    Someone has to say it - you really know how to match a kydex sheath to a knife. As a (mainly) fixed blade enjoyer, that's impressive. I don't think I've seen anyone get the sheath as right as you have. Damn good job there! 💯

    Outstanding large collection, congratulations. Good presentation, nice speed en compact details, I love it. The ZT 620 tanto is my favorite, although you have many other precious knives. Personally I believe that in a collection like yours there should be at least 1 Strider. They’re some sort of benchmark by now. Great detail that they’re all made in the USA. Greetings from Holland.

      @@steelovan thank you. Have you tries the Paragon Warlock from Ashville Steel? I have one and it is a pretty cool design that is different for sure, but is probably the coolest sounding fidgety knife I've ever had. Caution though, they come a little stiff at first and need broken in before they really get super smooth to use. I cut myself 3 times in the same spot the first two days owning it. Lol. But I kept playing with it and by day 3 it was broken in. If you haven't played with one, I highly recommend it. I went with the standard version in aluminum, but they have titanium versions too, but those are like 3-400 dollars more. I got mine new for 250, think the new ones are starting around 300 base up to 700ish for a high end one. Honestly I wouldn't pay the titanium price on it. Both are the same blade steel, and the aluminum handle weighs less and still functions the same. Pretty cool design though, fun too.
