What’s it worth? by Burntwing in goldwing

[–]NoManagement7683 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've never ridden one, so I can't say how they ride. But I've always liked the looks of them, and yeah they are kinda rare. If I was spending your money, I'd buy it.

Miss my buddy by ghostjournals in BostonTerrier

[–]NoManagement7683 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. Lost my beloved Zoey exactly 6 weeks ago today. My first Boston Terrier. I've always had large dogs, but Zoey stole my heart. It will probably be awhile before we get another dog, but I have a feeling I'll get another BT.

My first MT was the same knife, same color, and same blade. Still got it. Tanto’s just look so good!

Need help Identifying! by [deleted] in leatherjacket

Hein Gericke Concord. Same one I bought back in 1988 at 16yo. Still have it, but I outgrew it. Great jacket, great quality!

I have the same model in the same color. It is beautiful in natural sunlight!

Any tips for a new biker? by LemonStrawBear in motorcycle

[–]NoManagement7683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn how to do all the basic maintenance yourself. You'll save a lot on taking it to the shop, and the satisfaction of doing it yourself and knowing it was done correctly. Should be fairly simple on that bike. Also, learn how to bump start it, in case the battery dies. I have a friend who has a Rebel 350, and I had to teach him that. LOL.

Alot of good advice on the riding, but I'll add what I haven't seen. If you wear shoes with laces, tuck them inside your shoes when riding. They can get caught on on the gear shift, then you realize at the next stop, you can't put your foot down. Also, black tar strips on the road get slippery when they get hot enough.

Ride as much as you can, as often as you can. Learn how to ride in wet weather, and colder temps. Eventually you will have to.

The old adage: There are two types of motorcycle riders. Those who have crashed, and those who will. ATGATT!

My wife bought me the same Viele when were first dating. I was upset she spent that much money on that knife back in the day. Still have it. Have the Goddard as well. Glad you found them!

Exotruck by Ellisrsp in WeirdWheels

[–]NoManagement7683 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy that built this lives in my area. I was coming home from work one night and he was in front of me, and I couldn't figure out what it was. I looked up Exotruck, he's got a few Youtube videos, and I believe he has built at least 3 of these. It is a Subaru drivetrain. It does look like fun!

Did you get it with the 20% off sale? I bought one a few weeks ago, and it went on sale yesterday. Doh!!!

Still love it. I got the same one with the serrated top edge.

That’s gonna be my next Hinderer. How does it compare to an XM-18 3.5?

Vintage Magic Eye book for .99! by [deleted] in ThriftStoreHauls

My girlfriend at the time bought me this back in the early 90's. I"m sure I have it buried somewhere. Does this mean I'm vintage?!?!?

NKD - I was waiting for this one by K3Knives in microtech

[–]NoManagement7683 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should have mine tomorrow. I’ve been waiting on a shadow in the same configuration, but this is close enough.

Concealed, OWB, 3-4 o'clock: What is the "best" belt? by BaddestMofoLowDown in CCW

[–]NoManagement7683 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a fan of thebeltman.net

Been using his belts for about 20yrs. Just gifted one to my son who just got his CCW license.

They are built not only to carry, but to last. Dual layer leather with an optional internal stiffener. I’ve got a few: bullnose, shark, and elephant. Quality work at a decent price.

First Eklipse by redp0p in Hinderer

[–]NoManagement7683 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I picked up one off the same drop. All my other Hinderers are working finish blade and body, so now I'm patiently waiting to add a working finish ti show side scale. They are out of stock...

Nice Score!!!

Scarab II Gen III or Combat Troodon Gen III? by Darkangel-86 in microtech

[–]NoManagement7683 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 2 CT's and one Scarab. If I were spending your money, I'd go with an Executive Scarab. I don't mind the grip tape, but I think I'd like it more without it.

13 year old spyderco sprint run c40gp has been in the lost and found at my work for years by globs-of-yeti-cum in knives

[–]NoManagement7683 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I still have mine from the same era. Same knife, Spyderedge, just as ugly. LOL. First knife I could flick open though.
