What's your last knife purchase of the year (2023) ?

[luethge]

I really like this knife but can't get over my aversion to g10. Can't explain it.

I felt the same way - the Les George handle is nice though.. if you want to test drive one.. I’m happy to send one your way.

well...I think I picked up just one knife in 2023, but it's representative of something I've wanted for many years.
made by Tai Goo, one of my all time favourite bladesmiths

Absolutely awesome. I love that piece!

 

[Michaelyogi]

A CPK BFK.
Grail.

But...uh.....eh....this is awkward. Okay.... I'm just going to say it. It's a clip point!

Also.... I'm a dirty liar. I grabbed another WTG. Picked up the V44X today. I'm definitely done now.

SUUUURE you're done.

"My Last Boat VII"

Really? With 4 days left in the year? Hmm....

As long as wtg doesn't drop a predator hunter and Nathan doesn't start selling the HDFK or light medium chopper, I'm safe.

I got it for Harrison

He likes to go on a walk on the compound a couple times a day and he has been attacked by dogs.

He likes it

It was about this point when he started carrying a stick on his walks. I figure, why not go ahead and just do a pole arm. I really need to mount a boot dagger into a hickory staff but this will do in the meantime.

If that doesn't cut the mustard (Zu Praetorian with a custom billet (?) spear extension, from another exchange)
[There's some important stuff under that inner thigh, hope he was ok.]

Yeah someone needs to do these with mounting holes that line up with the CPK handles. Maybe just a bracket for a wood haft idk

Should be a nice accessory to the Shiv 2.0 ?

In other news, my OP was too optimistic for my wallet. Bought a 110 Auto Elite and another AD20s before the year is ending ….

 

[dtmbinb]

I'd buy a CPK neck knife before the 31st. Just sayin.

DLT is dropping WTG V-44X & Dregoth today. A large Smatchet and a large Bowie. Just saying.

 

[Hammer67]

Still PLENTY of time left in 2023, people - let's get those numbers UP!!!

 

[snuffle]

I was thinking that, living where I do, a CPK pike would most likely stay ornamental. But then the QA department where I work is already pretty feral and next year is likely to be a little rough, so I'd probably go for one, just to be on the safe side.

Yeah, I remember reading your posts about it. S####y/aggressive dogs deserve whatever they get for being allowed to attack anyone off their own property

Sooo... after you examine the cheap materials and construction... when's the CPK Polearm pre-order? You know you can make a waaayyyy better option
