Queen used D2 in some of their blades. Nice steel, it holds an edge well.

The shape and contour is what is really attractive here.
Half face blades Crow Jr and then the PneumoBeautiful.
What is it?
So good! For those who know. It is hahaPneumo... Great name for that tool.
I’ve been thinking about trying to pick something up from one of the “drops” these guy do. Could you share your impression of those pieces?
So I grabbed the spike which I looove and the Crow Jr which the blade is amazing. I’m loving it. I’m not a massive fan of the felt lined Kydex as much it might need a little heating and tightening once the felt wears in but I def kinda wana down the road grab another blade from them.I’ve been thinking about trying to pick something up from one of the “drops” these guy do.

I had an original mini tanto I got from stoddards in Boston 80’s?.So… I ended up sending back the Benchmade Leuku I bought a few weeks ago. Nice knife but the luster started to wear off so I cut my losses and sent it back for a refund less my shipping charges to and from ( about $12.00). Began admiring my Ka-Bar 1245 partially serrated 8” Tanto and got bit by that bug again. I‘ve got this on the way to scratch my tanto itch - Cold Steel Master Tanto!
I used to love going into Stoddards and slowly checking out all the beautiful eye candy they had throughout the store! Stoddards was right up there with Hilton’s Tent City - ahhh…the good old days!!!! Man I’m getting old….I had an original mini tanto I got from stoddards in Boston 80’s?.
Sold it and got a good price. Wish I still had it.
could probably do a tracheotomy with it too... or, clear out an ear infection.So good! For those who know. It is haha
I like Kershaw's for EDC...Gifted my Blur to my brother last week. Got back and tried a lot of knives before purchasing another Blur.
I guess I am a Kershaw fanboy.

I think stoddards moved from downtown crossing to newton center? I don’t know if they are still open. I think they used to have a place in the Copley mall, too?I used to love going into Stoddards and slowly checking out all the beautiful eye candy they had throughout the store!

Thanks for the info. I’ll have to make it out that way. The website wouldn’t load so I snapped a pic from the worldwide web.I think stoddards moved from downtown crossing to newton center? I don’t know if they are still open. I think they used to have a place in the Copley mall, too?
Nice. They used To have a great selection of safety and straight razors and accessories, too. Got me into shaving with a safety razor.Thanks for the info. I’ll have to make it out that way. The website wouldn’t load so I snapped a pic from the worldwide web.

Quick review: PROS: Fit & finish is great! Knife feels good and natural in your hand - you know you’re carrying something that’s solid. This knife looks as good as it feels! Price (IMO) is excellent at &119.00 off Amazon plus one day delivery - can’t get a nice toy like this in your hands fast enough. CON: The sheath is OK but kind of noisy - a decent leather sheath would solve that problem for short money.So… I ended up sending back the Benchmade Leuku I bought a few weeks ago.
