8th May meet ... "Tools"

[zagabul]

What are you going to bring to the meet in may? :D

Shall we start a "list" of items attendee would like to see if possible?

I will probably bring the usual suspects - Sebenza, Strider, a few Spyderco's, the odd Benchmade
If of any interest, I can bring any possible Victorinox Alox knife you can think of :O (see signature)

I would love to have a look at an HEST Folder and an Hinderer XM18 (any configuartion) ;):D

[TallNHairyDave]

I was planning on bringing my burgeoning collection of "Danzorine" items... but that's dependant on some of them arriving / being ready before the meetup. I have my fingers crossed :)


Orange UKPK
Orange "Ugly Duck" friction folder by Ivan Campos
Orange "HigoNoCampos" friction folder by Ivan Campos
Orange Guycep "Eclipse"
Zackerty "Serrata Anorexia" (blade en-route from NZ, then needs to be handled and sheathed in ORANGE. Hopefully will arrive in time for me to get it off to the chap who's doing that for me and for him to get it completed and back!)
Orange modded Enlan EL01 (by Wolf67 - mod in progress)
Orange modded Fox Deimos (by Wolf67 - mod commissioned, but he's having problems getting a pair of raw scales big enough at time of writing! :lol:)
Orange Alox SAK "Classic" (rather battered from keyring carry, but still has some orange!)
Orange Exoctac Firesteel
Orange Lamy Safari fountain pen (with orange ink and why not? :lol:)


Might bring one or two others as well... such as the rather fab Moors Cleaver by MTG, and my Farid CPM-10V competition cutter for those who've not yet seen it.

Looking at Dave's post above.


I'll be bringing a pair of cat 4 sunnies...:D. And maybe a few sharps too.

[zagabul]

I'll be bringing an Hinderer and HEST Folder afterall :D Thanks BB!

[TallNHairyDave]

lathedog - Cheek! Mind you, if I do have all the orange out, and it's sunny, we might ALL need eye protection :lol:

Zagabul - Oooh. Been shopping in the classifieds mate? :D

[ShortNCuddlyAm]

So the tall-n-hairy one has been badgering me to post what I'll be taking.
It'll be some knives, including:
Some edcable folders
Possibly some non-edcable folders
Some fixed blades of which some will be custom and some may not be.
I may also bring some pens, some shiny wife/girlfriend distractors and a prototype knife case or two.

:D

[Chui]

..........maybe a new Laguiole :rolleye11







(well done, Zagabul......admirable enthusiasm ;))

[TallNHairyDave]

Typical... I manage to get her to join in this thread, and she posts a cryptic post... *sigh* :lol:

For those who are unaware, the Mrs makes jewellery using handmade glass beads, swarovski crystals and other good things (like sterling silver wire, pearls and stuff). I christened the term "wife / girlfriend distractors" when she sold some handmade bracelets here a while back (to good feedback on them), but she keeps forgetting to put more up for sale.

SHE HAS SAID SHE'LL BE DONATING SOMETHING GIRLY TO THE RAFFLE.... so if you've been naughty and bought too many knives recently, and need something to placate SWMBO, nows your chance :lol:

And they are fantastic. My wife loves the bracelet I purchased last year, really well made with lots of girl type style.

No orange subcom yet Dave? [runs and ducks from daves flying keyboard!]

[TallNHairyDave]

Thanks mate.

Decided to get my fox Deimos orangified instead of the subcom :lol:

[zagabul]

I'll bring a few Orange Victorinox along...
What's up with the orange theme? :huh:

[TallNHairyDave]

There's nothing wrong with a bit of orange! Some people are just "unenlightened" as to the joys of orangey goodness :lol:

I got my first orange handled knife (an Orange UKPK) ages ago because I got fed up with putting my knife down in the tent / by the fire / wherever and knocking it off into some leaves/long grass then having to hunt for it.

And I kind of got hooked on stuff in orange. The rest is history :)

[zagabul]

I'll bring all my orange goodies for your viewing pleasure. :)

[Supa]

I'll just bring my entire meagre collection and hope there's something in there you guy's havn't seen befor. Might bring a billhook I made, but thats if I have the bottle to carry a foot long billhook in a bag on the train.
