@tmg:

Seul/Doug - thanks for the advice guys, much appreciated! Since I'm torn between the traditional stye and the modern fast-openers, I'm going to get both the Rough Rider and a Kershaw…..Seul, I'd like to take you up on your very kind offer, expect a PM shortly

Michael, that Enzo looks very slick, and I'll keep it in mind for the future.

tmg - I'll post pick when mine arrives.

If you find yourself wanting to spend more money: Zero Tolerance makes fantastic knives and is a subsidiary of Kershaw. Northfield Knives is the way to go in the realm of traditionals

Personally, I carry a Victorinox Electrician on a daily basis

Ordered:

• one Kershaw Zing, black, plain blade (which is so awesome) for one tmg

• one Kershaw Scallop, black for myself… They're smaller than the Zing but I like 'm!..

great thread this one

i was wondering if anybody has a large regular sebenza for sale? i'm feeling the urge again. I got rid of my small 21, large classic and now just have the small regular but i think i need the large regular to go with it

[Seul]

The Sebenza's back baby!.. Opens and closes so smoothly again… Sharp as a razor... Guy charged me 4 €... Yeah: I know I should just learn to do it meself but for 4 € I can't be arsed... I'll just let him do it every couple of months...

One quite weird thing, though… There was half a bandaid in my box...  :o

Better than half a finger…

[Seul]

You want a half a finger? I can get you a finger, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. Hell, I can get you half a finger by 3 o'clock this afternoon - with nail polish.

Thats for putting on your nose and pretending to be a piggie

Calmer than you are

Does anyone have experience with BEAR OPS knives?.. Still looking for a butterfly knife… Only thing is that it's expensive, and if customs fuck me over... I got my Sebenza and Kershaw sans problème but you never know... Anyone have any tips?..

[DougNg]

I would so a google search and see if the same company as Bear and sons. If it is, it's garbage

It actually is. I did some research (which I should've done first, sorry) and yes it appears that the knives are indeed garbage and their QC is next to non-existing.

Thanks DNg!..

I also found that there are fake Sebenzas out there. If you're buying 2ndhand: watch yourself!..

My Enzo PK70 Carbon Fibre arrived last week - very cool and UK EDC friendly.

Photo isn't great, but should give you an idea of the size.

Ops, pressed the wrong button! Sorry for the extra post.

It's very cool. They do different scales as well, if you fancy a different look.

Courtesy of a very cool forum member    I've now got a Zing..

For the money, it's brilliant, but I think I'm going to get a Spyderco UKPK soon, since the Zing (as a locking knife) won't be leaving the house with me. Also strongly considering a Victorinox (SAK) Alox Farmer as an alternative EDC, since it's relatively innocuous, well made and nicely understated.
