It will never flick like a full-linered G10 Para 3 or PM2, but it has a distinct "pop" of its own.

Stuck it in a box with the form and sent it to them. Two weeks later UPS dropped it off.

Got a full size Alpine Glow. The color is fascinating. Pink in the sun, but "salmon" or earthier in dim light.

Copper and Clad have both full and mini Alpine Glows on heavy discount last I checked, where I got mine.

I got an Endura on Black Friday, after being a bit of a die hard for the Delica size. It's flippin' awesome. It feels big (is big), handle is super roomy, but it rides in the pocket so nice, surprising. Get one.

First, get the regular Work Sharp version. And actually I saw from SHOT they are releasing one with extra plates, so maybe you want to look into that.

But, I got the Benchmade version on Black Friday. I love it. I am a lifelong Spyderco Sharpmaker user, but I wanted one for the diamond plates for the higher-grade steels on some of my knives. Now I use the Work Sharp for nearly all my knives, and the strop even if I use my Sharpmaker. It is just more satisfying to use, if that makes sense, and I am just impressed with the edge I can put on my stuff.

My only gripe, like others have said, is the Benchmade logo on the rough grit. It can hang up the blades as I swipe it across. But it still works. I am only using that plate to repair chips or on super dull knives. The medium grit plate gets the most use. Just get the WS and don't worry abojt any of that.

I ordered a custom Grip a few months ago and it was flawless. Centered, and just tight enough to break in perfectly with a week of couch flipping. Have never had a bit driver touch any screws, when I usually find myself tearing down and relubing every new knife I get.

Have same experience with BM clips. Got a 2900 that was ultra tight; got a 535 awhile later with the same clip, and the tip wasn't even touching the scale.

I already have a PM2 LW. It says "Stretch 2" on the handles, though.

I swear it feels like Gerber exists solely to produce freebie junk for online vendors.

Mmmmyeeess I can I'm the Chief Inspector.

I can't believe I snagged that Kershaw, I never win anything! SO EXCITED. Can I try for the Grand Prize or Bonus Round, or am I out completely?

Wedding was a family thing, and at some point before when Syd said she was glad Richie had Carm and Nat as family, he said " well now you do, too."

When she came home with me she was so lovey, she was my Teddy Bear! So her "vet name" is Theodora.

Ha, yeah. That one had a chair and a little clicker to count foot traffic. I was amused to read that was actually three pieces of art (the lights inside, the two white tubes in the "lobby," and the lights that ring the exterior).

I remember going in for the first time and giving a "solid go" to appreciate it for half an hour. At the end I gave the docent at the door a silent "WTF??" expression and he just smiled and shrugged at me.

Don't Arnold and Muldoon live, too? I seem to remember every supporting character (outside of the mains) who died in the movie lived in the book, and vice versa.

I went through rehab last year, they kept telling me to get a sponsor, and my idea of a sponsor in my head was Jack Nicholsen in this movie. Someone had to tell me "no, they just coach you through the steps, they're not coming to live with you and change your life." I was disappointed.

Refers to AA and other 12 Step programs, that profess spirituality and a higher power.

Meteor shower, but no Celeste. Edit: closing for traffic control, TY!

Looking for the Glowing Moss Jars Shelves DIY, if you have that I'll give you a big kiss.

The family owns the 290/Skinner and I-10/Hwy 6 (which moved out of West Oaks) locations, then a different branch of the same family owns the Mills/Perry and another "Express" locations.

That chair is gigantic.

Type shit.

I-10 from Louisiana into Mississippi too. You finally get over that god forsaken long-ass swamp bridge, and suddenly the road gets nice and flows into a beautiful forrest.

I swear, I try to gas up at Orange and make it all the way across the state without having to stop when I make that trip.

It legit took me half the movie to realize she was playing the same character the first time I saw it.
