Hi all. I've carried pocket knives of one kind or another for the last 24 years. I've recently started carrying a LM Wave that my uncle gave me back in 2007. I soon realized it's usefulness. I bought an ST 300 for work and to keep from wearing my Wave out, since it holds sentimental value. I still pair my mt with a dedicated folder as I find it quicker to deploy. I have already learned a lot from the forums and look forward to more.

I live like 6 miles from East St. Louis, and you think YOU live in the armpit of America?  :rofl:

Welcome to the boards! Folks here are super-helpful, so don't feel any hesitation in asking any question (although it's probably better to do a search first to see if it's already been covered). I hope you enjoy your time with us!
