Knife is still stuck at regional hub last 3 days because of the weather. MG2

I hate that for you… I’m anxious for it to come in and it’s not even mine!

I though I don't blame them.

I don’t blame them either, their safety is more important than the knife . I know it’s in safe hands it’s a weather problem not the carriers . MG2

what are your initial impressions vs the pacific salt? I plan to give mine lots of carry time once I get a new one in the mail.

Alright! It made it!

I definitely like the ergos in hand , no hump and jimping. The finish is much better than my initial expectations . I like the grippy scales some may not . Sits in pocket similar to the Chief so a win win for me , just smaller . Comparing to the Pacific is very difficult since I have a big bias carrying the Salt for so long and just having the Siren a couple hours. Both feel good in hand but the Siren feels better and similar to example a Goddard large , simply designed and neutral but nicely balanced. I like both for different reasons so far . Siren is a beautiful knife but I suspect very capable, there is no mistake what the Pacific designed, for hard use in any condition. Sorry for rambling. MG2

Crucarta PM2. Had decided I did not "need" it but saw them come up at DLT last night finally and yeah, I caved.

Also a Para 3 LW for the son's b-day!

[Ranger_Ike]

Awesome! Glad it came in and you like it. Looking forward to hearing how you like it.

Very nice! I love the Endela. K390 is a beast.

Turns out, the Titanium Pingo I thought I had ordered was a fake, made of steel.

Fluted CF Native from Knivesandtools. Sold an unused SE BLK/DLC Native to "make room" in the tool roll for it.

Looking forward to know what you'll think of it, it's my most prized possession.

Heh, I already know what to think of it. It is to be my ultimate N5. It will be my fifth and I see no point in buying another one after this. So it will be saving me money in the long run. At least that is what I am telling myself.

It's totally rational, I had a very similar train of thoughts. I said to my father when showing it to him : "With this one, no need for other N5s, it's the ultimate version!"

(Let's not mention that, since then, I bought the Maxamet and SPY27 versions... But it was for the steels ! A whole new reason to buy )

So far I can't see any flaws anywhere. No blade play, perfect lock-up. Centered and shaving sharp blade. After unboxing, the action was like my Rex45 G-10 Native. Applied some lightweight oil and worked it in, fidgeted with it. The action moved towards Fluted Ti Native territory. Almost there, but not quite.
Slicing through an apple, compared to a large Sebenza is also almost there.

The weight is just 10 grams less than a G10 version, barely noticable.

I am too afraid to wear this with a pocket clip, so I took it off, no problems. Just nicer without the clip.

I found a Persian sprint run with the red scales the other day and purchased immediately. I've heard great thing about them and have never seen one for sale before. it should arrive in a couple days.

I’m hoping to get some feedback on a recent purchase of a Birdseye Maple Chaparral.

I was able to find a clearance Chaparral online for $109. When the knife arrived in the mail, there was a big DISPLAY sticker on the box. The paperwork inside the box was also missing. The knife appears to be new except for a very slight gap between the the lock bar and show-side liner.

When I contacted the vendor, they explained that they sometimes ship display models when it’s the last item in inventory. They offered to pay return shipping and refund my money.

My question to the forum is, would you keep the knife for $109? I really like the birdseye Chap, but I’m worried the slight imperfection and knowledge that it was a display model will eat at me over time.

It is nice without the clip.
Managed to snag mine for a man who kept it as a safe queen (but with the wrong clip) for 200€.
Since it wasn't the right clip, i stuck my black cerakote LynchNW on it.

Now I just need to find the Fluted ti version.... Lamnia lists it so I went nuts but it appeared that they have had this sku listed for years without stock

Also : I managed to find a satin Yojimbo 2 for 130€ brand new, is it a good deal ? Knives&Tools lists it at 199€ and Lamnia at 180 (I guess 180 was before price increase and 199 is the price nowadays).
