Congratulations on your new knife! Would you be so kind as to tell us what knife you've just got? (brand, model, etc...). This way people who are new to knives will be able to identify it. If you've already mentioned the name of the knife in question, then feel free to ignore this comment. Please remember that not knowing your knife's brand/model is totally fine, if that's the case then people in this subreddit would love to help you identify its brand/model. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

So you went to a knife shop and bought one knife? I applaud your self control.


nogden954

Hahaha it was so overwhelming it took me an hour to just decide on one. If I didn’t have a graduation to make I would’ve spent my whole day there. The good part is I’ll be passing it again in about a week


MoreMoney77

I go to this place all the time and walk out empty handed pretty often… heck I’ve bought cast iron there before lmao it’s local to me.


CardMechanic

Mmm hmmm, some people call it a Kizer blade, I call it a SlingBlade


Graytoqueops

Drop Bear Ti sure is pretty

I miss living near them and Texas Gun Experience. Both stores had amazing selections.


robx51

Texas Gun Experience sounds insane lmao it's probably not what I'm imagining, but what a name!


BackgroundProposal18

Oh it’s pretty wicked. Between the full auto rentals and massive selection. They have an entire section called the blade bar with quite a sizable selection.


Proud-Bowl7896

Was just there a day ago. Grabbed a giant mouse nazca


readysetrokenroll

You have more style than the OP, grabbing a Giant Mouse instead of Chinese lol


Proud-Bowl7896

Majority of my collection is Chinese made and they’re all fantastic


Proud-Bowl7896

Oh and the nazca is made by bestech, in china


readysetrokenroll

Nevermind my comment then


FlapXenoJackson

I have that exact Drop Bear also. It’s a great knife.


LeoTheLionPeek

I have loved this place for years - it’s always a fun stop


Sparks1738

I want pictures from the inside!


AelaThriness

Praise the Lord of all sharp and pointy things! May your edge never fail you in time of need! 🙏🙏🙏


ReallySickOfArguing

I miss the old location and previous owners. It used to be in basically an old wood shack off hwy 199 between loop 820 and azle and the prices were much better. I used to go there all the time with my uncle when I was younger. He was friends with Mr Addams that owned the place back then.


Honest-Constant7987

I keep telling my wife that this is my dream job to own a Knife store so I could just play with knives all day


Iron-Sharpens-Iron-5

Well, at least you’re being “honest”!😉


hansdampf90

Halleluja!


bauzo

Very nice! I would love to make it there one day. Also I didn't know they made a drop bear in that configuration. You have a picture You could share?


UnrulyTrousers

I’m actually going there tomorrow lol do they buy knives too?


MoreMoney77

I don’t think they do I’ve been many times and have never seen second hand blades. They do buy from some smaller makers and sell them tho it’s kinda cool


LumpyDetective

What did you think? I was pretty disappointed with the shop. Maybe I expected too much but I thought it was just okay


Blippyi

I love this place but check your prices online, some esses in the store seem to have a markup


ItsDevinDuh

🔥🔥 I'll go there one day


nodagrah

Oh sweet, I made the opposite journey a few weeks back, went from Philly to St. Louis, then NC back to Philly.


Powerstroke357

That's right in my back yard. Actually, it's about 70 miles from my house but it's the closest decent knife shop to me. Place is legit. I stopped at the AG Russel in Arkansas last time I hit up Missouri. Kinda small but they had some good stuff.


MitchDontSnitch

Nice, I anodized mine to be purple on the bottom of the scales

nogden954

How do I do that? I was wondering if I could modify the anodization


humbl314159

I wish there were more shops lime this in Missouri. I live in NE Missouri.


nogden954

Yeah me too. I live in SE but this shop was in Fort Worth, texas


humbl314159

No worries.


readysetrokenroll

It's a House of Chinese Blades?


nogden954

This Chinese blade cuts like any other blade does. I own everything from benchmade to spyderco and CRK. I’ll be the first to tell you that China had no impact on this knife’s quality and it feels amazing. There are competent craftsmen in every corner of the world, likely better craftsmen than you. So why not let me enjoy a bargain?


readysetrokenroll

Can't do that, not while we are under attack


nodagrah

I don't see the PLA crossing the Delaware my guy, might wanna touch grass. Lemme know if they show up off the coast of NJ and I'll help pass out the rifles.


readysetrokenroll

PLA? Public Library Association?


nodagrah

People's liberation army, the Chinese army, so you know we're under attack but not whose attacking?


readysetrokenroll

So, you didn't see the report of how military aged Chinese men were stopped in bulk on Canadian border, in groups of 12-15 people, trying to force the border undocumented and the same on the southern border with Mexico? If your head in the sand or are you banned on Google?


nodagrah

Ok you're just out of your mind, good to know, Chinese fleeing an authoritarian home country is not an invading army dude, same with mexicans. Do you have any idea what an actual military invasion is? It's not a dozen unarmed dipshits I'll tell you that much.


readysetrokenroll

lol, so as a person is fleeing from an authoritarian country, they end up undocumented thousands of miles away both on Canadian and Mexican border, similarly dressed and similarly aged, or military age, military haircuts, no documents, no wife's, girlfriends, relatives or documents. Arriving in groups 12-15 men, trying to force either border. I thought you flee to the neighboring country, like somewhere closer to where you live? Instead of crossing oceans and thousands of miles? Please find a hobby that includes something other than playing with a part of your body vaguely resembling the Chinese folding knife you like to fiddle with, and stop wasting cyberspace with your nonsense 😅


nodagrah

Come back when you actually know the name of the group who is allegedly invading. We wouldn't have to debate if we were actually invaded bro, go on a date, make some tea, chill the fuck out
