WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?

Ivoryman and GSPTOPDOG, is there a reason you don't support the site($20 is very little)? You sure like using the server space for your pics.

Well now Montanaman, I'll tell you what... I have more than one computer, multiple SD cards and three external hard drives. So, I don't need AAPK for their server space. In fact, I don't need to post a single picture here at all. I just thought people visiting this site like knives and especially like to look at pictures of knives. So, I go out of my way to try and take halfway decent and interesting pictures to add something to the AAPK site. However, it appears I was mistaken and that I have turned into some kind of freeloader and loaf-about, not paying my own fair share, not pulling my weight as would appear to be.

Well, don't let my freeloader appearance fool you Montanaman, because I have handed over more money to the AAPK site in the form of commissions from my store then you have forked over as a supporting member and that is a 100% guaranteed... hundreds and hundreds of dollars from me each year. I don't need to sell here; I have all the business I can handle elsewhere. However, I really like this site and most of the people on this site and having a store is nice option. But maybe those hundreds of dollars each year don't really count... because YOU say so!

Now, I will try and cut down on the pictures of my beat-up old knives that I was posting, just to leave more server space for your fancy high-dollar knives that you like to post. Those knives you use to "skin hogs with" that don't have a detectable scratch or the slightest blemish, or mark or patina on them... even after skinning all of them big 'Ol hogs out there in the Bad-Lands of Montana . I'll save the space on AAPK's poor old worn-out, overloaded server for your "classy" pictures.

Nice duos, Ivory and gard!


Totin' a 4154AC, I guess orange is the color of the day. Supposed to be hot, who can't use more AC? A post by Ken jogged my memory about these Kickstarts- assisted, liner lock and a pocket clip.

[JamieinWV]

I’ve been carrying these high dollar Sodbuster Jr lately, it feels comfortable in the pocket, I think I pulled it out of a gun safe buy over the last few months, I looked through all my knives here looking for one with CV blade, I guess I have never had one. But I put one on order.

Have a good weekend, gentlemen.

Some nice carries from all!

[Quick Steel]

Like the jigged covers on both knives. The Cattle Knife has lots of appeal for me, geocash.

[Ivoryman]

Buck and Bull Nose

Like the Bull nose, and love the burlap micarta on the Buck. What pattern is the Buck by the way? I like those two blade choices and especially if it's set up on one spring. Great pair.

It's a 301. It was the BOTM knife for 09-21. It's two springer. This knife has become a real favorite with me!

Thanks, Quick Steel. I have more Stockman than any other pattern so they must be my favorite, but Cattle Knives are right up there. I especially like the symmetry of the pattern.

Thanks G-Dog! I appreciate it It is the use and wear marks that make the tool really yours in a sense. I look at ding on the back of Buck 110 and that was where I hit the spine to spit a small piece of wood. That use puts memories into the tool so to speak and makes a connection between the user and the tool. Well... that's the theroy anyhow... ... And... that is one sweet Benchmade!

[FRJ]

I like your pictures too, TopDog.
Keep em' commin' and I think you have a pretty good view of tool usage
and the soul of our wonderful used knives.

Personally very stunned by that call out in a thread MontanaMan.
I have been here over 10 years and not a current paying member or really active.
Guess how much I have donated and raised with the help of members? Search "auction" on my posts. Not looking for a pat on the back but unbelievable to me that post was made. Judge with no idea beyond a surface membership banner?

I have donated at least 20 or so highly desirable knives here. Guess where the money went, yet no current membership? As I said. I am not surprised yet stunned on that call out.

IM and Topdog, ignore it! Unfortunately being a long time member and knowing we all love knives, I could not stay silent.

Regards. Jerry

Nice looking duo geocash! It's nice to see you around this neck of the woods again.

Kicking off my Patriotic EDCs with a Russlock in Patriotic Kirinite.

[garddogg56]

I always like a russlock,a looker for sure

Thanks, gard. I think you either like them or hate them, no middle ground with this pattern.

[tvic]

Looks good to me, rider! I only have one Russlock in my collection. I don’t dislike them - just have several other patterns I tend to gravitate toward when I’m buying.

[Dan In MI]

No middle ground with this pattern.

I've never handled a RussLock, so I'll hold off on evaluating anything other than their looks until I get one in hand. Maybe that's some sort of middle ground?

I can say everyone is carrying some nice knives, as is customary!

I recommend the less common Spear blade Russlock.




Thanks, Tim.
