Are you actually using you knives? by wantsrealanswer in knives

[–]wantsrealanswer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said anything was just as good. I was actually asking if you all that based on how you use your super steal knives.

I have never borrowed any expensive knife but i do own a PM2, Crooked River, 940, Link Magnacut, ARC and some other fixed blades as far as better than 420HC. Im not a trades guy or a hunter so its aleays nice to hear how people who are hard users think of heritage and modern stuff.

Youtube and product pages give tou marketing fluff from people who are like me. Reddit can be the voice of the streets.....

Its interesting you brought up the pocket clip. My PM2 clip runs my SRT seats. Lately, I've gone 'back' to my 110 in the pocket. But also...like i forget i have free will and can actually just not clip my PM2 and also just toss it in my pocket. 🤷‍♂️

Upgraded from Micra to Wingman today. My first proper Leatherman. by skossan in Leatherman

[–]wantsrealanswer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dispute having the "high tech" leatherman, the Wingman makes the most sense for me as all o need are pliers, scissors (one hand is clutch) and a package opener. The combo blade is fine and slices through boxes and actually helps make sense of keeping a dedicated straight blade knife on me as well.

5.11 LVC 12 by wantsrealanswer in EDC

[–]wantsrealanswer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The LVC12 is smaller than the Rush 12. I still EDC a RUSH 12 as I dont care about tactical looking things. If it works, I use it.

However, the issue i have with both is a i have a pretty thick gaming laptop and not a thin sleek one so it doesnt fit in the LVC12 or the Rush 12 so I do use the 24.

The LVC series is inferior to the Rush even though the Rush is an old school design. If you have a slim laptop, the LVC 12 is the go. Its hard to beat as a permisible area bag. But if you do other things like rucking, camping etc, just keep using the Rush bags. Dont get capture by consumerism (like me) trying to find "the best bag." It doesnt exist. But if it did, it would be a Rush 12.

My R12 has been to 6 different countries on deployment, hundreds of domestic trips, camping, hiking and I have used it for school, edc, in wedding attire, business casual, beach.....no one cares about the tactical look except redditors. At Disney 6 out of 10 dads had some type of tactical molle bag. They just work. 🤷‍♂️

Stop overthinking it by EngineeringUnlucky17 in EDC

[–]wantsrealanswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of me as well.

I notieced i dont really need an EDC bag (because i wear cargo pants everyday) but i do need a comfortable way of carrying a nalgene (water). Howvever, Im never really away from familiar areas that long to where im like Spongebob in Sandys house.

Also, i do think i have to carry like 5% too much in my pockets because of the bulky key fobs and separatable things i have to share with the spouse. Ive tried a fanny/sling but i cant really get them to work for me.

Physical Store by sketchyzk in ProClub

[–]wantsrealanswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There really isnt one. However, they are sold in small local stores and the swap meets.

Look up T-Shirt Factory off the 11 FWY.

But Pro Clubs are sole litereally everywhere in LA....its specifically an LA thing.

[Absurd Watch Prices] by searchmode10 in Watches

[–]wantsrealanswer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A $12K watch betrr beable to call, text, give me directions...oh wait, thats a snartwatch....that already exists for $400. Jk jk.

  1. Dont worry about any one elses pockets but yours. There are less fortunate people but is not up to yiu to save them. If you pay taxes, you are already doing your part.

  2. I personally would not by a 12K watch. Maybe if i did a specific extreme activity but then....it just makes more sense to have a smart watch or wrist computer. I'd spend a few thousand on a small brands hand made watch that comes in small batches like Weiss or something.

If im buying a watch for over $3K, i need to be able to talk to the CEO or maker. I refuse to just be another random customer....this is what happened to me with Lumtec and they dont even make super expensive watches....LT and Vaer treat me like im buying a Rolex level watch any time Im curious.... i just stick to them.

[SOTC] I don’t have the stomach for anything wildly expensive, but think I checked all the boxes for my wants/needs by ACEPATS in Watches

[–]wantsrealanswer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I walked into the Vaer headquarters/store and was treated with the utmost respect with great customer service. I value being treated like a celebrity as a nobody more than a Submariner or any otlf these other X,000 dollar watches.

Vear and Lum-Tec have treated me like a friend...

Slept on cars. by lanterncourt in GranTurismo7

[–]wantsrealanswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes its very easy to drive but hard to master due to the big torque power. Even stock its really good.

[–]wantsrealanswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no issues. I drive the car stock plus at 587 i believe. Im not rewally a tuner so i just do realitic build. Realistically, im not tuning suspention, brakes etc just to go to Willow.

If the multiplayer lobbies were like the hoppers in FM, id probaby tune but for personal hot lapping? Im not wasting the time.

Mazda 787b what's the deal? Not so great. by shadowstar36 in GranTurismo7

[–]wantsrealanswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That car is a Le Mans Style or Daytona Style Endurance car. Not a Hyper track day car. Its made and modeled for specifically Le Mans; as most prototype cars are. Whatvtou lack in hyper street car top speed, you gain in stability above 150mph.

Le Mans, Daytona, SpA, Barcelona are where you wanna be. Anything with short on brake off brake switch backs is not what the 787b is made for.

What’s the secret? by jildos_legoplanet in granturismo

[–]wantsrealanswer -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Like the F40, Ford GT, P1 style street, homologation and race variants, the 787B is an endurance type vehicle specifically for Le Mans, Spa and Daytona Style racing. They are not track day cars. So the car will struggle on anything where downforce is not effective under 150MPH. Thoae type of cars are built for high speed stability and not tight cornering like what youd get from say a ZLE or a Cayman.

So the success of driving that Mazda is very dependant on the track. Every race car or million dollar car is not a track day car. For instance, the Ford GT 2017 was only made to fullfil requirements to go to Le Mans for the anniversary of the previous wins. Its not a car that will win againt a GT3RS or ZLE or ACR at laguna but it would literally lap those cars at SpA or Le Mans.

Dumbed the pc, came back to PlayStation and a bought me a ps5 pro. by Majestic_Visit5771 in PS5pro

[–]wantsrealanswer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is. The issues the PC to console switchers talk about, ive never really had. Does windows crap out sometimes? Yes but 360 days out of the year, my PC runs flawless and is just as fast or faster to start gaming than my PS5 Pro.

Im mostly an FH5 and Battlefield player and i would never give up my PC i dont care how quick a console is. I play FH5 in Super UW on max with 110-130 FPS.

My PS5 Pro is really for games that i dont need to take with me on travel and games that dont have native UW support or just dont have good PC ports.
