well well what's this? hmmm... what say you Sir Rustyblade? Only if you sell the old one! It has been said before: you don't know what RAD truly is until you go straight. So many makes, so many sizes, grinds, finishes, points, and that's just the blades. Then there is the scales... :shock: Remember...

sal, as long as you are a part of this forum you will never achieve true fidelity. Way too much temptation. If you break your fidelity though I will lobby the admins to remove your custom title. :lol: Technically, if he replaces his US 58 TV for an English 58 TV and maintains fidelity with the Engl...
