You can also look at the Kershaw Leek, assisted and made in the USA for around 40 or the Blur also US made for around 50.

People do love those Cryos, excellent recommendation!

It is an affordable version of a great design.
If you are set on assisted and are okay with chinese steel this is a sure winner!

For about $15.00 over budget you could get a Kershaw knockout, USA knife!

All good recommendations, have to admit, I was tempted to add a Cryo to my cart this weekend when placing an order to qualify for free shipping. Opted for a flashlight instead.

Another look at my scale, still love this knife. Why can't I ever remember to clean the blade before taking a picture?:

Hoping to get my MM custom friction folder soon.
I have been dying to get this thing!

MurphysLaw · 03-25-2013, 12:02 PM

Looks awesome Shane, I have some neon green paracord inbound, if you want a lanyard to match, shoot me a PM, I'd be glad to hook you up.

It is a Maxmadco SS bolt action pen, super solid & heavy. It uses Pilot gel refills, I love that pen.

Carrying my unagressive folder today. Kershaw Skyline

MurphysLaw · 03-29-2013, 04:10 PM

Forums are bad for my bank account...I blame Shane for this

Blak Smyth · 04-01-2013, 05:17 AM

So some of you may have seen my Silent Soldier Flipper for sale. I notated a disclaimer that it had some minor blade rock. I sent Jason Brouse an e-mail stating such. He said "Send it to me, I can fix it". I shipped it out and it came back perfect and solid at no charge. He also included a few stickers and a cool sheep skinned lined pouch.
You can judge customer service on how they respond to a problem, and gotta say Jason is awesome!!!

My Brous Blades:

BHalbrooks · 04-01-2013, 08:07 AM

Sexy

issues · 04-01-2013, 08:11 AM

Brous does some great work, congrats Shane!!!

Blak Smyth · 04-04-2013, 08:26 AM

Just ordered a beat up Strider SNG to EDC.

Teaser of my new beater knife on the way:

BHalbrooks · 04-04-2013, 02:49 PM

The Brous looks different in that picture, Shane. Like the handle seems more rounded where you'd put your fingers. Oh well, still sexy.

Can't place the second picture. Almost want to say a CRK?

MurphysLaw · 04-05-2013, 11:12 AM

Congrats on the Strider Shane! If I could find a PT at a good price I'd probably find a way to sneak it in the house.

Remo · 04-05-2013, 11:55 AM

Still rockin my Kershaw One Ton. I like it!!

Do any of you knife guys know a lot about the micro tech OTF ultra tech knife? I was handed down one from my Grandfather it's says 09/2001 and a serial number. Can't really find a good info on the older models
Thanks.

MurphysLaw · 04-05-2013, 06:48 PM

The older microtechs are great knives, I'm kinda glad the one I was thinking about selling didn't get bought. Check out microholics.org, they might have the info your looking for. Congrats and enjoy the hand me down, the only knife I got from my grandad is an old craftsman folder.

Lear31MX · 04-05-2013, 07:00 PM

Thanks Brian
