Benchmade 530 I got at a pawn shop for $5 bucks. Was in trashy shape and wouldn't open. Sent it back to Benchmade for $3 and they totally reconditioned, sharpened and replaced all springs and it's been an awesome $8 knife.
I don't EDC a Praetorian because frankly to me it's kinda weighty. I do EDC a 187F and it's a great fit and the Vulcan Blade is awesome as well. I will get a Praetorian one day but probably the Genesis version. It's bigger than the Micro Praetorian but a little smaller and lighter than the Ti.
Yeah I read some of the guys' comments here and so I expected the worst. But, turns out he's just an opinionated guy kinda like me so I guess birds of a feather right? Say what's on your mind and deal with the backlash. Yeah he chatted me up. I was actually on the fence about a Panzer or a Mini...
Sounds like a plan. I'd like to get a nice custom fixed blade about 7" in total length maybe with a 3.5'-4" fat belly blade. Yeah the Blackwood customes are hard to come buy but are nice. Yeah Greg was a totally cool guy. He raffled off a Praetorian on Saturday evening and the dude who won...
First Blade Show and it was awesome. Sooooo much stuff to see and touch and feel. So much more stuff I wanted to get but I already had my heart set on a couple of makers and then picked up a couple of extras with what I had left over. Here's what I got:
- Medford 187F (Flipper) - Met Greg and...
Yeah they are a bit ADD. I just sold a SKS synthetic stock and handguard on there just a couple of weeks back. They don't know what they want or don't want to sell sometimes.
Man who you tellin? Crazy. But, they are based in that big 'ol state on the left coast so? And don't get me wrong, I love visiting Cali. Just visiting......
Very good and strong and sturdy knife. Can't get it to break the liner lock which I love. Had mine sharpened by a guy in Oregon named Tom Veff. Did a great job. Gonna send him maybe 3-5 more knives to sharpen for me here in the next week. Awesome job.
