Congrats Vic - I'm really glad that you got one! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Me,too. This knife is special.

Yes it is! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I got #477, and I see that you got #413. Random order filling I guess. Man, I LOVE that M9LE! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Too bad that link was a false hope last week - I was hoping to get a 2nd one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

i was going to try to get a second one myself. i will finalize my m9le order tomorrow. can't wait...

I need to contact Jeff. I will want to piggyback the HCLE with it. They make a killer combo. Black leather. It will be sweet.




that's gonna be real nice... please post lot's of pics of that setup... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Now I need to find a HCLE to match my M9LE!! Great looking duo!!! BTW I got #395..

Very nice pic of the M9 posing. The M9 HCLE combo makes for a great looking pair of blade.

That is EXACTLY what I have saying and was trying to tell you!!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Finally, a knife I can't really do ANYTHING of relevance to improve. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I will probably feel I have to put a convex and polish on the edge, but I still have to give my M9LE a LOT of credit for having a very worthy up to industry standards edge. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I "might" also do some radiusing to the choil, but that is a very minor mod and not a feature I would really ever expect or complain about not having. Otherwise, it is almost impossible to come up with ANY thing I can see to improve. Pretty much PERFECT!!!!!

I really like the fact that the M9LE's guard finally isn't over-sized/over-chunky. It is a smaller very usable size and yet PLENTY large for everything/anything it could ever be needed for. It's smaller size is more comfort when choked up and provides more blade edge in closer to the standard grip. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />





Gorgeous, isn't it?! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />


But, if you are ONLY going to display that one, and I can't blame you - it is GORGEOUS, you really need another to do more chop-offs with and compare to the DFLE, NMSFNO, Chopweiler/Ratweiler, etc. .... hence why Mag and I were trying to tell you to get 2. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> But, I also understand the need to "Try" to cut back on purchases. And also have WAY more than I need. I am having to consider selling some/something to help pay bills. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

Good score HD

Beautiful blade Vic! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Congrats on the M9LE, Vic. When I got mine I thought to myself... that's a knife that Vic would love, good to see that you got one! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That was kind of what I was thinking when I got my NMSFNO. I was pretty sure Vic would like the NMSFNO a lot.

But, when I got the M9LE....., I "KNEW" Vic would "LOVE" it!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
