EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Didn’t realize they still made
Teflon coated black Talons. I still have a few boxes of 40 cal laying around from the 80’s 😳
I know they pulled them off the shelf years ago except for law enforcement because they had a reputation for penetrating kevlar vests .

They don't but these came in on a trade. The newer Winchester Ranger series are all based on them and are better actually, but nothing beats a Black Talon for coolness.
 
My Coon friend came to get a quick bite at the cat food bowl. He's getting pretty dang comfortable around us. I was kneeling about 5 feet away from him here. Got the PJ damascus Seb outside today!

Unlike many, I've never had very strong feelings one way or the other about Ultem. However when I was back home in FL this year I came across a strand of Baltic Butterscotch Amber that belonged to my mother, and couldn't help but notice the similarity in color, which got me thinking. I mulled over this Mini-Freek for a few weeks, then happened to catch one on the exchange for I price I couldn't resist.

This lanyard was just this morning's proof of concept project, as I definitely plan on re-doing it. I used "nano-cord" sheathed in paracord so I didn't have to drill the beads out. Seems to work OK, as I don't intend this to be a particularly heavy-use knife.

I really wish Benchmade would've went bolder with the purple on the blade if they were gonna do it. I also don't think the black hardware really jives with the overall look, which I plan to remedy. When I have it apart, I'm strongly considering removing the coating from the liners as well, to see if I can get them to show through and take advantage of the transparency of the material. Resale value be damned ;)

Hang into those 40 cals unless you no longer have a 40 cal pistol, if that is the case, drop me a line and see if we can reach a mutually agreeable deal. I believe I can have quality bourbon brought to your front door AND chewy will deliver the kitty something as well.
