@bagley920:

What's so tactical about a tactical pen?  :-\

most of them are designed to be used as striking tools in a self defense situation.

Hence why they're so strikingly ugly…

I actually like some of the benchmade ones, industrial, non-nonsense design. Not even close to being in the same division (or meant to be) as more dainty pens of course.

Oh, and:

Guess they're a hit or a miss…

I think tac.pens are meant to be used like kubotan. and now YOU use google. I'm not going to write an article here.

[bagley920]

i know what a kubotan is, but in pen form, just not sure how effective it would actually be

[injunjack]

can you guess them all?

I can do 6 out of 8.  Bottom right and 3rd from top on the left have me stumped, though.

[unharmed]

Third from top on left is Asterix and Obelix but  don't know the bottom right one.

[FurattoHeddo]

^Bottom right one is Lucky Luke and the Daltons

Ah, no wonder I came up blank.  Never heard of either of them; guess I'm not up to speed on my French comics characters.

so let's say I have an item that I want to sell, and I go check out the wtb board, is there an easier/better way to find if anyone wants the item I have than going through everyone's unique wtb thread? not a problem if there's just a handful of threads there but once the wtb board gets it's going to be unreasonable to navigate everyone's unique thread. And sure I'll glance at folks wtb list when they post it but I may not remember who's after what when I'm staring my closet someday and thinking damn I'm out of control and I decide to part with a thing or two.

Maybe someone has a good suggestion how to handle this? Is there a way to search this that I'm not thinking of? My thought, use a hashtag, like #wtb and put that in your post along with the item name(s) you want. At least that way I could use the forum search function, search the hashtag and the item number and easily find any wtb posts. For instance thomas just posted up a list of flannels he's after but if I go search wtb ihsh-11 his post doesn't come up. And I can't limit a search to the wtb board only.

Any other ideas? Am I thinking about this the wrong way? I just know it's frustrating if folks post up wtb lists, and stuff on their list gets put up for general sale and they miss out; I mean our goal ought to be easily matching up sellers with folks after their stuff.

Good point Jaco.
I think everyone should adopt what Thomas and Cris have been doing. Listing the items their looking for as a signiture.

[Finn666]

jaco nice idea…so everyone needs to post the real item names in their wtb list so that everyone who uses the search function can track them down and make it easier to find'em!

or is it possible to just create a "wtb (no chat)" thread without all that chit chat going on so the thread stays clean so everyone can post their list and is able to find things that others wtb a bit easier! everyone's allowed to post their list only "once" though (only can be modified!)…

Was reading the WAYWT thread and it struck me.

How do we go about getting IH shorts anyhow? Do we just purchase a Bottom and ask Mr.G to butcher them for us?

It's called Chopped and Chained.  But yes….
