@yo_mj:

I've been wondering. Where exactly does the numbering system for Iron Heart's come form? For example, what does 634 translate to and where did it come from. Also the lettering(s) after it, 634S and 634sr?

I am not sure about the numbering, never asked Haraki.  But S is selvedge and SR is Raw Selvedge.

Seriously, I loath facebook. It is a huge bore, but for some reason it is still around. I don't predict it to be as dominant as it has been until now but what the hell do I know…

+1 meh to Facebook.

On a separate note, can anyone recommend a nice brand of tabi toe socks please?

Thanks y'all

anyone have any advice on how to best wash the IH 20 flannel shirt to avoid shrinkage? i've waited about as long as i can wait.  its time.  i just dont want to ruin the fit because its perfect.

[nameness]

cold, hang dry.  if you want to avoid the spin cycle go for a hand wash.

Mrs G does mine at 40 Celsius and I have had no shrinkage…G

The new chic is soon going to be able to say: I shut down my FB page.

I'm almost tempted to reopen my own FB page just to start a "Fuck Facebooook" group, but at the same time, why even bother.

[Splattered]

haha yeah I did close down my myspace page that i had like for 5 or 6 years… i prob wont shut down my FB though, i moved away from all my friends n fam and would otherwise extremely rarely ever hear from them.

I shut down my FB account I had in my real name after a month or so.

Still don't really get the point of it, but at least this time I'm not bothered by people who used to know me when I was 6…

Somebody finally got the point this weekend and actually used the only piece of (contact)information I keep on my FB account, an email addtress.

I keep my knife clipped on the far right side of my right corner… At work, I'm always pulling it out, and clipping it back on, tens if not hundreds times a shift... Result:

Stitching already gone (634s, 6-8 weeks old, too lazy to look up)

Lining torn up

Anyone have a good suggestion as what to do?.. Knife is not gonna be worn anywhere else… Ta...

Well when you get the BB's it might be less of a problem…

Same with 07BKs (just started wearing my knife there, so the damage so far has been done quickly):

I know the BBs will have a secret knife pocket, but I won't be buying them Lando (soon)… Any other tips, perhaps?..

You can take the clip off, and polish the contact area underneath the clip. That will help a little bit

If you don't mind the way it looks, you can also polish down the contact areas on the knife that are wearing down your jeans

The last step is to get a pocket sheath or a belt sheath. Vess leatherworks in Canada does some nice work with Sebenza sheaths

Buy a pair of Vulcans - specs to be announced…...
