I like the discretion, but I'm also not one to wear any accessories or "bling". Shiny clips and flashy handles hanging on my pockets just isn't me.

Military in pocket right now

Funny how the Rex45 was so hyped and desired. Now you never hear anything about the 2 models released in this steel. Safe queens I'm assuming? My guess is it becomes more of a production steel we'll get more testing and feedback. Don't even see many pics of these knives posted in picture threads! T...

So what's up with all the Hap40? I'm not complaining, but Hap40 (if I understand it correctly) is a high-speed tool steel. We often pine for these premium steels, but they are not often rolled into the proper size and shape for cutlery application (plus all this Hap40 is laminated). I wonder why Se...

Mine wasn't particularly sharp out of the box either. But it was easy to get sharp and the length of time it stays shaving sharp has been the best I have experienced, especially after I put my own back bevels on it.

Very nice. AGREED about the DLC scale swap :)

The Paakawood at $131.97 is starting to look like it was a price mistake.

I'm assuming your referring to the KC exclusive? Looks like its $156 on their website, did they just change the price lol?

Last year it was $131.97 when they dropped.

Native5 LW would be my choice out of those knives. I have both Maxamet and S110v (we really are spoiled) and am not sure which I like better. In theory I like Maxamet better, but never really connected with it and that dark blue is very nice :) I haven't had chips in either, but found Maxamet easier...

Please pardon the shameless plug, but there is an FRN version in-the-works.

Hoping it's just as slim and the initial release is K390 :)

Ya, its doing it with 5 now.

I'm yet to have anyone walk off with a brown lighter :) I should really buy only brown lighters.

It really does carry well. I put a deep carry clip on my and it simply disappears in my pocket. EDCing it in the office might be a little extreme, but it's been out and about a few times.

My praise is usually communicated with pictures if no one minds :D

I'm going to guess this one is around for a while unless it was a smaller run.

I have one in the mail :D

P3 is my favorite design from Spyderco, so I'm real interested to see how they compare.

Congrats! This is going to be a good week for sure :D

Welcome to the forum. Best new knife release of 2017 IMO! Been using it for a year and the Wow factor has not worn off. And yes, K390 might perform better than any steel I've ever used... I've been trying my best to lobby for more K390. Ideally a full Seki sprint run, but I'd settle for a PM2 ;) htt...

Thanks Nick! Dry River :) We were camping in Crawford Notch at the time. Saw a ton of motorcycles up there, unfortunately ours were back home.
