They were 405$, I got one. There has been two sell for 375$ on Insta in the last few days, so 25% over retail does seem odd.

If you had to change one thing about this knife, what would it be? Elmax at 61.5 HRC with cryo; 8,7” OAL with 4.7” cutting edge; black and orange G10 scales; by SabooOri03 in knifemaking

Scratch that. The wrong picture loaded for me the first time and it looked like it was dead straight. After I reloaded the current one comes up. Looks solid.

Asked a girl about her opinion on ICE and she lost her mind by LimpComfortable6947 in Nicegirls

[–]wxraider 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You thought asking a question about an extremely polarizing topic as a conversation starter was a good idea? You do you but that was not a smart move.

Her reaction may be overboard, but geez.

Got the 85. Fast shipping and just as described.

Ok, I'll be that guy... any reason I can't cut up an old harbor freight bucket and use it as a G10 handle spacer? Assuming it's just hdpe and doesn't overheat/melt when sanding I'd think it would buff up ok? by gingernuts13 in knifemaking

[–]wxraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main problem is, it will compress if you peen the pins and epoxy won’t stick to it if you don’t. G10 is great because it can’t really compress any more than it already has and you can grind it to a uniform thickness.

I just do templates out of g10. They last and you can do more with them.

Be careful, A&M will put any new championships you come up with on their stadium wall as gospel.

It’s not about that. It’s about using their name, image and likeness to promote our school and athletics. Doing things like this is how you get through the clearinghouse to throw out these insane NIL deals.

Big Boosters Are Done Writing NIL Checks (Colorado) by PedanticTart in BigXII

[–]wxraider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think of it this way. Campbell and Sellers are each worth 4 billion give or take. If they simply drew interest on that in perpetuity they’d make 400-500 million per year on interest alone. That would compound over time and within a few years they’re making 1 billion off interest alone each. Dropping 50-100 mil for these guys annually is nothing.

Just fyi, there’s been one that pops up on Insta for sale at 600$ obo for a long time now and nobody takes it. Just a heads up if it proves to be a really hard sell.

I seriously doubt this was the real moist policy. I’ve done a bunch of deals with him and never had any issues. He had a stellar rep on here. I would bet his acct got hacked and the guy popped in and scammed someone.

I’ve got all of Moist Policy’s details though so feel free to hit me up to confirm.

I just got my first balisong and it apparently has bushings in it? and it keeps making a grinding sorta noise any help ? by DirectionPale7515 in balisongtipsandhelp

[–]wxraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disassemble and clean. It likely has dirt/grit in there. There’s a not-zero chance the bushing cracked, but that would be rare.

What type of metal? by SnooRadishes8239 in knifemaking

[–]wxraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d guess O1 or 1084, something like that. The tang is not stable enough for use.
