The nicest knifemaker in the world died recently...and one of the grandfathers of the "sharpened prybar" tackical knives. I can not think of a nicer guy that I've meet in decades collecting knives to grind a knife. One of my first customs was a Ronin of his and I still have it today...

Guess you missed, "Nor would I respond to such a question from a guest."

And that statement kills any interest in personal wearable armored. Cheaper won't trump better in this use. OTOH, as protection in fixed applications where you can add thickness and weight where price per square meter matters it could be useful in homes, banks, stores, etc.

Not many professional dirt bags in most places so the likelihood of that is low to vanishingly low depending upon the concentration of the professional dirt bags in the community. Still, so is the likelihood of a break in if you take precautions to make the neighbor's look like better targets...

Only those that want to be annoyed by trivialities.

Keep adding BLO and keep rubbing. It will get there and be more satisfying than any shortcut you take.

Guns don't shed, they don't have to be fed, watered, or sat, and people don't have allergies like they do with critters. Lotta folks can't have dogs.

I can't think of any guests that ever asked if I had a gun in every room. Nor would I respond to such a question from a guest.

Dude, you're in the Kizer Friday Club. Dollars to donuts overall you're spending as much as many of us with knife "habits". Now I have a Kizer I don't need because it was "such a deal". 🤪

Welllll, that Original motivated me to grab the Serape G10 version for $55.

Where did you purchase that. That's an outstanding price for a 154CM button lock from Kizer.

A lotta hyperbole.

Nawww, just buy 10 times as many belts! ;-)

You anneal them first so they aren't hard.
