Your New Knife!

She paid too much and spent more money than I would have but it's the thought that counts. My wife bought me a Benchmade PSK Carbon Fiber and Black G10 for Christmas. Must have been a good salesman at KTP to get her to spend that kind of $$ on a knife. Beautiful knife. Super clean edge and sharp. I'm not super knowledgable about high end knifes but there is no doubt this is the best knife I have owned.

That knife is awesome! She is a keeper. The wife too!
 
My 2 Hawks finally arrived! And my Gransfors mini hatchet for hiking came too. Both are incredibly sharp right out of the gates.
Have a couple Gransfors axes. Honestly, I have no business owning them as they get barely any use, but man are they nice for fondling.

I'll be blaming you for my upcoming hatchet purchase...
 
I'd say it isn't as useful as other knives I've got with Wharncliffe blades. The blade is just a little too long and it feels like the point is just a bit too far away. Maybe I'll get more used to it.
It's a little long-ish looking, but I bet you will like the convenience of the OTF with that style blade. I use my clone as an everyday beater, which is a good use for it.
 
Placed an order for one earlier today (BladeHQ)... I like my Hera, but I've been wanting one of the new generations of Microtech OTF's for a while. Since it came back in stock, I decided to grab it. Now I just need to see about getting the Livewire (Kershaw) sent in to get repaired (one of the spring broke after far too few movements). Only thing the Kershaw had over the Microtech was the ease of moving the button. Pretty sure the new series from Microtech took care of that.
 
It has arrived...

Did 2 day UPS shipping on it. Arrived before noon. I'm OK with spending ~$14 to get the faster shipping on it.

Was a little sluggish coming in out of the cold. Letting it warm up a bit took care of that. Now I have two different Microtech knives in my pocket carry rotation. :D
Yeah mine took a few cycles before it became happy.
 
My happy knives are all made of AUS-10 with 15 degree edges. They're kitchen knives from Misen.

The most hilarious knives are the Coolina ads. I dove deep for some actual reviews, and the funniest was from someone whose knives were actually bent. He said they looked like they'd been stomped on by horses while still hot. The video showed that to be a pretty fair assessment.
