Recently became a Drake Well fan too. It's a Queen, but seemed fitting. And love those two DM. Beautiful. Made me think of it.

I carry a gec nearly every day. I'm realizing a gec will do most of what a modern folder will. When appropriate, ill pick the gec every time.

Thanks DM, appreciate it. That's why they call it "Great" Eastern Cutlery I guess. Great to me. Thanks again.
