I’m not looking to buy any of these but I think you might get more traction with others if you provided some more photos. Typically when selling used knives online, the more detail the better.

Do you have more photos?

wow it really is! :)

A nice update!

Just FYI, your first link is b0rked for me. I’m assuming b0rked for others too but you never can tell.

Not sure where you are in the world but a lot of public libraries have 3D printers now that you can use.

Well, Pete posted a new years update but more life than knife. Seems like he might be done with knife content for the most part. Ah well, this seems to be the way with a lot of hyper-specific hobby/enthusiast channels. Either they burn out or they develop new interests (imagine! 😂 ) and move the channel in a different direction.

Yes, most of the time it’s suggesting absolute garbage but every once in a while I get a great suggestion like this.

I hope Pete starts posting again. I miss his videos. He seems to go through a flurry of creative output and then crickets for weeks and weeks.

Wow, this is really neat. Sounds like it’s time to 3D print an updated version! 😁

This is really great! A little ingenuity and a solution is born. Thank you for sharing.

What a great write-up. I stand in awe again. :)

My two local Walmart stores continue to dissapoint when it comes to knives. The whole outdoors area has been made smaller and all the knives are now inside a glass storage cabinet behind a counter or at least behind a retracting stantion. Neither had the holiday specials out yet either.

I did sort think they were going for a combo Bugout/Bailout look with this one. The Bailout “Crater Blue” edition for example: https://www.benchmade.com/products/537fe-02 for the colorway and the blade shape, with a more Bugout-esc handle.

Still though, for $20 this is a rather astounding bargain. Even the button lock green one at $25 is a good deal.

Really amazing at how far they’ve brough the line since that first $6 crossbar lock .

That’s great to hear! It’s very “casual” looking with the spey blade and people tend to react well to it.

I’ve had the Iridium on my to-buy list for a while now. I’ve been trying to /not/ buy more knives but that one is so darn tempting. :)

Thank you but, I think you’re mixing me up with @dual_spork_dork who is a much better writer than I’ll ever be. :)

I guess, given my lack of posting frequency, I am rightlfully downgraded to “lurker” :)
But I have made a few posts before: https://lemmy.world/u/cetan?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts (not a fan of the reposts counting as my posts so some things are doubled-up)

Only 2 here since switching instances though.

This is really great. As always thanks for sharing the files!

My second carry is the Civivi Sendy with a far surperior toothpick and tweezers. Not only better than nothing but better than most!

The Victorinox tweezers are… very low quality compared to other offerings. I’ve been using an ALOX Farmer X for a couple years now and I never miss the toothpick or the tweezers. YMMV of course.

Given the poor quality of the clone, “friend” seems a bit of a stretch here. More like a lazy bastard who somehow married into the family and is trying to cozy up to grandma to get some of that sweet sweet inheritance. You didn’t pick them and you surely don’t want them around but it looks like they’ll be there for a while… at least until everyone wises up.

You’re, of course, going to sharpen it, right? :)
