Cor blimey gov!
That snappiness when opening and closing is what is lovingly referred to as "walk and talk".
Had yourself quite a conversation..

It happens to all of us, regardless of years of experience.
Just a few weeks ago I was doing some cleaning and lubing and before I knew it, I was bleeding from TWO fingers!

Shirogorov is a Russian brand, producing high end folders. Years ago, I had seen many pics and heard nothing but good things about their knives.
Eventually I picked one up on the secondary market- my fate was sealed.
I became a Shiro fanatic from that day forward.

So, this past summer when I started dipping my toe back in to the knife world, I knew it was just a matter of time.
Just picked up my second new Shiro (this time around), the Gen 5 F95. Needless to say, as always.. impressed.

So many beauties in this thread. I haven't bought a pocket knife in many years, as my interests have veered towards other things and my collection is ample enough to have kept me entertained in my daily selections. Another one I like very much is this one by Jerry Halfrich, small and easily carried in any slacks pocket. No pocket clips for me.
