New Ruger gear from CRKT

They just gave this link on twitter, https://www.crkt.com/collection/ruger-knives.html

I do like the Ruger Centennial Knife

I'm glad to see the Ruger name with a quality company now and not the cheap crap they were with before.

The steel is 8cr13TofuMov,I have to sharpen it everyday even after only light Use.

My other 8cr13mov knives don't have this issue.

This morning, I made it razor sharp which was really easy to do, then sliced up a pizza on a cardboard box for lunch, I looked at the edge afterward, a white line is already visible.

I've had several good CRKT knives, and one bad one. It went dull without cutting anything. Seriously!! The blade was so full of internal stresses that the edge would curl/roll within 24-48 hours of sharpening without so much as cutting a piece of paper. Sometimes you can compensate a blade like this by favouring one side when sharpening, but that one just didn't want to stay sharp at all.

Not really much of interest here, to be honest. The pivot bolt on the All Cylinders series is kind of near, but thats about it.

I will be buying one i am a big Ruger Fan. Some of my favorite guns Moded Mini 14, GP100 4'' SS 357 Mag and of course my dog Ruger. 
I think Alcohol, Tabacco and Firearms should be a convenience store, not a government agency.

I dunno... the Cordite Compact and Follow Through knives look interesting.

I like the look of the Hollow-Point and the Hollow-point compact.
