A comparison of the collection:

LVC 1947, Warehouse SUFU660, Sam S710XX, Strike Gold SG1105. Alas, I can no longer wear jeans on a regular basis.

labor day bump!

Price Lowered

still available

@was ist los: Incredible looking lineup! Are they all the same size? If so, that's also quite an informative comparison of cuts. May have sold me on some 710s. Good work.

Actually, they're all kind of sized differently. 710s are lot 10 size 28 thinking I could stretch them out (and because i got them signed by nogami), but they never really stretched out enough... Sufu660s are tagged 27, but measure 29. LVCs are tagged 32, but measure 29 or 30.

bump 10char

Just washed my jeans so thought I'd take some pics.

S710xx, WH660, LVC '47

Probably 1 year on the Sams, but they're now retired since they're too small. 16+ months on the WH. Maybe 1 year on the LVCs. Washed or soaked when dirty.

Up for sale is a pair of Strike Gold SG1105 size 31. These are unhemmed and hot soaked once. I am selling because they are one size too large for me even after the soak. I usually wear 29 in other brands, but 30 would have worked out perfectly for me. Other than being tried on, these have NOT been worn and do not show any signs of wear.

Price: $270 shipped CONUS. Payment via paypal. Please contact me via PM.

james, what size do you normally wear in other brands?

There was a limited release on DA36s earlier this year, but I think they sold out already. Kind of mad i missed that train.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Was ist los? Can you tell me how many washes you went through?

I believe 2 initial soaks, 4-5 washes, and a few sporadic soaks if they felt funky. Good luck with your pair, they've really grown on me. I had a hiatus from my pair due to the Warehouse 660 contest and a pair of S710s, but eventually came back to these in the last few months.

LVC 1947 from 2006. Worn on and off since 2007. Probably a year or more wear.

When did you do your first wash on those?

I'm not really sure, but i think i soaked at 2 months and washed at 4?

xpost from samurai threak w/ more details there. 1 year, 4-5 washes?

S710xx 1 year of wear, owned for longer. Maybe 4-5 washes?

Bonus, Nogami's signature still holding up well inside.

Which Samurai's fit like APC Petit Standards?????????????

^Try doing some reading and looking at measurements.

wild, is that a grey nato on your Archimede? Any wrist shots? Thinking about a new strap for my Stowa Airman.

Regarding the mount, the actual mount itself is rubber, so it has some grip. For increased grip, I was thinking about using a piece of those kitchen mats to wrap around the light.

I've got the DX one, or something very similar to it. Just received it this week, but since its been raining, I haven't tested it out yet. Here it is mounted with my eos a3.

Solution is to buy both huh? The wallet will protest to that.

Solix, where do you usually keep your access card?

Debating between Spyderco Cricket and SOG Access Card 2.0. Any thoughts? The ladybug is also on the radar, but I'd prefer one with a clip.
