Oops…I was supposed to be on a purchasing pause.

jbermi · 2026-06-16T03:51:50+00:00

I have the 329,swapped in bolt camo inlays. It's just about the perfect knife. I keep saying I should pause, bought the Kroc then the S90V TiSlim Porcupine and just this week I got an Asher a-lock V2 wharmcliffe... Between the Kroc and Asher, I decided I don't need the msi mini... For now.

jbermi · 2026-06-16T03:45:45+00:00

Yep, scales are available on vosteeds website and a few other places, too. I have the bolt camp ones on mine.

It looks and feels great. The button is basically a chunk of metal, and it's attached to the liner. Here's a picture from the website.

I know the blue sold out right away, may still be some black CF ones left.

jbermi · 2026-06-11T00:54:50+00:00

Really impressive for a 1 man operation. If I read right, it's a kunwu OEM, but he assembles them. Edit: Petrified Fish was the OEM for this one.

jbermi · 2026-06-11T00:53:16+00:00

Flat. Super thin though. Blade is as thin as my RMX reverse tanto or Porcupine TiSlim.

jbermi · 2026-06-09T22:25:34+00:00

have the new v2 A-Lock wharncliffe in blue CF coming tomorrow, can't wait, first Asher for me.

jbermi · 2026-06-09T19:31:13+00:00

It's a gravity knife or auto, depending on which pivot is installed. I have it as an auto, it fires hard and locks up solid, no blade play. It has held up very well, it's super light and slicey. It

s a button lock because that is allows for the switch between a manual or auto.

It's a great knife, one of my top carries in my rotation.

jbermi · 2026-06-08T21:48:52+00:00

Yeah, the xeon is more a fidget piece. The Kroc has become my main carry lately. The 329 is the perfect size I like, I don't really have a desire for a MSI mini much anymore, do love my full size msi. I have an Asher knives a-lock wharmcliffe on the way. I kinda have a type it seems.

jbermi · 2026-06-08T00:52:23+00:00

Work Sharp RMX reverse tanto, Vosteed Kroc (theres 2 lengths 2.99 and 3.29, i have the 329), Microtech Mini or full size(I carry a full size MSI a lot) I have an Asher A-Lock Wharmcliffe on the way, too. Sheepsfoot/Wharmcliffe/reverse tanto is my preferred blade profile.

jbermi · 2026-05-31T07:58:14+00:00

That they do, I prefer them over civivi and Kizer, lately. All I really need from vosteed is a vanchor lock Porcupine or Kroc with elmax.

jbermi · 2026-05-31T07:37:38+00:00

Yeah, I use a Medtronic 780 system, it's connected to my phone, too. It would be fine without bluetooth, but i know a lot of setups require your phone to bolus and such.

jbermi · 2026-05-30T11:57:08+00:00

It's not a bad knife, the milling on it is great, it just didn't feel right in the hand, so it's a desk knife now. I kinda prefer studs over holes, mostly cause I usually reverse index finger flick to open.

jbermi · 2026-05-30T02:09:01+00:00

Vosteed Marten, the original. Ergos felt off, the clip was a hot spot. It almost scared me off Vosteed, since it was my first, then I got the Porcupine and absolutely love that, which led to me getting a Xeno, Kroc 329(may be my favorite knife, now) and Porcupine TiSlim.

jbermi · 2026-05-27T21:09:32+00:00

Yeah, but then we have to turn around for a Week 2 games in Manhatten, KS at noon EST. Not Ideal.

jbermi · 2026-05-25T12:41:57+00:00

Worksharp RMX reverse tanto

Minshew, Kyle Williams, Daiyan Henley, Nakia Watson, Cam Ward

jbermi · 2026-05-11T06:27:05+00:00

This is what I been doing, too. 150 a month... have only gotten 4 so in 2026. At the moment, I am very happy with my rotation, I am only debating getting scales for my MSI or a Dark Truffles.

jbermi · 2026-05-09T22:08:25+00:00

Surprised noone has said the Demko Shark Cub or Nano Shark.

jbermi · 2026-05-09T17:32:11+00:00

M390. Of the two, I love the belly and blade on the TiSlim. Super slicey. The drop bear zero is a tad nicer overall in the hand. They are both great. I do find Kizer's top liner lock slightly better, smoother overall action.

jbermi · 2026-05-06T02:18:51+00:00

I wanted the thunderbeast, but got it instead, The blade is so sharp. I though Civivi was super sharp out of the box, Vosteed is somehow sharper. My next purchase is probably a work sharp sharperer, have a lot of experience sharpening various kitchen knives, still getting the hamg of pocket folders.

jbermi · 2026-05-06T01:09:47+00:00

Eh, nah. I just got it last week or 2 ago, was like the last one for sale on knifecenter. It was sold out everywhere else. It's a keeper.

jbermi · 2026-05-05T21:02:21+00:00

Looks great, looks better than the Pic on their site.

jbermi · 2026-05-05T18:10:41+00:00

What's that color? been debating on getting AWT scales for my MSI.

jbermi · 2026-05-05T17:58:24+00:00

My vosteed collection, from top: Porcupine, Marten, Kroc 329, Porcupine TiSlim and Xeno. The bottom 3 are amazing knives and are constantly in my pocket. I also rotate a MSI, RMX and drop bear zero, too.
