People coming to the 2015 meet

#1

Post by DutchBlades »

I know it's a bit sad to start a thread for this...
But I was wondering if there's anyone coming to the 2015 meet who owns a Mini Mariner.
Not trying to buy/trade via a thread, just want to see it on other things than pictures.

Hopefully some of you own one and can understand the grail-knife-sickness that makes me start this thread :p
A tiger has claws.
A wolf has teeth.
An eagle has talons.
We, have Spyderco.

I assume there isn't someone who owns one... Too bad, but it'll be a great day nonetheless :D

Sorry, don't have a Mini-Mariner.
But I could bring along the Ti ATR, the Phoenix and the SpyKer from your grail list, if you'd like to see them.
Plus some gems from the "Golden Age":
The micarta goddesses Calypso jr., Shabaria, JD Smith, Viele, Zowada and perhaps even an original Starmate, a Ti Herbst or a C22 Klötzli Walker.

Please do so Marcus :D
Would be great to be able to hold them and look at them thru my eyes instead of a screen :D

This makes me wonder what I'm gonna be bringing...
My trusty CF Dodo will be of the party, carry that a secondary blade everyday.
My Gayle Bradley is never too far gone and the Jester on my keys.
But wich of my knives are uncommon enough to take them along... I'm gonna have a look through the collection :p

The Manix will be there for you my friend. ;)
It is a very nice knife. the see trough handles (When not charged and in normal light) do show the technical inside of the manix in a nice way. :)

Someone should create a pocket dump thread for those attending the meet. That would be cool to see. Obey some of the makers would have a custom or two worth a look.
Most recently acquired: Military 2, Paramilitary 2 Tanto x2, YoJUMBO, Swayback, Siren, DLC Yojimbo 2, Native Chief, Shaman S90V, Para 3 LW, Ikuchi, UKPK, Smock, SUBVERT, Amalgam, Para 3 CTS-XHP, Kapara, Paramilitary 2 M390
Grail Paramilitary 2 M390 X 2! ACHIEVED!!
