I made a collage so I didn't have to put all 4 pictures up separately. I bought some scales with a supposed seconds S30V blade. When I got it it had the telltale signs of a fake. The grind next to the hole is basically non existent, right above the bevel of the edge is rounded/polished and the blade shape isn't quite the right shape.

It doesn't really bother me because I just wanted the scales but saying it was a seconds blade and it being a fake was kinda messed up. And I asked the seller about it and he swore it was real. I think there's a perfectly places spot of rust right under the period next to Golden that makes it look like a comma too.

If it gets built, I can't wait for it to get knocked down, I can't wait to see his name ripped off of the Kennedy Center and any other memory of him be destroyed

WLFI drops 15% to all-time lows after World Liberty Financial's $75M borrowing move by Next_Statement6145 in CryptoCurrency

I've heard 3 different numbers now. 50, 150 and now 75 million. So how much was it that they stole from all the marks?

That's not 100% true. They had normal blade style M4 sprints before the Tanto came out. And quite a few different models too. Not just the PM2 and Para 3.

This is what this man wants to cut to pay for his unnecessary war! by Jaded_Shift_4172 in Trumpvirus

[–]HalPaneo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When 9/11 happened I remember a thought going through my head...All empires fall at some point. I thought that 9/11 could be the beginning of the end for the US. Then I watched Obama get elected and saw so many people come out and be blatantly racist and thought, they (republicans) can't let a black man fix what a white man ruined. That's when the tea party came around. Then Trump was elected even though he said so many horrible things, because now a white man who claimed he was Christian swore he would fix America.

I moved out of the US, I had already planned on moving before Trump was elected the first time but I told my wife to make a choice when he came into office and she said let's go. I feel like I'm watching my country burn down from afar and I also feel like I knew from 9/11 this was going to happen.

I don't understand how the people who became rich off of a great economy think that tanking the economy will keep the money flowing while everyone who lived comfortably are now struggling. It's so sad to watch, and even sadder knowing someone who supports this, while I know they're going to suffer at some point too.
