Hello Robert, they're great aren't they. Every time I tell myself I shouldn't buy any more knives....and every time it's the A.G. Russell ones that I end up getting anyway.

The folding Hunter is the one that's been tempting me for a while now. How are you liking it? I'd love it if you could write a review for the "a sharper review" group here on IKC. You can find it in the forum I believe. There's already at least 1 A.G. Russell knife in there.

Different strokes...for...different folks.

A little political? I'd say a lot. I'll pass on it for now. I've plenty of opinion on the subject and plenty of reasoning to share if asked. But I'll not do it here and now.

 

Regardless, the "China is the devil" thing is getting a bit old to me. Bottom line here is I'm excited about the knives mr Russell has produced in China. And I'll probably continue to buy them 

No hard feelings personally to anyone who thinks otherwise. Thei're all entitled to their own opinions.

Just because someone doesn't have a coice doesn't mean they're automatically a communist. Under your reasoning everyone living in German occupied territory during the secind wirkd war was a nazi.

Sorry man, but that flag doesn't fly with me.

 

You of all people should know your own history during the German occupation of WW2…What did you do to the collaborators after the Canadians liberated you?  Being in a captured country is a lot different then being in one that has gone a certain direction.

There is a huge difference in Nazi Fascism to Communism even though a lot of the practices are the same—mass murders, mass interments, abolition of rights and freedoms, etc.

Remember, that if you wanted to get ahead in Germany proper then you had to be a good little Nazi, a card carrying member of the National Socialist Party, had your children in the Hitler Youth and be spouting all the propaganda that Joseph Goebbels put out or you suddenly found yourself out of a job, out of a home, maybe arrested and maybe even sent to a work camp.

Same thing with Communist China, you may not believe in the doctrine and many—make that most—from Macao and Hong Kong don’t BUT you had better be in the good graces of the “commissars” and party officials or the same thing happens to you as did to the German.

When there is but ONE party in the race it’s hard not to be labelled being that now isn’t it, especially if you voted (or were told for whom to vote).

Sorry, but no.  Those knives are completely sold out and we have no seconds available either.  The only place I could suggest looking for them is to try eBay.  I haven't seen a 2008 come back in a while, but I do get the 2009 ones every so often, sometimes in good shape and sometimes scratched up.  I can keep an eye out for him and shoot him a message if I get one if he would like, but keep in mind that it could be a couple of years down the road before one surfaces again.

Chase, we have a member that is looking for a 2008 and a 2009 Texas Ranger right now. He checked with the AG Russell store and they are sold out, if you would know where he could find one let us know. His name is Alex Noot. Thanks!

A.G. Russell™ Texas Ranger® 2011

 

Limited to 1,000 Pieces.

For the 2011 Texas Ranger Commemorative, I chose to combine elements from several traditional folders, creating a Sub-Hilt Toothpick with a Barong blade. Locking knives were almost entirely unknown in Texas during the 1840s. Remaining true to that fact, this model is a slipjoint. The unusual 4-1/8" blade is leaf shaped and almost a full inch wide of 8Cr13MoV at 57-59 Rc. and is etched with "188 yrs. of service" in a furled banner. The Toothpick style handle has stainless steel liners, bolsters and caps, and a nickel silver inlay of a Texas Ranger Badge with the words Texas Rangers - 1823-2011. The handle scales are Ebony Rucarta™. Measures 5" closed and weighs 5.5 oz. Includes a black leather belt pouch. Made in China.

This is an outstanding knife, every bit as fine as the 2008, 2009, and 2010 Texas Ranger Knives. Limited to a total quantity of 1,000, each of the previous three models have completely sold out. We expect this one to sell quickly as well.
