Sarcasm? try cs tri ad lock, bm axis lock or spyderco compression lock cool2.gif

But of course not for batoning task la.

Batonning can be done most with any knife.
just dont engage the lock. so open it halfway
throw in a few pegs to separate the split and you should be fine.

Todays EDC is zt550, Nitecore D10/D11, carkeys and lighter

Tried it once and thats it. Never again.
One strike on the tip, it straight fold back. That wood too reput i think. Lucky not fully grip on the handle.
Scary as fuk laugh.gif

welp its always good to not baton with a broken knife.
or baton in the first place.
and as always with using knives, always think of where will the knife go if i were to slip

folding knives are broken knives. dont do something that a knife is not made to

like eveready logo.

Went to DSA. non Concealed carry wise,
streamlight was worth visiting,
so was cresdo. watching the intellibeam Fury work in action is interesting.
Fox knives. the Col Mohsin emerson collaboration was nice to me. a bit light though i dont think i would trust that linerlock for hard use. but bladeshape and handle nice (albeit chunky) annoyed the guy enough for him to give me a brochure
Victorinox had a booth. ok lah normal jer. nice to see them show the evolution of the Soldier series.
Bastinelli Knives had nice blades. surprisingly comfy in hand and fast deployment. wasnt a fan of the fixed blade though.
SWAT boots were nice. especially seeing the variations of altamas around.

Guns wise. good lah but not attainable so wont be posted up here. plus i know three things about guns. Jack, Diddly and Squat

@MeToo when did you go?

yeah right now i carry my multitools less and less and opt for a proper folder

feels very naked without my folder when im out lol

the sentiment of having a knife thus it must be a weapon is really annoying

well atleast i had convinced my little brother multiple times why having a blade on your person is a good thing so i give him my old victorinox

i guess the main concern i have is not making people uncomfortable with the idea that im having a knife on me or when i pulled out my knife to use when i need it

i mean aren't you glad that i have a knife the moment you need them for cutting things like this past saturday i use mine to helped unbox my nephew's birthday presents

so from now i look for a small knife which would be less intimidating hopefully

i mean my gerber skin tech is smaller than a regular folding knife out there and my colleague already went apeshit what more if i carry my bigger all stainless shiny sanrenmu

it's the way he reacted is the most annoying thing though

EH NI BAHAYA NI KALAU POLIS NAMPAK KENA TAHAN NI

EH NI KALAU TIKAM ORANG MATI NI

loud enough for other people to hear

no shit sherlock that's why i dont wave it around like a maniac on public and stabbing people casually with it

you're a responsible knife owner. your colleague needs to know this. the same way that you very well could use your car to run him down after office hours. you dont do it because youre a responsible driver.
cars with irresponsbile drivers kill more people than pocket knives ever will.

also. stop hanging out with that colleague.

Just bought my leatherman squirt, man its tiny.

What lube do you use on your tools? I am using Tuf-glide but the smell is very off putting.
*
I have gotten to love the smell of tuf glide. and lithium batteries.

we are actually having this discussion on the cutting edge facebook now,
for lubrication
tuf glide, militec, singer oil, benchmade blue lube, victorinox oil, and a really good one is if you have the fishing lube. daiwa oil that sort of thing
for protection
tuf glide, militec, singer oil, vaseline

my personal preference is fishing reel lube. and tuf glide as corrosion resistance.

I noticed that the tuf-glide lube last very long, but the problem is the smell stays on for a long time.

A month after it still has the lingering smell, i am worried it will transfer to my pants. Since i have some knifes which i store in a ziplock bag, now that bag smells of the lube.
*
the way tuf glide works is that it turns into a powder after it dries up. it does not stay wet like oil. but again i am not bothered by the smell (towards a point I welcome it tongue.gif reminds me that my knvies are well maintained and at thier top of their performance

well its been a few years and there are just under 50 of us being active these days but we ahve been around since the early 2000s at least from the early days over from the australia and asia section of Bladeforums.com to the 5 year stint we had on the Malaysia Knife Forums of which the BBS for that is no longer online.
Most of the administration from the knife forums are now taking care of the Cutting Edge forums. we have an online portal for this but most of the activity happening on the Facebook incarnation of the group.
do come by. we have tons of pocket dumps there as well as posts on eDC related news and activities planned monthly
