Ti Folder II

When you hear about folders feeling like they are ‘moving on glass’ (when opening n closing)

…this is what this knife feels like

-Ameight Preyert

Holy “I can’t spydie flick this thing Batman!”

Just unboxed this beauty and it has the strongest detent of any budget baddie I own

Does anyone know the maker?
Tyia

Asher Knives Douglas Ti

Really happy with this purchase…think I saw another Reddit post showcasing this brand and thought I’d give them a try.

It’s a high quality build and the blade is razor thin and slicey

I love me some “plain jane” Ti folders

A Tale of Two Steels:
Real Steel AD10 & LionSteel Nano

I am relatively new to knife collecting so I’ve never held an AD10. I can’t tell you how solid and beefy feeling this knife is. After learning how to use the triad lock and realizing the blade will not guillotine your fingers off; i’m so happy I got this knife. Can’t wait to abuse it.

In regards to the Lionsteel; I have a soft spot in my heart for Italian products. The Nano is definitely a cool fifth pocket knife.

Both were extremely slicey right out the box!

Ketuo mini griffin g10
(Under $80)
Very fun, unique looking knife, makes an addicting clanking/tinging sound when it drops shut/flings open
Very slicy right out the box cut some cardboard and paper and no snagging on the edge

Just staring out into the ether, enjoying my privileged life. (Gonna get some manscaping done and pick up a nice bottle of Colt 45 malt liquor and a pack of swishers)
