Look forward to it.

I have never been more afraid of anything in my entire life.

We are all in deep, deep trouble.

I feel like knife disassembly should happen in one of those enclosed/sealed chemistry containers where you can see inside but it's closed and you have to use gloves from the outside. No more lost parts!

Edit: they're actually called a glove box. go figure.

That's great. I was going to use a D2 Elementum this year just to see how well it does.

That side view makes it look...friendly? Is that the right word? I like the idea of an EDC bali and this really appeals. However, I have to measure that against the knowledge that I'll for sure either slice my fingers off or drop it and stab myself in the foot. Owning a balisong is not for me, but admiring from afar is good enough. :)

What a wonderful disaster of a knife. Your service to this community is incalculable.

Is this better held in a pinch grip at the pivot? I feel like holding this in any sort of "normal way" would be painful as you've only got one scale pressing into your fingers.

Every knife is a pocket knife if you have big enough pockets!

Great review, as always. I am always on the lookout for a useful pocket fixed blade knife.

Thinking back on it, I'm not sure why I didn't buy gas station/flea market knives when I was a teen. I guess it never really occurred to me as I "already had 2 knives" (both for Scouts). My brain hadn't yet figured out that you can actually buy more knives than you can ever possibly use! πŸ˜‚

I hear ya. And I certainly used it while I was still in Scouts. If there is a good way that I can protect the engraving, I'd use it but I really don't want to see that date lost.

There are so many "good" ones to choose from though! From "very impractical" to "wildly impractical" to "no, seriously, you are trying to sell this?"
