Haven't been here for about 3 years. Just wondering if there is anyone still around from the old regime that was a member from way back when. Would like to re-connect with them as well of those that are new. Need to get back into the game. Haven't EDC'd in a long time. Of course I'm moving again so most of my stuff is packed right now but next month it's on. I have to restock. Just saying Hi for now!!
Welcome back FACE. You haven't EDC'd in a while? Aww, that can't be true. You must have something in your pockets other than your hands and pocket lint, right? There's a few EDCF vets around, but most of the old old guard have migrated to other forums or just disappeared. There's a few on forum, but even some of the folks that landed there have disappeared from there also.
I've been around for a little bit, wander back in from time to time. Ran out of $$$ a couple of years ago....
Don't think I'm that old in forum years. Lurked for a few years before I bothered signing up to be able to answer? I do remember talking to JSB in conversations. In human years well, it's been a while now, nearly retirement age. Still EDC but don't spend very much on new gear lately. For one thing I'm a mechanic at work now, they buy a lot of my EDC for me. Just that it's not legal to carry it home with me. For another, I bought a house. Look at the state I live in for some idea of the shock to my wallet. No money for much else. EDIT: Still EDC my custom Skinth, Peter Atwood finally released (and sold me) my "hey how'd you take that pulley off so fast??" tool I use at work, and always carry a Spyderco.
I just bought a house as well. Moving in at the end of the month so I hear you when you say there isn't much funds left after all that is paid for. I still have a couple of Skinth's and I do wear one from time to time but the Letherman that is housed in it is quit weighty in there and hard not to notice on the belt. Still have the orange folding knife that I got from Antithetik and a few other gems I managed to hold on to. As some of you can remember, I used to run the Canada passaround box and the last round left me with little to no verifiable content. People were skimping on the contents and it left me with frustration and resentment. However I don't know what the Canadian contingent is here anymore and I wouldn't mind starting it up again however I'll need sometime to get something together. I'll post some pics of what I have left in a few weeks after I move cause right now, it's all packed up. Nothing much being hawked or sold in the buy/sell/trade lately.
And buying knives and McGizmo clips from JSBurly. The marketplace was a thing of beauty. Sent from my LG-V520 using Tapatalk
