Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By mygreenkaw: @WIC thank you this is a great news, I went down this rabbit hole a few years back. Very few options at that time for USB-C. I use a Samsung tablet for my personal stuff (runs windows), I'll be ordering one and giving it a try. Hilarious, system tells me I have a mention, then sends me back five pages to where there is no mention stop using the mention feature. It's worthless. I'll see you, I don't go anywhere else on this site. |

I guess I never posted my CRK Sebenza 31. My bad. Bog oak inlays with a Magnacut blade. Beautifully made and finished. Their packaging embarrasses knives costing 3 or 4 times this one. I'm going to take the sheath to Florence someday and have a jacket made of its leather.
    And just because I know some of you like watches, my brother treated himself to this Breitling. Ages ago, Breitling, being a pilot's watch, made a series of watches representing the various military acrobatic teams around the world. USA, Japan, France, Great Britain and Italy. They were only sold in their respective countries. The USA was represented by the Blue Angels, which is the one I have. My brother always wanted the Italian one and went he was in Milan last week or so, he went into a Breitling boutique to browse. He mentioned to the lady there about the watch and she said they actually had a brand new one in their safe that never sold from over 20 years ago. Once he put it on, he never took it off. Cool watch and nice score.
