ECCKS March 1-3
Just a heads up...the East Coast Custom Knife Show (ECCKS) will be at the Westin Hotel in Jersey City from March 1-3. Great show, and great opportunity to see knives that you would not normally get to see up close and fondle. My better half and I will be there both Friday and Saturday.

Recommend a Great Folding Knife
OK just added this one recently. The blade is from a "Customize a Griptilian" mini Griptilian that I ordered from Benchmade. Blade is a tanto point in S30V, and I had the Gadsden symbol laser etched into the blade at the factory. The opposite side of the blade has my name engraved in script. The knife originally came with tan scales, but is now sporting a set of Kevin Wilkins titanium scales. My small CRK Sebenza Tanto is back in it's box at the moment. But I eventually rotate all my folding knives around for some carry time. Two are dedicated right hand carry, a Strider SNG DGG, and an Emerson CQC7V...I am a lefty after all.

Who wants to live in WV?
We have a beautiful place in Nicholas County that we will be moving to as soon as we can get the NJ house on the market and sold. Beautiful state, folks are real nice, and take their gun rights seriously. And one other thing...our property taxes for a new solid wood (modern log cabin) 3 bedroom, 2 bath, with a detached 2 car garage on a beautiful 2 acres out in the woods, is right around $800 per year. Almost heaven for sure!

My "Getting out of NJ" countdown!
We have already bought our vacation/retirement home in WV, and hope to make the permanent move in a year or so. It's a 7 hour drive from the kids and grandkids, but light years closer to freedom and sanity.

Thanks for the reminder.

Letting NJGF pick my new Glock!
Gotta agree with the G20...it was the last one I bought also. But to be honest, it would help to know which ones you already have, and what you intend to use it for.

We have 3. A Raptor II, Pro Raptor II, and and Ultra Raptor II...all have been flawless. YMMV

Yeah, if I'm in jeans it disappears, and it's lighter than my 3.5" or 4" XM-18's.

How do you sharpen your knives?
Plus one for the Wicked Edge. Had the Lansky (gave it to my son), the Edge Pro Apex (sold it), but this Wicked Edge is just really well thought out and a snap to use and get consistent edges. I keep a Spyderco set at our place in WV, but I honestly like the Wicked Edge so much I may have to buy another to keep down there too.

Workdays it's my CRK small Sebenza, days off a Hinderer XM-18, or my recently delivered Zero Tolerance 560 or 561. Generally have a small SAK in the other pocket in any case.

busse sheath
I've had sheaths from Buy Brown, AZwelke, and Chuddy Bear done for my Busse's. Chuddy's leather for my Boss Jack LE is absolutely first rate, the other two made kydex sheaths for other Busse's, and fit and finish were great!
