I see so many pictures of lights and knives on display light a photo shoot. Yes I'm guilty of it, but I also like to get out and use my tools.

Post some pictures of those pretty tools in action!

It's a great idea but I don't ever have photography gear "out in the world" Only pics I get are in & around the house. I'll live vicariously through yours though. ;) Most excellent.

Yeah, I guess most folks always have a phone with them these days. I should probably get one...

I got them from "the knife connection"
They carry the same lifetime warranty as the blades on the esee series.

I have some Rat knives too! Love them. By far (to me) they are the best value. My favorite I have a older Rat Cutlery, prior to being named ESEE, RC-4. Perfect size and balance (for me). Tough enough to chop logs and sharp enough to shave my unibrow!

When you catch them on sale, or used they are a superior value!!!!!

IZULA 2 stays on my neck. It sees more action than any. But the 5 and junglas get more if a beating when used.

I really enjoy my RAT and ESEE knives. My izula sees a fair bit of use. My RC-5 is for bedside duty.

I like the RAT knives as well. My RTAK II is quite a chopper. I also like the ESEEs. I keep my ESEE 5 in the car in case I need to break some glass. My IZULA II goes with me as my EDC. Great knives. Simple 1095 steel, easy to sharpen and takes a very grabby edge. I carry an EagleTac D25A2 with the IZULA II.

No safe queen here fellas. She will see a pocket as much as her sisters.
Unless the knife is made of gold, it was built to be used. ;)

My most used knife by far. Use it everyday at work. Cuts anything. glass fiber, carbon fiber, thin 1mm alu plates, sky,wood, tape etc :)

The light is a dqg 18650. I had to do a lot of work on this light to get it to work properly without flickering/making me insaine.. (soldering, thermal glue, removing some ano etc..) But now im happy with it. It's really small and got a 18650 for runtimes that can last me a whole day (if needed). The spring in the tube is too weak for a 18650, so if i tap the light, it will change modes. I think the weak spring is fine on work. It's usually tailstanding or clipped to my ear protectors (as a headlamp). I just give it a wack to change modes, no twisting is needed to change modes.

The "not tacticool" looking end of the knife aslo get used alot :)

Added my fallkniven A1. it's a old non laminated version. I't's been used hard. New looking lights and knifes can bee found in the knife and light pics tread :devil:
