Added a wing to the PC for a 4th mag and added a double mag pouch on the left hand of cummerbund to toss some water in. Hitting the property this weekend will see how comfortable this is for extended wear

Wanna move my REK sparrow black dlc and snakeskin carbon fiber, their most attractive config imo. Definitely the best front flipper action I’ve interacted with, really smooth closing action and flies open. Easy to first finger roll open this one. Second owner, purchased off the swap. Was sold to me as like new, but when I received it there was a very small roll in the very tip of the blade I never tried to sharpen away. Not super noticeable but definitely have caught it when opening packages, which is about the extent of the cut with this one. Carried a few times outside the house, this was mainly a lazy day sweatpants or gym shorts carry. Never disassembled, super lightweight knife, no blade play and centered, original box and stuff looking for $230 can ship today if purchased before 1pm

Got a few for sale today starting with the REK sparrow black dlc and snakeskin carbon fiber, their most attractive config imo. Definitely the best front flipper action I’ve interacted with, really smooth closing action and flies open. Easy to first finger roll open this one. Second owner, purchased off the swap. Was sold to me as like new, but when I received it there was a very small roll in the very tip of the blade I never tried to sharpen away. Not super noticeable but definitely have caught it when opening packages, which is about the extent of the cut with this one. Carried a few times outside the house, this was mainly a lazy day sweatpants or gym shorts carry. Never disassembled, super lightweight knife, no blade play and centered, original box and stuff looking for $250
Next is a benchmade proper wearing shipwrecked copper scales. Second owner on this one as well, but first owner on the scales and I did the patina on them. Disassembled for scale swap, only light cutting by me, blade is still nice and sharp. Carried in an included big idea design slip. Pretty sure I have the box. Looking for $130
Finally is a trio of some of my favorite knives ever made. I honestly thought I’d never sell these and I think the price kinda reflects that, although this is exactly what I paid for all 3 individually over the years. I also only want to sell these to someone in a bundle for the time being, figure I don’t exactly have to or necessarily want to move them, but will give them to a good home if someone wants all 3. First is the pena bravo in mokuti and titanium, I am at least third owner but this one has been in my possession for some years now. No idea for sure how many in this config were made, I was told 50 but no way to verify that online that I can find. Beautiful backspacer and clip, phenomenal action opening but especially closing just drops shut with a tiny shake. No blade play, centered. Beautiful bead blasted scales, pretty sure I’ve disassembled to clean. Can’t remember if I put skiffs in or not. Next is the pena mokuti mula. This was a cranes cutlery exclusive, limited to 100 models, this is #23. Second owner but been mine for years now. Beautiful pocket clip, one of the nicest I have ever seen and the backspacer is just 👌🏼. 90% sure I put skiffs in this one, definitely been disassembled whether it has skiffs or not. Phenomenal size for edc, slightly bigger than a small sebenza with a similar blade pattern as the insingo. I carried this a fair amount but took good care of it, didn’t do much cutting and what I did wasn’t anything crazy. Last up is the mokuti alacran, can’t find a ton to clarify this one either but I was told they only made 25 of these configuration. Again not sure if that’s 100% or not just what I was told years ago. Atleast third owner but been mine for years. Got a few snails on this one, definitely been carried but light cutting, definitely disassembled pretty sure skiffs installed. The inlays on this one are absolutely gorgeous and the pocket clip is probably the nicest I have ever seen. Blade is centered and action is great, don’t let my fumble fool you the thing is a rocket. The alacran is the best knife ever made imo, I’ve owned 4 of them now. I want $800 for all 3 Penas. Not separating at this moment. Have boxes for all 3

Got a few quality budget options up for sale today, have better pictures and videos which can be provided upon request
First up is a seiko mod utilizing seiko NH36 movement with full namoki parts list, very attractive white wave dial which does have minor damage to the minute markers at the 12. Incredible lume on this dial. Watch has been worn and shows typical desk diver wear, nothing major nothing deep just minor standard dings. on leather band with butterfly clasp, have some darker leather along with a few natos for this one. 37mm case with 18mm straps sits comfortably on the wrist. Looking for $100 on this one, with movements getting so expensive this is far cheaper than the parts list alone
Next up is a citizen eco drive corso, white 38mm dial on a two tone bracelet. Got this one off the swap, been worn around a bit in rotation but not too often. The only two times I have ever won money in a casino was wearing this watch, for what that’s worth. Sized for a 7.25ish wrist, should have all spare links for this one as well. Looking for $100
Next up is a citizen quartz chrono, unsure of exact model name as this was a gift some years ago. Dial is too big for my preference at 42mm. Sized to my wrist, and never worn outside of the house, should have all spare links for this one as well. Looking for $75
Finally a nautica quartz model with a dune dial, very similar to the new Tudor ranger to me. Unsure of exact model number, as this was also a gift. But larger case dial, I’d say 40mm or so but not positive. Needs a new battery, been a real long time since this came out of the drawer. 100m water resistance and a surprisingly smooth screw down crown would make for a nice beater or boat watch. Looking for $50
Seems like the 3 mag elastic shingle has quickly become the hot new norm to sit on top of the placard, instead of running a slimmer GP pouch
I’ve always been a GP up front guy, but playing around with a new placard setup this week, going to run quad mags as the base, fast mag on left, and got a cheap elastic shingle to play around with for the remaining 3 mags vs putting a GP there
Just curious on the thoughts for those who run this setup, or don’t, and why
Anybody know of any pouch similar to this that’s not 55 fuckin dollars? I would like to fit some smokes onto my kit, and these L4 seem perfect to utilize dead space but man I can’t bring myself to spending $150 on 3 pouches.
The pouch is offset so you can mount the molle behind another pouch, and the smoke fits in between that dead space.
Im debating just some Amazon special wing extenders or something instead but figured I’d ask the group. DM sidekick is an option but looking for molle over Velcro, although I can make Velcro work
So I got a knockoff JSTA the other day and had one of the sandwich bag type admin pouches laying around, and realized they’re about the same size so wanted to see how it lined out
With the sandwich bag inside the main compartment, i now have good space in front of the zippered pouch to separate some items (pic 2 thinking battery sleeve on the Velcro pouch and toss batteries up here), the second little area in the back of the main pouch (pic 3), plus the zipper sandwich pouch itself to store more sensitive stuff I’d rather have a zipper on (pic 4). Still able to use the mags in the back same as before
I feel like this is big brain use of the space. I also feel like this is just trying to do too much and unnecessary. We’ll be hitting the range this weekend and playing around, but curious your thoughts
First time shipwrecking on this benchmade proper

Got a few up today first is a benchmade tagged out in the new elmax blade. Catch and release for me got this one off the swap and received last night, actually really like this a lot compared to the bugout and bailout just know I won’t carry it so off it goes. Second owner no cut or carry by me, still very sharp. One scuff on spine of the blade not very noticeable but it’s there, few scuffs on the pocket clip. Still pretty darn sharp, action is decent little off center but the pivot is on the looser end and I didn’t mess with it. Looking for $110
Next is the bundle, first is a civivi lumi, really fun little front flipper. First owner cut and carried some this was my sweatpants knife for a bit. Some minor wear here and there but overall really nice shape. Next inclusion is a twosun knife that for the life of me I cannot remember or find the model number. Nice large titanium frame lock with a beefy D2 tanto blade. Bought this as a cheap carry round town knife and it might have made it out of the house twice. Second owner on this one. Finally is an AD20.5 in AUS10, first owner bought from demko. Cut a few boxes with this one, first owner in really good shape. Asking $100 for the bundle of 3 SOLD
