My daughter saw it and wanted it for Christmas. She loves that show.
Not happening though. She got a Dragonfly instead.

since imt at work today im pretty much going to refresh the cove every few minutes. ive spent so much goddamned time looking for a MT ultratech or UTX85 with a plain single edge. they dont seem to exist. supposedly MT is currently working or will be working on a batch of ultratechs and UTX70s, i have no way of figuring out how long till they hit the market or where they might hit. its frustrating to decide you want something, then not be able to find it
aw shit. after many many hours of searching, emailing several dealers, microtech, making a couple of calls, i think i might be landing one of these. The transaction is making me slightly nervous, but i think i should be safe if something goes south. I am going to be buying it from the guy who owns this site cuttingedgeknifecompany.com/
through email he said he would call microtech and try to get me some info. This morning he said emailed me saying he is getting a few tanto ultratechs from microtech in the next few days, and do i want one cause they will go quick. I got his number from his website and called him, he didnt answer with a company name, just "hello" i talked to him for a few minutes, his price was solid and i told him i would supply my info and put my name on one. He said he wouldnt charge me until its actually shipping.........i gave him my credit card info. thats what makes me nervous, but i have his full name and address, phone number, and its my paypal mastercard so if something goes wrong i should be able to fix it.
anywways, 3.44 inch blade, satin s35vn, aluminum handle, 3.6 ounces. fucking sexy. i hope the transaction goes through.
I like the look of the handle shape, and the beefy spring and liners but... At 3.5" it's too long for UK carry. On the plus side, if I took 1/2" off the blade it would make for a quite nice wharncliffe / sheepsfoot which are my favourite blades.
Yeah its a UKPK. I almost fell asleep writing that. I dunno, they are nice and all but they are a bit... Vanilla. And I don't know if I'm hipster enough to own a UKPK. If I carried it next to my iphone would I morph into some latte swilling, sandal wearing, messenger bag toting bum.
Ok, I'm everything but the sandals already but that would be too much.

I'm officially in communication with Alan Davis (thanks for the email address willy, fuck you)
hes taking orders. 9 to 12 months for full custom folder. maybe only a few months if i chose something hes already working on and just ask for modifications. I've outlined my thoughts and im waiting for his input, and to see whatever he works on to list "for sale" to see if want to work off of one of those designs.....
i hope i go through with something through him. id love to get my hands on my very first peace of custom work.
