I bought that very knive for a former boss of mine. Got it in wood with his name engraved on it. Definitely a nice little knife. I have a couple of SOGs and like them both.

Walbridge oh
How'd that light end up? Still using it. Talk to me WADE!
Yeah Dave it's still going strong. Use it almost everyday at work. Came in handy yesterday morning changing out a grinder pump at 6:30 lol. Still has the same battery and holds a charge.

I had to go back and see when I posted that since I don't carry those knives anymore lol. Now it's either a emerson cqc 8 the cold steel recon 1 or the orange benchmade that I posted before. The name of the place I got the light from is Flashlight Distributor.

I think I made it 8 pages earlier. Pretty neat to see how often most of us have changed things up. Lol

Still carrying my dads knife. Here is a picture of everything that I carry daily in my left pocket.
The knife, a dog tag with Connor’s picture on it, a marble from his memorial service, and a dollar coin I received as change from Wendy’s the day after his accident. I really need to get a different pocket knife so I can put this one away.

I have a benchmade mini griptillian and I'll switch it up for a griptillian with a D2 blade from time to time. I also have a flashlight and a spare magazine along with my wallet, keys and phone. That's my daily carry.

Got any pictures of the knife?

When I'm not carrying a beater Gerber at work, I carry this Benchmade Bugout. I really, really like this knife. It's a very capable size for lots of uses, but it's super-lightweight and super-slim, making it a lot more comfortable to carry around than any other pocket knife I own. I've been tempted to get a second one, just because.

Viper-Tec OTF is my everyday carry now. Great company, I think they are veteran owned?

My wife is a knife nut, and she has been to a 2 or 3 day defensive knife fighting class down at one of the state parks that was held by ex military guys. They actually used a deer carcass to teach them proper techniques. She carries a Viper-Tec Ghost now.

Ohio’s Changing Knife Laws - FEBRUARY 01, 2021​


"Ohio’s governor signed Senate Bill 140 into law last [month]. This bill positively reforms Ohio’s knife laws and essentially decriminalizes the regular carry of any type of knife, so long as the carrier does not use the knife as a weapon. The law goes into effect on April 10 of this year."

It would, but that’ll never be allowed.... Those days are way back in the rear view mirror
But under what law? I know a couple of kids that check traps before or after school. I also know that at least one of my kids would carry one because they do whenever they aren't at school. It's a tool, not a weapon.
