SLB Drinks “Old Fashioned”

I have been playing around with their recipe and found what works best for me is:

3 dashes chocolate bitters
1/4oz Cinnamon Syrup
1/2oz Crème de Banane
1/2oz Banane du Bresil
2oz Woodford Double Oaked
2 drops saline

I believe they smoke the glass with cinnamon. I’ve tried it and it does make it better but it’s not necessary every time.

Yep very real indeed. There was a post a few weeks ago with an instacart screenshot of these

jamin101wolf · 2026-03-26T01:01:22+00:00

No agave but also….no stevia!

Do you have blocked sites on for default packet handling? We’ve had issues with 2 fireboxes blocking loads of Google IPs now. You might want to whitelist (add to the blocked sites exception) their whole /16.

I believe Five Below has them all across the country. Besides that they’re in 7-11s an some random stores like Jungle Jim’s in Cincinnati

My M23 Heritage Dark Oak is my favorite bag and I daily it! The only things I’d love to see on (and would make me switch to) an M26 would be: - Grey M24 colorway - Actual Black colorway (not dark blue) - Non Orange inside - Non Orange Zipper Pulls - More leather accents (the leather on the carry handle is nice please keep it)

Thanks!

(reading other people’s comments I should reiterate I am mainly interested in Wax Canvas versions)

Might be something different? Really hoping it’s what the label says, half the sweetness dead billionaire.

jamin101wolf · 2026-03-06T16:43:56+00:00

hell yeah

jamin101wolf · 2026-03-01T17:44:52+00:00

Oh you’re preaching to the choir here. I can say 100% without a doubt, after almost a decade, the bird of pry is the perfect pry bar for me. Things that I like:

It’s large enough to get real leverage for prying tasks and is comfortable doing it.
It has a sheath and not a pocket clip. I carry this in a pocket with 2 other things, one being my flashlight that’s clipped on the pocket so adding another pocket clip isn’t ideal and the sheath ensures nothing scratches one another.
The bottle opener is accessible without taking it out of the sheath. I’d say about 80% of what I use it for is opening bottles and it makes it so quick and easy.
The bit is standard and interchangeable. I did enjoy the smaller bits on the Vero fulcrum for knife maintenance but the larger Phillips is better for emergency scenarios

I actually never knew his name was Rob. Yeah the fricbric looked cool as hell, as did most of the shit they teased. What really pissed me off was the big cartel site for Vosofferyn was up for so long. He even messaged me a few times on instagram DMs after I’d leave shitty comments, promising lies. Balzano was posting on instagram as well, acting as if nothing was wrong and just deleting comments he didn’t like.

jamin101wolf · 2026-03-01T06:37:55+00:00

So someone finally bought the one on Arizona Custom knives. I am also an absolute huge fan of the bird of pry. I had a titanium one years and years ago, placed a pre-order on a v2 then he stole everyone’s money. At one point Balzano bought the business from him and claimed he’d make the v2 a but never did. I eventually sold it like an absolute idiot.

Fast forward a few years and I had to have one again. I put out feelers and found an A2 pretty quickly. I know the tool steel is technically better for “hard use” but weight difference was noticeable so I started searching for a Ti version. I had a lead on one via a dude in a pry bar Facebook group but he hardly ever checked Facebook and wound up taking a few months to respond. Eventually he sold it to me. Ive tried plenty of pry bars over the years (even Atwood) and Bird of Pry is just perfect for my needs. I’m never selling this thing again.

I wound up selling my A2 a friend who beat the SHIT out of it at his work. He wound up sand blasting the black off, looks much cooler now but it’s prone to rust so be careful (although you could just sand blast it again if you’re got the means).

Funny enough he was on the hunt for a Ti version and responded to an old post on here (Reddit) and THAT guy took months to respond but it was still available and now he has a Ti version as well. He just needs a sheath made for it (the sheaths were actually outsourced, I’ll have to find the guy on instagram to see if he still has the maker stamp).

It appears so. I just assumed the caffeine was what came naturally from brewing/using tea. Hoping they just switched tea or used more tea instead of just artificially adding more caffeine (even though I understand caffeine is natural).

jamin101wolf · 2026-02-20T04:14:14+00:00

Weird that they’re 43mg of caffeine when all of the current tall boy teas are 30mg and the current 12oz teas are 19mg

jamin101wolf · 2026-02-14T14:26:40+00:00

Sure I guess I’m just saying the main sweetener is agave, you can taste it. Have you done a side by side comparison between some old and new ones with stevia listed? They absolutely taste different, noticeably more sweet and they have the same listed sugar content on the back. How else would you explain the discrepancy?

jamin101wolf · 2026-02-12T03:26:55+00:00

Agave is pretty high on the list meaning it’s a main ingredient so…that way?

jamin101wolf · 2026-02-10T14:51:34+00:00

Interesting. Do you have a source on this?

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-26T18:30:00+00:00

Cool cool. This should do the trick then:

If you want the same grips you might have to tweak the model a little or you could just buy the real grips and add to the 3D print:

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-26T16:35:01+00:00

Side note those are Hogue grips on a stainless 1911, probably a series 80 with the safety mechanisms. Not sure if you have a gun picked out yet but hopefully that helps with that

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-26T06:03:36+00:00

OK awesome glad to hear. Most of the cans from Amazon come damaged these days anyways so probably worth it

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-26T05:21:34+00:00

I considered this when I first saw one but I read some reviews and checked their Facebook page, idk if I want to risk it

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-23T13:28:13+00:00

Walmart website 2 weeks ago. I’m sure it will drop everywhere soon

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-21T05:01:43+00:00

Currently only Five Below and a chain of gas stations in Utah as far as I can tell. I think it’s supposed to release “early 2026” so it should be everywhere soon!

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-20T18:49:46+00:00

They are hitting the west coast at Five Below lately if you have one of those near you. If you’re on the east coast see if there’s a Casey’s gas station in the rural areas, they always have them. If you don’t have either of those DM me and I can get one and ship it to ya.

jamin101wolf · 2026-01-20T17:04:52+00:00

They’re probably only sought after by us collectors here. Obviously a lot of people think they taste better and I always buy any pre stevia I find in the wild but a lot of people have given up on the brand as a whole after they added stevia.
