My love for Japanese knives is up there with my love for their denim!

I’d be lucky to be able to carry a butter knife around here without being searched and arrested

Just got my Erling ScandiBuster back with the clip installed. Really glad Birger decided to offer this upgrade for previously purchased knives. I’ll be sending my other one in next week.

Gift wrapping. Thought I’d snap a couple of my favorite carry knife. Maxamet PM3 with micarta handles and a MXG titanium clip

I’ve always wanted a small blade I can carry every day and this one fits the bill perfectly. It’s a Microblade from WESN based out of Detroit Michigan. This one is the blacked out model and at first look seems to be really well made. The natural leather sheath is a nice touch as well and should age and absorb indigo nicely. Glad to have something nice I can keep on hand for all the random stuff dads need a knife for.

Not happy... I've opened this thread 5 minutes ago and now I'm shopping for knives.

@Jord I have something in the post you'll enjoy!

Edit: In the post to me at IHUK, from a knife maker. In case that wasn't clear

Over many years of using knives I settled on Spyderco in the main. My daily carry are the bottom four - UKPK and urbans, UK legal carry. I don't often use the middle line - often drawer queens but I rate them all as decent knives, lookers and users.
The top knife is my favourite work tool (I'm an outdoors practitioner, Ranger type) a Fjallkniven F1. Made for pilots but great for bushcraft. This is my spare one... Regular use knife is a bit battered.
Most of my Spydies I've given new scales as you can see I have other knives but don't want to reach too far down that particular rabbit hole...

my new letter-opener…

[Jord]

@AdamJ Haha yes I knew what you meant! I'm interested to see pics when it arrives

[nurunuru]

@Makarwise UK knife law is just crazy. On my list of "cons" for ever moving back to Blighty

[Makarwise]

@nurunuru Yep. Mostly just silly. The suits don't understand knives as the majority won't have any history of using them. Bans and legislation generally make it harder for tool users - a knife for crime just needs to be pulled out of any kitchen block.

Giving the autos a drink

And after 10 minutes on the wicked edge, the Benchmade Narrows is a light saber once again

New knife day yesterday, there is a store here called KNifewear that sells Japanese knives mostly, they were running a program to trade in your old Japanese knife for a gift card worth 50% of the current value of it, so traded in my Fujimoto Nashiji for a Shiro Kunimitsu Bunka, maybe not a 1 for 1 trade in size but after using it last night a smaller Bunka (160mm) is a nice replacement for a petty
