This one came today. NOS Colt M8A1 & scabbard. I tooks the pics to show the condition it arrived in.
I'll clean it up later because some other goodies arrived and I want to go play.

I just got the same bayo in a trade a couple days ago, but alas I sold it to another lucky member...

A Helle I just bought from a member here. I've got Mora's, but this is a whole different kind of animal. It feels great in the hand, balanced & very sharp.
It was a good deal and I'm very pleased with it. Now it will become my edc belt knife.

I tried a new etching process and I don't think I'll do it again.

Coming soon: 9" AB ATS-34, flat-grind, Honey Horn, swivel bolster Automatic.

Arrives May 13, 2019.

 

[Captain O]

This Buck 124 Frontiersman is arriving by Wednesday. (Gotta love it).

 

[Captain O]

Both the AB and Buck 124 Frontiersman arrived in today's mail. The Buck is pretty enough to be a "Barbecue" blade. The AB ATS-34, flat-grind, Honey Horn scale stiletto is perfect and took a razor's edge in a matter of 5 minutes. (It is a pretty cool pocket knife).

I'm doing the "happy dance".

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Always nice to get a new knife or two...
While a Buck knife is great...I am really digging the AB Auto knife you got....very cool Captain O !

Thanks, Andy.

The Armando Beltrame Stiletto virtually "disappears" into either a shirt or sports jacket pocket. (Discretion is almost always the better part of valor).
The Honey Horn Scales and ATS-34 Hitachi Stainless Steel "flat grind" blade makes it a "useable" knife (not just a defensive weapon). Italian looks, charm, and utility to boot!

$100.00 + $6.00 shipping from Sharper Deals. (I was the only bidder in the auction).

What's not to like?

I carried this one on our Honeymoon, damn near two decades ago. (I happened upon this thread whilst cleaning out the arms chest.)

Memories such as those are SO wonderful! God bless you and the Mrs.

These came today from @2Wheels4Ever. The fighter is 1/4" thick with a 6.5" blade made from a file and the small one was a saw blade. They came with handmade sheaths as well.

Just got my Benchmade delivered, Haven't had one since the 90's when I lost a $250 model.
I love it, especially the sheepsfoot blade, sexy...

 

[GOG]

This TOPS Desert Son arrived today.
I'm going to see how it every day carries because it's such a handy size and it feels really good in hand.
The blade is 3" long and it's 3/16" thick, 1095 treated to around 58 or so and it's a stout little piece but it's only 4.4 ounces.

And it's made in the good ol' USA.

While I have the usual Kershaw/ Benchmade / Buck etc knives my edc is a semi-custom Emerson

Ernie himself says he has the need several times a year to stop being CEO of Emerson knifes and just wants to get out to the grinder and make knives.

I like smaller knives and the "Chopstick" was right up my alley
He makes an undetermined number of knives and says when he's done he doesn't revisit them again as he has too much to do and too many designs rattling around his head.

I thought it was a nice touch, he signed each blade he makes so those that purchased them get a knife from Ernie and not the production floor
In this series he only made 65

Here is number 45 of 65 "Chopstick" which I truly love as an edc knife.

 

[GOG]

Very nice.

Being from Califoolia originally i think is why i lean toward autos. I definitely need a real fixed blade in my life. Anyone here sharpen knife? I cant het a good edge for the life of me. Dammed hard steel.
