For those in the US, today is National Knife Day! Happy slicing to all! To celebrate I’m carrying the first Benchmade I ever bought, the Mini Griptilian from the first year they offered it in S30V.

    Kershaw Shallot, super comfortable even with the bigger size. It is nice and flat. Sadly discontinued, hopefully it will stick around long enough to be a good present to my son when he is older.

      Kershaw Shallot

      I have the other 3 “Onions” but I never grabbed the Shallot and I kick myself for it.

      I was on the fence for a long time, because (at the time) I had never purchased a knife that expensive before. Finally I got ready to buy a 154CM one from a local shop and then Benchmade released the S30V version. The shop was going to offer it, at the time, for only $5 more so I waited just a bit longer. :) Been a regular carry ever since.

      I will profess my ignorance, I had not heard of Jerry Rigs Everything before. I like a good folding utility knife. These look great!

        Standard replaceable razer blade in a well built handle for dirt cheap. Plus his phone teardown videos are great.
