Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By konger: How hard is it? I think you have to take the knife apart. I seen a number of warnings about disassembly on the pm2 on these scale ads. It didn’t inspire confidence. This is why I stick to fixed blades guys lol. Not hard at all. The lanyard tube can be a pain but other than that it's no big deal. Even that isn't a big deal, just takes some careful prying. |

It didn’t inspire confidence. This is why I stick to fixed blades guys lol. Difficulty? Not hard at all. You will need torx micro bits. T10 for the pivot, T8 for the spacers, and T6 for the clip. It’s best to have two t10 and t8 drivers if one side is overly tight in case something spins… The only thing you might have trouble with is freeing the lanyard barrel from the liners/scales. But that’s simply a tedious and careful process so you don’t break anything. Putting everything back together requires some forethought to ensure the blade is centered and the action is perfect. As long as your IQ is above GD average you should be fine. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WIC: The purple works for me here also, only brand to get for micarta scales is RGT. because Wisconsin. I didn’t know those were still available. I’d buy one but for the coated blade… That’s probably a good option for konger if he is ok with purple. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By JaredGrey: Rittenhouse Rye is, IMO, one of the two pillars of rail rye, the other being Old Overholt. When I evaluate it, that’s what I’m gauging it against. It’s fairly unique in that it mixes fairly well with EITHER Coke or Pepsi. Not particularly good on its own though. I give the edge to the most recent releases of Old Overholt. Higher proof, non chill filtered, slightly tastier neat, but only mixes well with Pepsi. Wait, Wut. |

RGT does have a slight flex but you'll only notice it if you try to. There just isn't much thickness to the liners. Luckily I didn't watch any discouraging videos and it went pretty smoothly

Wrong. Probably some on it and the table that you can't see though.

 Bought a ten pound box of oranges - need to decide what new recipe to try with them. I'm leaning toward an orange tart, but the orange syrup cake looks mighty tasty. Obviously planning to do a bunch of candied orange peel as well. |

I had added them in the first place because the screws which hold each scale together at the back, only go through one side and can’t help hold one of the scales on. I could reverse the side the pocket clip is on and use its screws to hold the scale, but now the pocket clip is mandatory and not reversible

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By rbb2: So much for "WISCONSIN!!!!!" silly, silly Iowa man. The reason I can't get it in Wisconsin is the most WISCONSIN!!!! reason ever. It is a BT product and subject to allocation. We get the same as other states. However, the distributors sell it ALL to the bars before the licker stores even have a chance to pass it on to individuals because the Wisconsinites consume such mass quantities at the bars since we are such a friendly social bunch. Fortunately for me, our neighbors to the south are anti social alanons so I can walk into a licker store and typically find a bottle of it. Bless them. Just doing my part bringing more into the state than we are allocated.  |
