Traded my single-edge, tiger stripe Vehement Knives trailing point in matte OD micarta and black liners for this double-edge satin trailing point with polished black linen micarta, mosaic pins, and slate grey liners. And my Carothers Performance Knives 8" Shiv 2.0 arrived, this was a preorder...

These two trailing points, customs by Vehement Knives. #7 on top in "OG Tiger Stripe" CPM154, OD micarta, black liners, hollow pins and tapered tang. #6 on the bottom in "Blackwash" CPM154 with a serrated back edge, buffed black and green micarta, black liners, hollow brass pins, and tapered...

Nothing wrong with it in my opinion if the maker isn't trying to deceive people into thinking it's something it's not. That is a great contrast between the core and the cladding. It has a faint Kiku Matsuda vibe.

That's intriguing, tell me more about that one! Is that stainless/carbon san mai or just etching to get the appearance? Who is the maker?

Lionsteel makes some incredible modern traditionals. I believe CollectorKnives got them kicked off on that bandwagon with an exclusive request for a spear point Barlow in M390 with titanium bolsters and liners.

INCOMING! Waited 37 months for this book order. Vehement Knives Corsair. Blade: 6.5" CPM154, satin "Tigerlypse" finish, fuller, tapered tang. OAL: 11.5" Guard: Distressed brass, soldered. Handle: Bone paper micarta, mosaic pins, brick red fiber liners. Also for anyone interested in the...

New grail day. I am big on Carothers Performance Knives, but short of a few truly one-off things I'll almost certainly never be able to own (there is a 10" full integral CPM3V dagger with four lobed micarta handle inserts that is truly one-of-a-kind and would probably be $15,000 if its owner...

Well, I've always loved it when a plan comes together.

Forgot to share these. Les George Knives, a VECP and two MK3s. They consistently have the nicest action of any knives I've owned, and that's on phosphor bronze washers, not even bearings. Koenig is the only thing that comes close, and they're 1.5-2x the price.

I like how the Mini-14 handles and its resemblance to the M1 carbine that I also love. But I own AR-15s and no Mini-14s. Yet, I suppose.

I really wanted one of these for nostalgia's sake. Carried one around Ft. Benning for a while, after all.

Sure, and I agree about the size - an Airweight is roughly comparable to the guns you mention, but in my case the difference maker is the loaded weight. Obviously a Hellcat or P365 is superior as a defensive gun, since it carries more ammunition that is more powerful, but the 'more ammunition'...

I think it's cool and different. I can't get over the resemblance to a Crosman air gun, though.

BUL is definitely one of the better entry-level 1911s in terms of build quality. They're known for their double-stack competition 2011s in the European circuit, but relatively unknown in the States.

I never said they were new or unique to the Lipsey's guns, I just said they were superior to any of the micro semiauto factory sights. I'll grant that this is an opinion, and I'll grant that Springfield calls the Hellcat a micro gun, but a loaded Hellcat weighs about 7 oz. more than a loaded...

Which factory micro semiautos have stock serrated U-notch rear sights and XS tritium dot sights?

I actually have one highly specific reason to consider the new .32 H&R Mag J-frame. I've been wanting a gun for distance running, and a J-frame or LCR has some advantages over the other mouse gun options. I would carry it in a fanny pack hydration belt with no reloads (so the sixth round would...

That's unfortunate, remember him from a lot of gun forums over the years. RIP.

You know what I'd really like? A Mini-14 gussied up in M1 carbine replica furniture like they did with the 10/22.

I got two 112s as well LOL. Should have gotten two 110s, but now I'll have a 110/112 set and a 112 for my special pile of nice-ish knives. I like to keep a few knives on hand if I run into someone I like a lot who expresses an interest or a need in having a good knife, an extra premium 112 would...
