Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By conndcj: Gents, Still hanging in. Actually feeling better lately, knock on wood. Going to have a cardio catheterization in the next couple of weeks which is as bad as it sounds. Lol. After that I'll be preparing to go back to work, finally, in December. Anyway, still waiting for a couple of knives to be finished for me. While doing that, I have been working to repair my short term memory which unfortunately was another casualty of my illness. I also have a tough time thinking quickly. I know what I want to say but can't quite get it out for a bit. Very frustrating. So as I have a lot of time to work on these things, they suggested some things to get my thought process going, one of which was building Legos. I LOVE Legos. Always have. Knew their counsel here in CT for a bit. Her husband worked with me and every Christmas he would bring garbage bags of assorted Legos for everyone. Thousands and thousands of pieces. Way cool. I have a bunch of kits of various sizes. I'm almost done with this small Harry Potter kit. Next is a very small police kit then a huge Ferrari 488 Pista race car which will be awesome. I know I'm getting Old Trafford stadium, home of Manchester United for Christmas so I'll be good for awhile. Hopefully these damn knives will show up soon. Hope everyone is well. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/60239/20211031_191126_jpg-2150800.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/60239/20211031_191139_jpg-2150801.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/60239/20211031_191157_jpg-2150802.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/60239/20211031_191437_jpg-2150804.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/60239/20211031_191313_resized_jpg-2150807.JPG Great to see you back in the thread conndjc! The lego set is cool! I cant wait to see your Ferrari 488! Stay patient with the healing. I know it's frustrating, but be patient...You'll get there. |

Outdoor stuff, hunting, rbb2's suggestion below of the Knifeworks Ritter is a solid one. However, you are in Canada. Crazy laws and border BS. Flippers are taboo...is other shit now too? figure it out before ordering anything and expect a wait unless you find it on your side. Don't know about importing but flippers are fine to own.

Correct. It's a Canadian Border Services Agency thing.
_____ Canada Border Services Agency wrote on its website: In accordance with subsection 84(1) of the Criminal Code and the CITT’s recent decision in T. LaPlante, the CBSA resolves that centrifugal knives will be classified as prohibited weapons if the following conditions are met: a. a knife has a blade that opens by centrifugal force, when the blade is released from the handle into the fully ejected and locked position with a simple and brisk outwardly flick of the wrist; and b. it includes knives that require some preliminary or simultaneous minimal manipulation of either a flipper or other non-edged parts of the blade. Knives that can be opened with the flick of your wrist are prohibited. This could include those knives that also use a flipper or other non-edged parts like a thumb stud. If applied broadly, that pretty much covers the vast majority of folding knives — whether it has an assisted-opening mechanism or not. _____________________ And from what I have heard, good luck finding desirable folding knives in the great north. Sounds like a lot of the supply lines have dried up or they face similar shortages due to scarcity like everday goods. Our framing shop just told us the frame we wanted wouldn't be available until April at the earliest. Why? That's crazy. We have a Van Gogh that needs a home. Now we have to settle for a lesser frame aesthetically. May be similar for a new folder. ETA: And just to be clear, it is not impossible to get knives into Canada if you buy from an individual and they are willing to disassemble it prior to shipping, but there is more risk and CBSA seems to apply the regulation somewhat randomly. I don't think most US knife stores are shipping folders to Canada, don't want to bear the risk if it is confiscated. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By colt_thompson: I'll be sure not to post BM again I've got a TRM Atom inbound for my new EDC knife Great glassware though. I had some different Riedels that I picked up in Texas because the AirBnB didn't have proper drinking ware, and I was going to keep them for the story, but all the ones I have at home are like the one in your pic. Which I like. So I returned the ones from Texas to the brand new Target by my house (inaugural trip) and bought some more like we have for my office. I see they tweaked the design ever so slightly on these newer ones though. Still, my preferred drinkware. Have one in hand right now actually. |

I had sold most (all?) of mine shortly before the fiasco as my tastes had moved and their moving target QC and shifting CS had dissuaded me from purchasing any more. If I had any after the Fiasco, it wasn't long. No more. I think I had an auto Bedlam when the shit went down. That was an easy sell. Hurt to do it though. That was a BIG fuck yeah knife. And I don't even like autos. Still, gotta stand for something or you will fall for anything. |

It was a decent price with a bunch of extras (reddit), and I liked the larger stones and the larger overall size for (hopefully) extra stability. I've only used it on one knife so far (the S90V Native Chief I gave to my dad) and it seemed to work well. The same idea as the worksharp, just larger so it goes a bit quicker. |

There was a guy on another forum that was trying to help out by receiving packages for people, driving across the border and mailing them from that side to avoid the CSBA nonsense. |
