Sorry, I have been away from this forum for sometime. My office computer didn’t allow me to go on any website related to Weapons. Finally, retired from a public servant job and collecting a pension. Back to the thread question, carrying my new Chaves Redencion clone. Can’t post photos because Photobucket is charging for their service. What are you guys using to post photos for free? Welcome back, good to hear you are collecting your well deserved pension! After the debacle with Photobucket I have moved everything to Imgur, works well for me!

For me it's working the best to use blogspot.com You can create a blog or just use it as an upload dump Photophucket is working again but with a big banner, not my favourite. I only use it to like to pictures that I don't have on my blog yet. adahnsplace.blogspot.com/

My custom Marzitelli and modified CRKT Marzitelli Prowler. Sorry, Lobster can you please tell me how to post pics from Imgur? You can simply use the Add Attachment button in the Create Post window, otherwise you copy the BBCode link from Imgur and use the Insert Image button.

The top one is a modified CRKT Marzitelli Prowler, I used the Demel tool to widen the choil for the finger, the sides of the blade was sanded with 600 grit and the top of the spine was tapered to look like the 2 bottom custom Marzitelli Big Snarly (middle one is one of a kind dino skin pattern and bottom one is bone, both have CF bolster)

Some anodized orange peel surface on a budget Fura Kwaiken knife
original:
I especially love the added grip, no more slippery Ti handles for me

WOW!! This looks amazing! How do you like the knife itself? I like the quality, esp. for the price I paid, around $46 on the bay. For edc it's a bit too big and the blade is not versatile enough but I love cutting herbs with it. I call it my travel kitchen knife even though we don't do so much travelling atm
For edc I really like my SRM 811, even though I wish there was one with M390 or so. The Ti variant with VG10 is a bit expensive.
