I just have a hard time accepting quality style european meats coming from Salt Lake City. The chorizo was made in Spain the rest in Deseret. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 80085: Just noticed the meat tube to the right. I'm not certain that I would willingly eat commercial meat product made from javalina. The meat is coming from pig hunts and from experience I wouldn't eat that unless I knew the control of the meat through the supply chain. Maybe I'm overly concerned, maybe not. I doubt it's javelina. When I was a kid a neighbor shot one and he said what didn't have worms tasted like shit. While I can't confirm that, I've never really had the desire to eat one |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Star_Scream: On the left are sourdough crackers the wife made. Then little cornichons, and half sour pickles. There's a jar with pickled cocktail onions and deli, Dijon and German mustard. The cheeses are a stilton, some uppity gouda, triple cream brie and iberico. I'm a big fan of iberico, sheep, cow and goat milk cheese blended really well. The whiskey salami didn't really have much whiskey flavor, the wild boar salami had a little extra porkiness, and the truffle salami had a little earthiness we didn't find until half way in. The chorizo was smoky and tasty. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Star_Scream: Originally Posted By williedikker72: Damn. That looks good. We love doing meat and cheese trays.

are the bronze grade spartan folders g2g? I'm a knife new and looking to buy something to edc a d don't want to spend too much. I was originally looking at a RAT 2, but since I learned about the Spartans, I'm leaning that way more. any thoughts on how the rat 2 and Talos/Astor compare?

All solid Designs. Distinct though. Does one speak to you more.
The CTS-XHP should have better edge retention which is typically a priority for me in folders, but it should still have decent toughness and be ok to sharpen. AUS8 is probably leaning towards higher toughness, less edge retention, but one of my favorite knives is in AUS8 and I use it regularly for opening packaging and have never sharpened it. It might even be AUS10. Personally, for a good all around working knife, I like 8” plus. Small knives have their place too, but a little more blade goes a long way for general use if you are just getting one. |

It might even be AUS10 to be honest, i like the Talos because I like the Halsey design, but it seems like it might be a tad small. I found the Astor on knife center for the same price as the Talos but I don't like the shape as much. it's nice that they both use the same steel |

They're a legit dealer, no need to worry about ordering from them. If you're worried about the Talos being too small then Astor is the way to go. It took me a while to warm up to the Les George blade shape, but it is very effective. It makes for a nicely slicey knife.  https://www.chicagoknifeworks.com/spartan-blades-astor-green-g10/  https://www.chicagoknifeworks.com/spartan-blades-astor-carbon-fiber-black-g10/ |
