I'd love a crusader clip, but I can't understand why their prices are as they are. I know some metalworkers that I expect could do their own interpretations just as well for much less.

I don't know man, some people like Bling on their hard use tools...I'll go so far as a lanyard...which is useful so you don't drop it and ding the blade...but that's all.

I'm not much into it either.

For an occasional carry or something special like an OBS then sure. Ill get something from SF

My work pieces. Probably not so much. Unless pricing appropriate to enhance and I don't have to worry about it. I easily drop one of mine from 10'+ to concrete each week

Ill be interested to hear what the pivot goes for

Maybe Mike has some inside scoop

Haven't heard from Mike in a while...I'll bet he has his hands full with some writing project...

Oh, and don't forget he'd be one of the big organizers for the USN Gathering next month in Vegas...that alone probably eats up some serious time...

I'll bet he still looks in on us once in a while though...

No doubt. Something on that scale takes massive attention to detail I don't envy any of them. I organized pro/amateur whitewater competitions annually with 8 other people. I totally understand

I'd like to make it to the show. I'm in a wedding this year

It was hard enough for the parents to convince them to leave St Thomas

I'd much prefer there than Richmond

Richmond, VA?

You will need protection.

They left St. Thomas US Virgin Islands to move to Richmond VA? Are they insane? All the Rum in San Juan couldn't convince me to do that...

July 20, 2013, 10:22 PM

They did not move to Richmond

Just getting married there
