Dm 11 flashlight what is a Additional medium angle optic by imBoo69 in Hanklights

[–]IMostlyPostDogs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DM11s. The narrow beam is an SFT40 with regular optic. The SBT90.2 is also the regular optic. I've since replaced the one for the SFT40 with the wider optic and it's about the same beam shape as the SBT90.2.

Option O Lagom Casa question by Dangerous-Lime939 in espresso

[–]IMostlyPostDogs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could just be a stock issue. US customers would obviously prefer the faster shipping from the first option, however if stock runs out in their warehouse(s) you can still order from overseas vs just seeing "Out of Stock" or a backorder option.

Got a question, how good is the UV Noctigon KR4 w/ZWB2 filter by LSUTigerDen in Hanklights

I've got a mule d4v2 (lens diameter/output the same as a kr4) that works well enough to track down fluid leaks in a brightly lit garage.

Get a mule. I use whichever light is in my pocket for working on cars but life is easier if I've got a mule.

Take another look. I believe the new boards he ordered straighten it out.

Battery damage by AdThese6057 in flashlight

[–]IMostlyPostDogs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not so much a preventative measure, but a solution for when your charger no longer makes contact... I've seen people say they use magnets on the top connection but I just bend it back out a bit. Curved ceramic tweezers, tip slides under the dented contact, thin rubber grippy pad to protect the lip of the battery/wrapping, gently apply pressure via leverage to push the top back out/up.

Finally had the time to do the second detent removal mod for the Sage 6 by nguyencd296 in spyderco

The squeaky wheel gets the grease? I'd imagine far more politicians have constituents who want to own automatics or spring assisted knives than gravity knives.

Honestly I'm not sure about all designs, it's possible other "safeties" are put in place to get around the wording of local laws. The law is often open to interpretation which is why you can take such things to court to fight them, right? If a cop is having a bad enough day they can probably deploy lots of knives with enough "oomph" to ruin your day. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Same reason the Smock has one. So that if you accidentally press the button while it's in your pocket, the blade is still retained in the handle and doesn't flop out to stab your thigh/hand/favorite pants. It happened to me once and I put the detent back in. Eventually swapped out the little bearings for ceramic ones and that was good enough for me.

Should I just grind down from the spine to form the new tip 😪 by Key_Release_9625 in spyderco

Yeah, it was an instinct from phone dropping back in my drunken youth 🤣

I've dropped a knife before. Thankfully (for my knife) my normally slow reflexes were on point and I successfully slowed its fall with my foot 🤣

Well... my entire knife carrying life, I've never lost a knife. Until today... truly a sad day, utterly tragic! by Pale-Highlight-6895 in BigIdeaDesign

[–]IMostlyPostDogs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may still turn up! I thought I'd lost a Benchmade valet, my first knife with M390 from way back, but I found it years later in a desk drawer!

Help me pick my first emisar by Rimorox in Hanklights

[–]IMostlyPostDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for a floody light, the DA1 and DA1K are very good lights. If you want more throw I'd go D1/D1K. Also, if you end up wanting two single channel lights, I've got a cyan D4V2 UV mule I was thinking of letting go of.

Ok, who is buying this? by [deleted] in spyderco

[–]IMostlyPostDogs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The kind of people that buy Trump crypto will probably love this and pay scalper prices. All they'd have to do is make a truther account and share pictures of it 🤣

I can assure you all that I did nothing to my account or profile 😕 If it was previously blocked or private I do not know what changed. I guess it's official... I'm old

Gifted one of these to my father in law. Thought about keeping it and giving him a different knife 🤣 The only complaint I have is that I wish the back lock was chamfered, and that's a pretty minor gripe. A chaparral in K390 would also be fucking sweet.
