So we did the "what are you gonna cut first" on the LG101. What are you gonna stab first with these?

 

Oh and those are awesome!

They cut just fine :)

[maroonandwhite]

Oh I know that. I'm just sayin' when I get mine I'm gonna be looking for a whole turkey or something like that to test it on. Those things just look wicked.

Yep. Just told Willis in a PM, I can see the yellow stream running down a liberal's leg now :)

Mike those are awesome!

 

One thing I promise you guys if the Godfather sale goes off as well as it should, at some point there will be a Godson run to match

[hipower]

Very nice! A good subdued look about them.

I can't flippin' wait!! I have nice things (guns, guitars, and now my first pricey knife) but nothing I own stays a "safe queen." Every gun gets shot (a lot) every guitar gets played out, and I've been using my TGO knife like crazy. I like it more and more every time I use it. It feels purposeful. I've liked many other knives, but this is different. I can't wait for the Godfather buy... I think I'm gunna love it even MORE!

Sweet pair o' skinners you got there, Mike! I love the maple! Some day, I want one done in flame maple and sprayed to match my favorite Les Paul!

The Godson is a great knife. Here's a little more perspective...

Good lord! The Godfather is going to be huge!  :rock:

One for right pocket, one for left pocket!

[mikegideon]

One for right pocket, one for left pocket!

 

Left pocket won't work so well. These are all strictly right handed knives

[hipower]

Hmmm. Really hadn't thought about it that way. But that is correct...just like all was meant to be. lol

Don't know about the Godfather, Son but our Rockeyes deploy nicely left handed. I'm a rightie but my gun is over there. Spare mag, wallet, cell, and at least one knife is on the left.

Be careful how you place it in your pocket. While on duty with the State Guard earlier this week, I had my LG101 open in my pocket. Now I've got a few holes in my uniform pocket to patch!

Was it clipped in the back of your right pocket?

No, it was loose in pocket and got turned around with the switch facing out.

Good thing it wasn't a Glock. :) I use the clip on everything

I made that mistake before with a Microtech, always use the pocket clip when carrying an auto especially one that opens with great force Edited July 7, 2014 by willis68

I don't like carrying ANY knife unless it's clipped in, with the blade held against the back seam of my pocket. Fortunately, all 3 of my Protechs are that way.

I won't make that mistake again.  Another mistake that will not happen again is to underestimate the sharpness of a ProTech knife.  It was just a scratch but could have been much worse.

These Protechs may be the sharpest knives I own. Tip up, right hand is required for me. You sure don't want a Godfather turning loose in your pocket any other way.
