Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Justabulletaway: I just like that nice sized It will make a great steak knife.  Are the studs tritium or regular GITD? No idea, I would guess regular. Specs: SPECIFICATIONS: Materials: Böhler M390 6AL-4V Titanium Ceramic Bronze Approx. Dimensions: OAL: 8.125" Blade Length: 3.50" Construction Type: Integral Bolster Lock Approx. Weight: 4.4oz / 12.5g Features: Handle Machined from a Solid Block of 6AL-4V Titanium Premium Böhler M390 Stainless Steel Blade SS Lock Bar Stabilizer Insert Dual Thumbstuds with Dive Watch Grade GITD Inlays Satin SS Hardware Matched G10 Handle Scales Titanium Pivot Collar, Bronze Races, and Ceramic Bearings Ceramic Ball Detent Fine Jimping on Blade and Handle "Backstrap" Lanyard Pocket for Type 1 ALSE Cordage Low-Ride Titanium Billet Pocket Clip Fine Matte Bead Peened Industrial Finish US Design Patent: US D752,411 S Marks: Laser Etched PDW Logo on Pocket Clip Description: This is a precision made, EDC folder at its finest. We used titanium billet in the handle, pivot collar, and the pocket clip. The Böhler M390 stainless steel alloy blade runs on ceramic bearings for a smooth action. Dual thumbstuds with dive watch grade glow-in-the-dark inlays deploys the blade quickly and decisively. Rounding out this Invictus-IBL are the G10 scales which are perfectly matched to the handle. No flashy, big logos or graphics or marks, just a subtle logo laser etched on to the pocket clip. For those who adhere to the philosophy of form follows function, find beauty in finely made, useful tools, and demand precision made mechanical objects, the Invictus-IBL is made for you. Due to the complex, lengthy production process, the extra hand finishing work and associated costs required in the making of this particular variation of the Invictus folder, it is unlikely we will run this version again. This was a labor of love, perseverance and patience over 6 years to see this through to its final, satisfying conclusion. We hope those of you who choose to own this folder will appreciate the time and effort in its creation, and confidently enjoy the results. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WICOUNSEL: Yes, Prometheus. It is Terzuolaesque in a way, but I like this much better than the Terzuola designed Drop I checked out. I was looking at the Clap when I was researching MKM few days ago. I was kinda diggin it, until I saw the OAL. If it isn't at least 8", it is going to have a hard time finding a place in my rotation. There are some exceptions, but generally, I just can't seem to warm up to anything shorter. It does have a Terzuola vibe. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By sywagon: I want to learn how to make that. Biscuits sound like a PITA. Looks delicious~! Biscuits are super easy. 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 0-1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 6 tablespoons very cold butter. Mix dry ingredients, cut in butter, add 3/4 cup milk or buttermilk, mix just until combined, dump on counter, scoop it all together and flatten into a rough rectangle by hand. Fold in half, flatten fold, flatten, about six times. Cut rounds, bake at 425 until golden brown. |

I keep pounds and pounds in mine because I stock up when it goes on a good sale. Very convenient for biscuits. I've done the grater and food processor with frozen, and the pastry cutter with cold but not frozen. The only one I didn't like was the food processor one. Came out tough. |

I've never gotten into baking at all so I'm going to have to give it a go. That's a cool looking knife, I like the milling on the scale and the blade shape is classic. I've seen a few recipes that leave out the folding, just flatten out once and cut. I may try that next time just to see, but I suspect that won't get the layered effect as much. |

Understand, I am not braggin, just sayin, we make a lot of summer sausage. Not all of it good. But just due to volume, chances are good it is from Wisconsin. Glad you found a good one. |

LOL, no, now the Para 3 is clipped at the ends.
I "helped" you decide on a Para 3? That doesn't sound like me...I love blurple though. I do like this shot because it shows the size of the TRE. sywagon's shots of it are usually stand alone so no point of reference. Much appreciated. ETA: I swear it said Para 3, looks like it says Para 2 on review. If that is a Para 2, TRE longer than I was envisioning. Makes more sense I would recommend a Para 2 over a 3 though. |
