It’s just really good. What’re you carrying today?

It’s just really good. What’re you carrying today?
Oh boy…
This is my third Talon and this might become the user of the group. Idk still deciding.
I’m done for a little while, hopefully until Blade Show West
Carrying this, and my TRM Atom with contoured CF scales (lizard skin)
***Edit: Zirblast***
This was my first zirc finished blade / frame and was wondering how durable this coating is.
Will it hide wear and tear?
TRM’s solid entry into the world of autos.
They make some great products and this is no exception.
Pros:
• Super snappy (satisfying action)
• Nice button access*
• Great blade steel (MC) and geometry
• Best clip retention on their lineup of knives imo
• Easy to carry / Lightweight
Cons:
• Button does not require much pressure to deploy
(Some may find this concerning - doesn’t concern me too much personally)
• Slight up / down blade play
• Some blade lash when in closed position
Overall rating: 7.5/10
1.) Hawk Knives Talon
2.) BladeHQ Exclusive Large Sebenza 31
3.) TRM Atom
Which 3 knives have you carried the most during the last few months?
Took my gf to San Diego for her birthday (weekend trip). Brought some classics with us 🔥
Fun fact: this was my first Sebenza 21 that I got in 2017. Crazy to think it’s almost been 10 years.
I’ve had this auto XM-18 for a while and I’m always stunned. Such a good knife.
From the action, fit n finish, and aesthetics, this is one of my favorite autos. Hits all the marks for me.
Oh baby, this thing is so nice. I’ve owned multiple Koenigs over the years but this is my first non-flipper mini Arius.
So sweet. What’re ya’ll carrying this fine Sunday?
