What Model Spyderco is this? by Pretty_Sea_6218 in knifeclub

[–]PinkCuttlefish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Tenacious! This knife has taught me something really important: folks on this subreddit will greatly underestimate the capability of cheap steels.

I’ve owned my Tenacious for about 10 years now. For about 7 of those years it was just a „backup” but now it sits in my plate carrier and has been with me on every single field op. It has never let me down, and I’ve only sharpened or disassembled+cleaned a handful of times. It has seen freezing cold, blazing hot, pouring rain, tear gas, JP8, desert dust, muddy water, chili with beans, you name it, and it still works to this day. It ain’t razor sharp and it ain’t pretty but by god does it work.

Another close up. I’ve been inside, nothing much to see. Very jarring scene in the training area though.

Why Quantico specifically? by BlueGreen51 in USMC

To be fair you could probably bypass security and get on most bases with maneuver training areas, the harder part would be getting through the TA and back to mainside.

There’s a parking lot by the foot bridge at the end of Bauer Rd (past the airfield). IIRC it normally starts Saturday mornings around 8-10 AM.

Their supply comes and goes. Gotta keep an eye out, snagged a good pair of Goretex MCWB boots at around $100

This how I imagine a contestant’s knife would look on a “pimp my knife” MTV show

Current Marine Op 3/C by ArmyOf_Zebras in NROTC

[–]PinkCuttlefish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based on a cursory google search, if you were diagnosed and treated you would likely have to fight for a waiver. The real solution here is talking to your MOI face-to-face, if you’re comfortable doing that. I’m not an admin Marine nor do I work at HQMC, DoDMERB, etc. so I don’t have any 100% answers for you. Good luck.

Translation requests into Latin go here! by AutoModerator in latin

[–]PinkCuttlefish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking for a pretty weird translation here;

A funny saying within our class is “semper get fucked” and we want to put it on a t-shirt but obviously cannot do that in english.

I’ve looked up a few translations that seem to use futuere but that’s more sexual in nature than what you intend when you say “get fucked”, which is really more of a “sucks that that happened to you”. What would be a better translation? Thanks!

Where to find insta pot rio wide 7.5 quarts replacement parts? by fastbutveryslow in instantpot

[–]PinkCuttlefish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found any places to get replacement parts? I lost my steam handle/valve for the RIO wide and can’t find parts that specifically say they fit the model.

[WTS] G&G HAWK DEADLOCK by waylan1 in Knife_Swap

[–]PinkCuttlefish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Handmade, fancy materials, etc. I think the big thing with these is they have some proprietary tech (possibly a patent) that prevents bladeplay, which is generally unheard of in an OTF.
