Well then I will be watching for your pictures. :mrgreen:

Yes I like the 10mm very much. Its an expensive round but worth it in my opinion. It wouldn't be as special outside of an auto frame but 16 rounds of 10MM and several more 15 round magazines is quite a bit of firepower.

Guys who reload usually like these the best. But there are company's like Buffalo Bore, Hornady and others that make a powerful load that really show what the 10mm can do. If you buy the low powered cheap target rounds you aren't reaching this rounds potential.

Jerry, I'm not sure I could handle a knife that has directions on it that show you how to open it. Looks pretty hi-tech to me. ___Dave

Dave, it's not a very handy knife. There are all kinds of edges and angles in the hand, plus opening and closing it is not handy at all. It's not something I would carry.

I see one bad thing about posting from an Android phone...
No way to edit the pics after you take them; just snap & post. ::td::

The phone is so small I can't tell if the pic is in focus or not. ::disgust::

Ahah! It's a Blur. How do you and the Tanto blades get along?

I like them if they are ground properly and can get really sharp, like this one.
The point on it is really fine for fine detail cutting and the elbow in the cutting edge works well for precision cutting that requires a bit more force.
I didn't think I would like them and steered clear of them for years but once I tried a good one I was hooked.
I still like my traditional knives, but I almost always have one "tactical" knife on me in additional to traditional patterns.


There are a couple improvements I would suggest to Kershaw on the Blur:
1- Make it a true flipper and not an A/O.
2- A chisel grind on the blade would make it even sharper!


BTW, does anyone here have any observations about the BDZ-1 steel? This is the first time I have used this steel.
It is hard to judge it from a couple days use, but so far I am impressed.

Ditto. Just found your Al Mars today. Not only do the Al Mars perform well but are about the most comsistently handsome production knives I know of.
