there. <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Glad you got a good knife on your birthday! Give us a review and comparision once you break her in!

Happy Day of your Birth! Celebrate! Drink! Dance! Sing!
Nothing like the gift of Steel.Enjoy your new blade.

Happy BD CKE <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
CKE, happy b-day, and congrats on the Strider!!
It's going to take a few days to break in. Open/close it a few hundred times (I'm not being funny here), and it will lighten up and smooth out quite a bit.
I had to send mine back to have the locking bar adjusted, and now it's amazingly solid.
You said the SnG is a behemoth, eh?! Try an AR or a GB! The SnG is small, dude, trust me!
Which SnG is it, the Generation 5?

Happy Birthday and congratulations on your present. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Variety is the spice of life and knives are no exception.
I am a Spyderco fan but I am glad that there are other brands that also make some damn fine knives. I'd hate to see a Microsoft of the knife industry <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

jim> it is a Gen 5. Picked it up from Blueline Gear. Great place to deal with and close to T Bay too. Yea I know it is a baby compared to the AR/GB. Thought it would be the better EDC choice for now<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Take Care!!!

Happy Birthday!
From what I read about the Strider you'll probably enjoy it.
Tell us if you do in a little review later on, please.
