Yes, I know there is a sub for knives but I see cool shit posted here in GD by people who aren't in the sub then forget what the title of the thread was and then get bored trying to search through every random knife related thread in GD.
This is what I usually carry for long bike rides: 
 A waved Spyderco Delica and a Kwaiken by Dynamik Blades aka Smithy

I'm not sure I catch the hat reference. I could be drawn to the place because I share certain traits with the locals  .

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By sywagon: Honestly can't say I have a preference for BT over WT 101 or even OGD BIB, and would probably rate either of the latter just on higher proof. BT was never intended to rate as an expensive bourbon - good quality for the original price for sure, but nothing more. Fucking hipsters hyping things. I'll say the same a bout Weller. The 107 was a steal at $23 for sure, and a go to - it was never and still isn't a $60 bottle. I don't mind OGD BiB, but don't think it stands on it's own well. It is better as a mixer. WT 101 is solid. I do not recall how well it stands in it's own, but for the price point, it is an easy pick up. Even if they kicked me out when I went to the distillery. Fuck Weller. |
