Back from an extended hiatus.
Here's my EDC knife. The rest of the junk I carry is pretty mundane and not worthy of a photo.

Can't answer all of your questions. But the pen is a Waterman Phileas. Least expensive model in the Waterman line. Overall, not bad. I gave a ballpoint version to my dad, he likes it. But knowing what I know now, I'd never buy a ballpoint Waterman again.
The pen line is named after Phileas Fogg, the main character from the book "Around the World in 80 Days." They still make the pen. Last time I checked, they averaged about $30 - $35 depending on if you want a Fountain Pen, Roller-Ball, or Ball-point. Fountain pen isn't bad, but I personally found the nib to be too soft. Avoid the ball-point. The roller-ball is nice. Best roller-ball refills on the market are from Pelikan (not a typo). And they fit inside Waterman pens. But the point does protrude a bit further than a Waterman roller-ball refill.
Hope this helps.![]()

thought you'd get a kick out of the rasta adidas, brian... that's why i decided to include them...![]()
patagonia was kind enough to custom make pullovers for everyone on the appalachia coal country watershed team... the back's got a large map of appalachian states on it... it's a pretty cool piece of cool weather gear.![]()
new one...

WOW! I never thought it could be done, but that picture makes the cricket look badass rather than cute! Very well done!!

Sorry Tricod, been away for a while.
I think Monocrom answered all there is to know about that pen, I do not EDC it all the time, like I described, it's like IHC (in house carry) mosty.
It's a good writer for it's price, sort of lika a entry level Fountain Pen.
About that Dodo clip, I had a new one from Spyderco, that was a temporary solution. Thanks for the offer though![]()
