It's going to be on a trade for something special. I'll give an update in a week or so with details assuming all goes well. It's hard to part with any of them, but I think this swap will be worth it for both parties.
The astor is a great knife, just take it apart and clean/regrease. The action will be super smooth after. I had a CF one for a bit, I'm low key looking for the G10 variant.Does a Spartan Blades Les George Astor count? If so, I’m about to join the club - just snagged one on the exchange. Let’s see what all this fuss is about.mitchnola this is mostly your fault.
Nice score, it definitely counts. Just know everything you love about it is because of Les and anything you don’t like is because of spartan!Does a Spartan Blades Les George Astor count? If so, I’m about to join the club - just snagged one on the exchange. Let’s see what all this fuss is about.
Glad to hear you like it! A vecp is next!!Well, it’s here - two days early! Nice knife. Very smooth and light action, can easily thumb-flip it open with a little wrist flick. A little chunkier than I like to carry, but I’m sure it will see some pocket time. Like maybe tomorrow.

First of all welcome to the gang buddy.Hello, my name scorpnsnake and I am a King Georgeaholic. I only have one Servo for now, but you can bet that won't hold up, more to come.
This thing is incredible. It has raised the bar for me. Even with some noteworthy competitors abound.
Action unrivaled. Lock so smooth, it begs to be unlocked. Ergos made for my hands. I love everything about this little knife.
She came to me full PJ. I had her dressed up a little with a WOK Breezy cut, full polish on handles and hardware. Turned out just right for me.
Hope to spend some time here, learn from you all, and proceed with adding more to my little collection.
Without further ado!!

I see you left out the bit about how the flipper felt
You'd be surprised!Hahaha! That's for the locker room man. These gents don't want to hear about a flipper tab that feels like a Goddesses nipple.
Haha! Oh we definitely do! Who doesn’t like goddesses nipples!!! Damn, now I feel like that’s a nub I need to rub?!Hahaha! That's for the locker room man. These gents don't want to hear about a flipper tab that feels like a Goddesses nipple.
Sorry boss, I figured that one might get ya attention but I couldn’t help myself. I miss ya around here!
Apologies for exuberant utterances Sir, we were just overly enthusiastically welcoming a new Les head into the fold! We'll keep it civil!
