I bought ANOTHER bunch of knives
« on: August 03, 2023, 04:49:10 AM »
When I ordered that knife from the Gerber Custom Shop, I also ordered a Multi-Plier 600 - Black, Carbide Cutters, Needlenose, Berry-Compliant Sheath, National Stock Number: 5110-01-394-6252 for anyone who's issued one. It has the Patented one-hand opening Multi-plier, and the handles are facing the right way when you squeeze them, unlike a lot of multi-tools where you're squeezing against 2 thin edges of steel on each handle, instead of a wide flat surface.

That and the following knives should be here within the next 12-14 hours, at most.

Quadrant - Bamboo.

Straightlace - Blue.

Jukebox - Tortoise Shell.

GDC Money Clip.

Highbrow Compact - Urban Blue, Plain Edge. No video for this one so I posted a pic.

FAST Draw Tanto, with the lightning-quick F.A.S.T 2.0 opening mechanism.

Spire - G10.

And a CustomFit Dual Sheath to carry a couple things in, like a multi-tool and flashlight, plus it has loops for my tactical pen.

The Customized Assert knife will ship separately in 12-15 business days.

The Spire was in a box for a Pledge. When I saw that, at first I thought I had an extra knife. Then I thought I had the wrong knife. It was the right knife, but the wrong box. They're similar designs, but the Pledge is a 3.7" blade, whereas the Spire is just under 3" (2.93") and perfect for me. The Spire has a sliding lock on the sides that keeps the blade from opening accidentally in your pocket. It's  easy to pull back into the safe position, but harder to push the safety off. It will work in soon enough and ease up. Especially if I put a couple of drops of oil in it and use both hands to work it back and forth repeatedly.

The Spire - Aluminum doesn't have the high-speed, low-drag, go-fast "tactical" holes in the blade that my black one does, and it really looks a lot like the Pledge. Especially when neither one has the black oxide blade.
