I bought an SRK, SRK-C, ad Recon last year around thanksgiving. I gifted my brother the Recon Tanto and a Spyderco Smock for Christmas. We lboth live in FL btw…. So Sometime this spring he had a snake crawl into his house through the doggy door. Luckily he had this F*cking Bad ASS piece of hardware in his night stand. The dogs alerterted him an he cut that fu*ckers head off with his Cold Steel Recon!
