Lord only knows how many edged tools I have.
I have some here and there and located throughout various pieces of kit.

Those are very nice shoes.
I really would like to replace the Mr. Peanut ones on my Kimber Warrior, and those would fit the bill nicely.
Nice Vitamix.
I bought one a few months ago.
Nice investment.

To answer your question, yes I do.
For the bulk of my online knife purchases, I go to Knifeworks.

That Springer is very easy on the eyes.
Congrats!
I use the Federal Tactical Low Recoil.

I use Wilson Combat 8 round ETM magazines in my 1911's.
I highly recommend Kifaru, but I don't know if they have black as an option.
Eagle Industries makes good kit.
London Bridge.

I do concur about the Desantis Nemesis.
I also like the kydex ones from Stellar Rigs.
I have both.
I use both.
Just called them looking for some 550.
An older sounding gentleman answered the phone.
They are indeed closed for business.
I like the Ruger.

I have a Kimber, but it doesn't have any of the Series II/80 mechanisms in there.
As a puredee SD knife, it could manage.
I feel there are far better choices out there.

For what you are looking for, I would suggest the ESEE or Becker/Ka-Bar line.

Knifeworks has an excellent selection of both.
I mostly use my slide stop as a slide stop.
I very rarely use it as a "slide release".
Normally, I use the overhand method to drop my slide.
(More hand to metal contact that way.)
If necessary, I pull it back with the thumb and index fingers of my support hand.
I would prefer the steel reinforcement in the critical area(s) like the ones my Bulgarian waffles have.

I am interested in the 1911 stocks as well.
