Found outside my door!

Post by FivePointOh »

I slept in till 10 AM this morn and groggily opend the front door to get the morning paper and saw a white plastic envelope laying next to it. I immediately knew what it was and my adrenaline level started to rise. My hands trembled as I opened the bag and the box inside using a CRKT S-2. Yes, yes, it was my new Dobruski CB82 sent to me by Duane from EDC Knives!

This is one beautifuly crafted bali! I can't keep my hands off it.

Time to go play again, ciao.

Thanks Razor, he has a Scimitar coming in with red handles, but I would say it's already sold. :(

Benny, you could always order one from Dobruski via http://www.taymo.com/en/ made to order! The only thing is a 70 week wait!!!!

Here's another style from the Taymo site.

MrBigg, it will serve a dual purpose. I have been flipping it a lot but haven't tried any aerials yet. I'm afraid to drop it or get blood on it. It hasn't made it under glass yet, just sitting on top within easy grasp! It's a sweet flipper. Very smooth and well balanced. I am so happy with it, I could just shit!

I can see why... thought the idea of catching that long sweeping blade on the wrong end scares the hell outta me... how heavy is it? Looks quite substantial.
