It is really good looking.


Impressions?
Not as nice as the f95, but I'll be more likely to carry this one to work. I prefer the thinness of the 95 over the 3, but I have XL hands so the extra girth isn't a big deal. This is my only experience with a liner lock Shiro, and it locks up very early, but it is damn solid. Really authoritative snap when you flip it open. It does feel like the bearings could use a drop of lube, it's smooth, but there's a little slow spot when closing.

Fit and finish is top notch, but that probably goes without saying.

Yeah, I don't think of Biglots for food ever, but my mom turned us on to these. We'd have it on bagels with them Christmas morning, and get one under the tree. It wasn't enough so we went looking and they never had it on the shelf here - turns out if you call them they will get as many as you want in and hold them for you

Ah. I should have humoed the first time. I don't have a Shiro here on island. I assume Recon 1 or other, off to order.

I still need to decide on the Sharpie and those fixed blades.  The lady likes the skinner, I like the Nomad.
