Re: Has the Coronavirus affected your daily life?

Today headed out to the local registry office to get the plate sticker for the car - figured we'd get it a bit ahead of time, as when we called they said they might be closing up shop for some time...

Had to get bloodwork done for my annual. went to the lab, only two people in the waiting room.. The city feels like it did during the 2013 flooding. People are being carefu...

Re: Does anyone know of a deep carry clip...

Indeed! The MXG Gear deep carry clip for the Native 5 FRN fits the L'il Native Lockback perfectly! - only caveat is to use the original L'il Native screws, the MXG gear ones are a tad to long. http://www.albertatimeservices.ca/photos/mxg_lil_native_3.jpg http://www.albertatimeservices.ca/photos/mxg_...

Re: When is the Ikuchi going to get some CQI?

Well..
I suspect that mine needs more break in - still really hard to flip with the wheel (and that's a bit of a finger shredder still). easier to do a two hand open by using the compression lock release the blade from the handle ..
Other than that.. its a keeper for the design..
