Re: C Jul Herbertz switchblade

Luke you are so lucky in the US .

When I cross the river here I debate between a larger pencil sharpener or a heavier bunch of keys for protection :)
My country is so fxxkd up that it has disarmed us all so we can't do a thing about the shit that they constantly pile upon us .

Re: I just bought a Benchmade Claymore OTF.

Just been reading a bit about them Scott .
Benchmade have always made good knIves.

I only have what I class as showy otf knives ,would have loved something a bit sturdier in build and blade quality like yours .

Glad you snagged it mate .,a good buy seen them as high as $400 .

Re: German unusual

Unfortunately not Luke .

It sold for more than I could afford or risk but I really liked it ,different than the norm ,just wanted to know if its a specific german type as I have never come across one in my searches or hunting before .

I have never seen one before and was drawn by the cool pushbutton it has .It looks like an Anton wingen 50s Shellpuller clippoint with those bolsters but looks like it's rocker activated. The scales look correct aswell but remind of b...
