My daily carry is usually a Benchmade 930 kulgera, though I carried a 5500 auto mini presidio when I was in Oregon and could have autos. Both discontinued by now, of course, so I'll be hosed if I lose them. The 930 was tough to find over a decade ago; I bet it's even more difficult now. Still, I don't believe in garage queens; I carry all my knives. Just, some more than others. Using an inferior tool every day because your good one is valuable kinda defeats the value in the first place, to me.

LobsterboyX posted:what is this? im sure its total legal Looks like a Microtech. I'd love to have one too, even drop some decent money on one, but California says no. Well, switchblades aren't illegal to own in CA, just illegal to carry, and to bring into the state. So if you can somehow teleport one here, you can keep it around the house, but that doesn't sound worthwhile to me.

Humphreys posted:Seeing as I'm loving around with the dash already, I have a spare top LCD screen to fiddle with and as my car is hardly stock, why not change the colour of the screen that is now relegated purely to being a clock...(well there's other things including injecting Keep in mind that different colored LEDs usually have different forward voltage drops. If they're run from a constant current driver, you don't need to do anything, but if it's a voltage source with a current limiting resistor you might need a different resistor (or resistors).

Humphreys posted:Cheers for that, I am aware but doesn't hurt to make sure, appreciated. Pretty sure I've ordered spec for spec based on powering the original ones off bench supply with constant current etc. Sounds like you know what's up, then; sorry to presume!

Elmnt80 posted:Anywhosits... Personally, I don't like tantos. They're designed to be strong for stabbing, and that's all. Which is not most of what I use a knife for. As a tradeoff, they have that awkward blade shape that makes slicing more awkward, since there's that inflection point near the tip. I think a normal drop point is pretty useful, since it has a fairly fine tip without being fragile, a useful length of straight blade for cutting things like rope, and a curved belly for starting a slice. I guess there's a reason it's the default blade shape. Sheepsfoot maximizes the straight cutting edge, as long as you don't need to start the cut by poking. If you don't, it might be worth the tradeoff. It does look slick, too. The Leek is a modified wharncliffe, so it has a lot of the benefits of a drop point without the usual downsides of a sheepsfoot. Lots of options out there! I'm not familiar with harpoon as a blade shape; it looks like a drop point that keeps going and raises part of the spine? I guess that's one way of getting a bigger blade on a knife that is overall smaller.

Personally, NYE is more of a "singleness awareness day" than Valentine's Day, so I don't usually look forward to it. At least this year everything's cancelled, so it'll just be a normal evening.
