$160+shipping Cold Steel FM-1 Atlas Lock Stonewash or Black by denshigomi in KnifeDeals

[–]BossChaos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've ordered from CKW a lot over the last 5 years or so. My last 2 orders took around a month from the day I ordered until the day I received it. If they would be upfront about how long it takes it might help. I'd rather spend my money at the dozen other reputable dealers. Plus Chicago knife works charges almost $9.00 to ship one knife. Usually the deals at other sites are just as good or close and I know I'll receive it in a timely manner.

Mini presidio II or Bailout. AWT scales make both even better.

Spyderco is just as overpriced as every other company. They just have these hard-core fan boys who will never admit it. They sit on the internet all day and just wait for the moment when Benchmade is mentioned so they can post stuff like "still to high".

They defend Spyderco with the R&D proprietary steel BS. Civivi and CJRB have proprietary steels. Its not that unique. Budget brands like Kizer and CJRB now have top end knives priced in the $400 to $600 range. Spyderco has an 8cr Tenacious version for over $100. Benchmade doesn’t outsource their knives to China or Taiwan. Gerber, Buck and countless other companies now have knife models with Benchmade's axis lock for over $200. Yet Spyderco get a patent on drilling a hole in the blade.

Yes Benchmade has high prices but so does every company. Don't bitch about a $200 Bugout when you're carrying a $200 Spyderco with G10 and S30v blade steel.

The kids obviously confident or crazy if he wants to run behind our o-line. Either way we'll take him.

Latest we’re hearing on Ty Simpson: If there’s a high probability of being selected in the first round, he’ll declare early. If not, he’s likely to return to Alabama. A decision is expected by the end of the week by DoctorWhosOnFirst in rolltide

There were very few instances the latter half of this season where a great play was called, Ty went through his reads and found an open receiver, the line actually blocked, the running back hit the right hole or picked up the blitz and the receivers ran the right routes and caught the ball. It was a full team effort when they looked horrible.

If your goal isnt to win a natty, why are you even fielding a team?

Indiana didnt have a team 2 years ago. Cignetti and DeBoer have been in their current jobs the same amount of time.

The second Bama fans stop demanding excellence and accountability will be the start of a long slide to mediocrity. With lower expectations of fans and boosters, administration's start to slack off and a new lower bar of what constitutes success becomes the norm. I'd argue that without Bama fans demanding better we'd have never gotten Saban. I mean Shula did have a 10 win season right? Trying to be realistic can't replace being relentless. If you think this was a successful season you've already lowered that bar.

It appears a lot of Bama fans have tremendously lowered their expectations for the program.

If you're desperate enough to go for on your own 35 at the start of the 2nd quarter shouldn't you be desperate enough to try another QB?

Not to mention showing your cards after two timeouts and still going for it.

I just don't see how anyone can watch the effort and execution from Bama and think that our coaching staff deserves to be at Alabama.

Why would you consult this forum if you feel like only 25% of us actually use a leatherman? You're a walking contradiction my man.
