r1crusher Posted September 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 I saw that one as said the same thing. I just wish the handles were different...maybe like the Ops one with that blade. That would be sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Finally got my vapor. The package took some negotiating with my chive. Bigger than I had expected and holy shit Kershaw is by far the sharpest out of the box. The clip is a tad short for my liking but for $15 shipped ill live with it. My only complaint is its made in China. First Kershaw I've ever bought that wasn't forged, assembled and ground here in 'mmurica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxus Christ! Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 Can't use this for edc, the stupid thumb studs scrape the back of my hand any time I put it in that pocket. This knife will reside in the tackle box or with my camping equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester3681 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) Haven't been to the mailbox yet, but USPS says my knife is here - ordered 9/20, delivered 9/22 - from Arizona! If this is true, I have to say I'm impressed with the shipping if nothing else!Edit: Got the knife, no foolin'! Sharp as heck, too, and a pretty good size, bigger than I expected.

fizzer Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 has anyone who got one been able to successfully swap the clip from one end to the other? On mine I can't find the right allen wrench to fit, it looks actually as if when the bolts were installed from the factory they overtorqued them as the corners were rounded off before I even tried to get a wrench in. Also, I have one allen wrench which will fit a few of the holes on the six smaller bolts, but it wont fit all of them? Seems like shitty bolts to me. Going to try and see if kershaw will take it back and replace the bolts/switch the clip for me, sucks for a brand new knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I had no issue swapping the clip on mine, which puts the thumb studs towards the seam of the leg of your pants so they don't tear up the back of your hand. Allen wrench is 1.5 mm. Fits like a glove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I may give this a try cuz that thumb screw is SHARP, found out the wrong way. So R1 I may end up carrying like previously discussed and trying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted September 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Man up and try it. It's not like it's going to rub your clit raw or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcat6183 Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 Dude I hate you, I just found it too and was like oh nice I'll bump that. JK I secretly love you and cannot wait for mad butt secks.I still like this knife, haven't flipped the clip yet because I don't have a small enough allen. Need to just stop in sears with both knifes and "borrow" one off the shelf to switch them and put it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester3681 Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 I liked the position of the clip for how I carry it - I tuck it into my back pocket, all the wat to the right hand side of the right pocket. This is the same side I keep my radio on at work, so if someone approaches me, I can "have my hand on the radio" when really, it's on the old pokey stick ready to go if need be.

namtugeoj Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 For this blade which is better the straight or partial serrated? I already have a smith and Wesson serrated blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaCinci Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 I went with serrated. I've never had a serrated blade and then said, I wish this was a straight blade but have regretted the opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namtugeoj Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 bought the straight blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 Got the serrated! This is going in my tank bag... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 I will say I love how thin this knife is. The CRKT I have is thick and grip is killer, but this thing would be real nice for tighter spaces etc. My EDC knife is still a cheap one from Menards only becasue it seems to fit perfectly.I got a Wusthof sharpener for our new set of knives and used it on the cheapo, and dang, that is a legit sharpener.
