I don’t need another knife.

SOG had emailed me a promo and I just ordered one of these for no other reason than I really like the look of it and I had a 15% off customer appreciation coupon I hadn't used.
Today's mental task - justify spending $50 on yet another knife.
Tellus FX - Wolf Gray
Features a 4.2” full-tang CRYO 440C stainless steel clip point blade, easy-to-grip GRN handle, and an adjustable UMS compatible sheath. Free shipping!sogknives.com
The SOG Tellus FX arrived today and it is a much beefier knife than I imagined from the website photos. The polymer sheath and metal belt clip is pretty nifty. I am pleased at $50.96 shipped.
Here it is next to a Sig P365XL for size reference...

After:
Not new, per se, but a new factory edge and freshly refinished back from SPA treatment… this was a gift from my mom 20-ish years ago and in my younger days I abused it. I now plan to pass this down to my son, and recently sent it back to Buck under their lifetime warranty. If anyone has an old Buck knife with sentimental value, I’d highly recommend their SPA service. Only $6.95.

Finally grabbed this piece of man jewelry for Sunday church carry, Case Trapperlock Kickstart. The kickstart assist is snappy and I love the red bone scales. I wouldn't beat on it like some of my other knives, but thats not what I bought it for.
Bought a Civivi. Thought it was bigger. Actual size is closer to the mini bugout, which will work fine with shorts down here.

John from, @The Edge Lab hooked me up once again. The Elementum turned into my favorite edc, and then they came out with an Elementum button lock so I felt the need to get one, so I did! It's a little thicker and heavier than the original without the button lock, but for the most part it's the same size.

Mainly throwing knives, but also from cheap, worn out sheathes. When they are tacticool colors, they are basically invisible in the leaves.
A cold steel recon scout was my hardest loss. Looked for that all day.

It’s very nice! I love how they kept it a flipper like the original but with the added button lock it’s an easy one hand close as well.

picked up a masalong kni232 the other day. a fairly inexpensive edc that i set up for scout carry. to keep the cost down they used a cheap chinese steel, 9cr14mov. this is suppose to be hard stainless steel. don't know how hard, it almost rings when i rap it with my knuckle. since it's only made for one thing, it may shatter if it hit bone. so we have g-10 scales, a 2.75" blade, 7" overall and a decent kydex sheath that gobbles the knife with a positive snap holds holds the knife secure. i set it up for scout carry. it was really easy to reposition the belt clip. the clip can be configured for different belt widths by removing and aligning a couple of spacers that come with it. i had to remove one altogether for my belt to fit securely. i was seriously considering the crkt minimalist line but too small for what i was looking for. i didn't want a neck knife. this mesalong is exactly the size i was looking for. not high end or fancy by any stretch but it'll work.
Elementum 2 with the button lock is the $hit. I’ve acquired quite a few button locks…this one is my favorite.

Launch 15 arrived today via UPS...
Comes in at just under 3oz and sits LOW in the picket.
It popped up on the Knives Ship Free email/site last week, so I had to order it. As of that time BladeHQ still didn't have it available. Just another Kershaw automatic added to my collection.

I want one of those.
Spyderco Para 3 in Maxamet steel with grey G10 scales. I’ve ordered a deep carry clip from LynchNW.

So I’m not into knives for the most part, but I appreciate them.
Found out my buddy is making them and I asked him to make one for me.
Well, here it is…

You're buddy makes blades and you just found out? That's pretty sweet. Hook him up and give him a plug

He's a bit of a recluse so it's hit or miss getting to talk to him
