Just got this last week from a local knife maker - Humble Blades. It's a 1095 Carbon steel chef knife with Lager G10 handles, Tiffany blue and black G10 liners.

Damn that's hot af, @Clint_D  ???

I really, really dig how the handle's been shaped.

My everyday knife. Benchmade Griptillian.

I recently bought a new fixed blade knife. It's not an ultra expensive, high quality one, but I do like the Designer (Torbe Custom Knives) and this collab was simply much more affordable then his original works.

Also I found out that it is actually illigal to carry my trusted old Benchmade folder here in Germany (which I do since almost 20 years). Frigging wankers that made weapon laws are incompetence in person. I could carry that Real Steel monster, but not the Benchmade folder.

Loving that Benchmade, @Cole. I've had one for many years – impressive build quality.

I just dug this Lakota out from my knife drawer and polished it up. Come to find out, Lakota went under many years ago. What a bummer. Such a lovely knife even though it has a mirror polish which isn't much to my liking.

Thanks, @henry_david . The Benchmade is realy a piece of art and the best build knive I ever had (I'm not a knive nut, so that doesn't mean much  ).

@Cole Those Osbourne designed benchmades are a really great, a real case of form and function working together.  Super compact and easy to carry, and yet a lot of blade for the size.  I had one with a coated blade and didn't really like the coating so I sold it (I am a knife nut, and we tend buy and sell knives like nothing).

Knife laws are the worst.  Being in the US, we actually have a pretty easy time but there are still some states/cities that have silly laws that seem to be written by someone who doesn't even understand how a folding knife is built.

Any recs for a leathr sheath maker? I wanna snag an aftermarket one for the knife above that's got a horizontal orientation.

You must be referring to San Francisco, @tvenuto  I live there and it's ridiculous. I want to own an OTF however that'd practically make me a felon!

[tvenuto]

Ha I actually wasn't referring to any one place in particular, but I (did) travel a bit and it was always a pain to try to decipher knife laws where I was going.  I'm lucky that in MD most jurisdictions don't have length limits on folding knives, but they make up for it with other dumb stuff.

Snagged a little horizontal pull sheath from Texas. Digging it.

[henry_david]

Just began carrying this again after many years of not doing so. Phill Hartsfield, Sr. kozuka made with A2. What I didn't know is that Hartsfield influenced Emerson and helped Emerson get his first special ops contract, etc.

Either way, I adore this thing.

[scarfmace]

That thing is awsome!
