EZB, which knives from Amsterdam caught your interest? BTW, I'm looking for just the right piece of Timascus for a little project that I'm going to have Alex Dietz work on for me. Bad timing though since makers are snatching up materials for Blade Show knives. I'll give myself at least a month...

Just an FYI. GP Knives dropped the pre-order price of the ZT 0620CF to $202.50. I had already placed an order with Blade HQ because they were the first ones to make pre-ordering available back in January. MAP is $240. They required a non-refundable payment of $5. I emailed them and they agreed...

Ended up scoring a Benchmade Triage (915BK-ORG) from Amazon when they momentarily dropped the price to $121. Good thing I had a price alert set up. I had to jump on it after all the MAP pricing crap that Benchmade is forcing now. It's listed at $156 from Amazon.com now. Also, this is shipped...

ZT0620CF, 0562CF, and possibly others available for preorder on BladeHQ. Might be available on other sites as well, but BHQ was the only site that allowed me to set an email notification. Now, go! BTW, I'm going for the 0620CF since I've been wanting to try an Emerson for a while as well as...

I'm definitely drooling over the ZT 0620CF. The 0562 CF looks cool, but it's a bit too similar to the 0561 that I already have. My priority is on diversifying my collection right now so I can try new features and designs. I had recently been looking at Emerson. The ZT collab is nice because it...

Crap. Maybe I spoke too soon about pausing the knife buying. Some nice stuff being intro'd at SHOT. Kershaw/ZT is releasing tons of new stuff. 2014 is going to be a good year! Of particular interest are some new Hinderer and Emerson collabs. Yes, Emerson! New knife details are making their way...

Not sure about all local laws, but it appears that the state law is based on types of knives rather than size. The type definitions aren't all that specific either if they're even defined at all.

I totally feel the same way about the Hinderer knives. His collabs with Kershaw/ZT offer so much value that I currently don't see the need to pay twice as much or more to get an XM-18 or XM-24. There's a few knives I've been looking at recently, but probably best to put knives on hold since I...

I've really been trying to like Benchmade. I have the flipper which is excellent build quality and durability, but a bit heavy for the length of blade. I also have the Nimravus fixed blade with desert sand scales which I like a lot. It does appear, however, that the enforcement of MAP might push...

I should've known better than to check this thread. I'm away for months and I stop here one time and end up ordering the Knifeworks Exclusive Spydero Manix 2XL with CPM-S90V steel and carbon fiber peal ply scales. I also randomly picked up a Cold Steel Recon 1 XL...just because. My main...

I'll preface my statements by saying that I have a 2011 Ford Raptor. People keep saying that the Ecoboost gets better mpg. This really depends on how you use the truck. The Ecoboost will post great mpg numbers while unloaded all day long especially on the highway. If you, however, tow or haul...

I don't have a problem with the concept of purchasing through a dealership. I do, however, have a problem with the ability to mark prices up above MSRP and the fact that 99% of salespeople know absolutely nothing about the product they're selling. Plus, the fact that many dealership service...

Some good brands listed above. I've used FourSevens, Fenix, Klarus, Streamlight, and HDS Systems. Currently EDC a Fenix E15 and an HDS Systems High CRI Clicky. Both are single CR123. I keep a larger dual CR123 Fenix in the truck along with a few extra batteries. Whether you go CR123, AA, or...

From speaking with a probation and parole officer, a deferred sentence is still a sentence even though they're out and about. This offender is a felon until they are past their discharge date, and/or the judge has expunged their record. Since they are still a currently sentenced felon all...

They can't put you to sleep because you must actively focus on a specific point for the laser to be accurate. The laser system monitors the position of your eye and stops the machine automatically if your eye isn't 100% in the correct position. It can also use eye tracking to compensate for...

Running the stock BFG AT KO's on my truck. They are great on dry pavement and did well in dirt and sand. They're absolutely horrible on wet pavement. I lightly get on the gas and they spin badly from a stop or sharp turn. Based on that, I'm looking to switch to Goodyear Duratracs...only after I...

I remember that place. It's a shame he had to shut it down after the ice storm. They had great burgers.

When does the President get his furlough notice and when do we start seeing cuts aimed at Obamacare? Oh wait, that would be silly. I forgot that bullying is where you only pick on the little guy.

To back up what some have said here, I'll recount what was explained to me in my SDA class. The attorney present in my class explained that the basic interpretation of the SDA was that when you utilize deadly force on behalf of another person you take on all the rights and responsibilities of...

This! I was in college in '08 and on a "college budget", but I still bought a case or more of .40S&W and still have some of that left. Watching ammo prices constantly headed in an upward trajectory, I always keep some supply of every caliber I shoot with an emphasis on those calibers that I...
