      Btw, rumor has it that the Blue Ripple with Stainless handles is going to be retired. No reason behind it, it's been a great seller.

        @zhivago:

        Microtech might be worth checking out…

        Microtech's warranty is famously shitty

        Good to know, a buddy of mine just gave me one as gift a while back, haven't handled it a whole lot because I'm not to into autos but I know they are U.S.A. made and seemed decent enough the little I did handle it. Thanks for the info Doug!

            Hit me up if you need to ship to my house and then I'll ship to yours. NYC has become a nanny state, and has really cracked down on knife sales

            Kershaw is usually better to get through Amazon because of their warranty policy. I usually go though Knifeworks.com, Knifecenter.com, or Newgraham.com when I can't go through Amazon for production knives. GPKnives.com also has good prices but I've never shopped through them

            Thanks for all the suggestions.

            I'll let you know if I need any more help, Doug.

              This is the most accurate as far as color that I've seen of the Ripple. This one is the Ripple 2, but you get the idea. My camera won't pick up the colors right for some reason

                I ended up getting a Kershaw Cryo and a Kershaw Scallion with a red anodized aluminum handle for $66.66 shipped. Maybe a carbon fiber blur or G10 leek will be next.

                  I'm not the biggest fan of the Scallion, it's fucking tiny. The Cryo is really nice

                  The only problem with the Cryo is that…eventually you'll want a bigger Hinderer...=)

                  Check out the Zero Tolerance 0560 🙂

                      Yeah, I just wanted a smaller knife, really dont own one. Maybe I'll wait for the Cryo II…

                                  Special thx to Eli. I found a 25oz worthy knive to carry around 🙂

                                  Please don't take this as criticism, but I really don't understand the whole knife-carrying 'thing'.

                                  I'm just a peace-loving dude who grew up in a peaceful place and time, so it baffles me why so many people take knives around with them. In any case, it's illegal here as well.

                                  Help me understand the interest.

                                  BTW, some awesome looking pics here lately.

                                    The problem is that you only see a knife as a weapon. It's not. It's a tool. It's man's oldest tool.

                                    If you don't need a knife, don't carry one. But at least in my day to day life, I use it to open boxes, letters, cut tape, cut bindings, dig things out of hard to reach places (gravel out of my boot/splinter out of my hand), cut food (and I work in an office, not a blue collar job or anything particularly outdoorsy). I use mine all the time. I get particularly annoyed when another guy asks to borrow mine. For me, being a man means being prepared for what life throws at you. A knife is a good tool to make other improvisational tools as well.

                                    Hell, even my wife keeps a small one in her purse, and I routinely have to sharpen it for her

                                    There's a saying around here "If you're wearing pants, you've got a knife in your pocket"

                                      Doug, I'm the same way. I feel naked if I don't have a knife. It's as if I'm not ready for what life might toss my way.

                                      Fat dudes need good clothes too.

                                          RnR, I really wasn't into carrying knifes like a year ago or so…looking back at that time and looking at the time now, carrying one, I really have to say that I don't want to miss my knife one single day anymore!
                                          it really comes in just way too handy since it's the perfect tool to help you through the different situations a day has to offer (check Doug's post!)...so when i sometimes find myself without my knife, i have to say that i somehow feel "naked"...it's just a weird feeling to me! may sound a bit weird but yeah, that's the case 🙂
