What knife did you carry today?

[Henry Swanson]

Give the 0350 a look while you're at it. A little smaller, better for edc in my opinion.

I can agree with this, but the overbuilt cool factor of the 0300 is worth having in the collection IMO.

I'm carrying my 0350 today.

Truth be told, I'm contemplating selling a couple of my Emersons to fund the purchase of a black wash 0300.

A couple?!

0300's run close to 3 bills here in Canada.

Kershawguy.com has them for $199 shipped. Not sure if that would apply to Canada but imo it shouldn't be much more if anything at all, trusted site my best friend buys ZT's from him and he's never had problems. Only thing is you have to email him about the strider bw because for some reason or another he doesn't have them advertised. I shot him an email asking if he had them and what the price would be, $199 shipped and he has about 50 in stock. He's beaten every other price I've gotten by at least $35. Hoped this helps.

Oh wow. I could probably send you a 0300 to Canada if you send me a nice Emerson... :icon_chee

I've held off ordering knives from the US before because I've read stories about those assholes at Canadian customs(no offense jlag) confiscating blades.

It really depends on how much of a dick that particular officer is on that given day. Some guys try to spin the whole "centeifugal force" bullshit if they can wrist flick it open, completely ignoring that most folders have adjustable pivot points.

I carried my CQC-8 on the way to the Assiniboia gun show, where I picked up a 4.5-14x42mm Burris for my new .308.

I'd rather not risk it with a 200 dollar knife. Naw mean?

Understandable, let it be known that if you ever cross from Opheim, MT into Rockglen, SK; I'm not the kinda guy who busts balls over that shit.

I played around with this one today...I just don't get used to it. Who wants to trade it for a Strider?

 

[xPINKx]

Or...a quarter Strider...

 

[Henry Swanson]

What is it?

 

[xPINKx]

It's a Pohl Force Bravo One Survival. I got it from my Secret Santa on a German forum, and for some reason I can't find a way to like it. It has a nice blade, feels good in the hand, the lock is solid and you can remove the one hand opening-mechanism to make it legal to carry in Germany, but the design just isn't my cup of tea.

 

[Henry Swanson]

It looks a tad crude.

 

[xPINKx]

I blame se German design.

Tough decision: Spyderco Military or Paramilitary?
The Military has a linerlock, which I dig, but can't be worn tip up.
The Paramilitary has that strange compression lock that I know nothing about, but can be worn tip up. And it's smaller, which is never a good thing.
I'll probably get both...

The PM2 is one of the most sought after blades out there.

My Superleaf has the progression lock and it's pretty sweet.

Cool, good to know!
I just hope, the Pohl Force and the Extrema Ratio I sell on eBay do well enough to get me close to both knives...

The place I buy my blades from, whenever they get a new shipment of PM2's, people buy them up quickly.

I logged on to their site one afternoon at work and saw that they were taking pre-orders on the digi camo PM2. By the time I got home about an hour later, the pre-orders were all filled.

The knife must be pretty good.

The regular Millie is pretty sexy as well, especially the full titanium framelock version.

 

[Henry Swanson]

And my original post should have said compression lock.
