I remember when the Para was a big folder for me- those days are gone! About the smallest I carry now is my Emerson cqc 7.

What's the botton folder Randy?

I was thinking of you the other day when I got an email from knives ship free on a new...brous blades karambit- nasty looking knife! Very cool. I should send the Persian to you to look at..it's crazy cool too!

It's the GTI folder Justin Gingrich designed. It's made overseas but SOMEONE is paying attention to quality control. IT'S NICE!

You better not send it Rich. It MIGHT get lost in the return mail.

Anyone else come across these tests ?

Pretty awesome! Of course that COULD be why I carry a C/S XL Voyager!

Rich, I checked out that brous blades karambit and it does look sweet. But unless the clip is reversible I wouldn't like it quite as much. I prefer to draw the knife in the reverse grip so the edge comes out facing forward instead of the conventional grip.

I don't remember what model CS it is, but when I bought my Sig 220 in '97 you got a 6 inch recurve folder serrated folder that I still have. Surprisingly it carries quite well in the pocket.

Sounds like the Vaquero.

Yeah that's it, the GRAND Vaquero!

But of course!

My Birthday present from my wife:


I also just scored a Ferrum Forge Fortis Arc with the Maker's choice finish. I gotta take some pix of that little beauty.

Nice present...sounds like your wife is a "keeper"!

Happy Birthday whenever it is...you should put it on the Yard calendar.
