    I bought some of that recently too.

    Although building the Gnedby's was a pain in the butt. Because I had to put all those pegs and shelves in.

    I recently bought a shedload of cable tidying stuff and velcro rolls so I can put cabling in as nicely as possible. Also 3 noctua redux own 140mm for future water cooling and you upgrades. Hopefully come tax return time I'll be buying a shitload of EKWB stuff and a 5700. Hopefully theres a new release that pushes the process CE even lower on those cards.

    Bought the wife a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 wireless headphones and a Sennheiser BT100 audio Bluetooth transmitter for her birthday. She says she is very happy with them. :grin:

    As I keep my share of the bills paid and don't waste my money on baccy, booze, gambling, drugs or fast women, she is fine with me saving and buying a pair of Focal Elegias later this Spring. :grin::grin:

    Them's the very same headphones I bought, but mine are black. They're pretty swish - though I haven't bothered with the "send us a photo of your ear and you can listen to three music tracks in '3D', it's not because we have an ear fetish honest it's Science" thing.

    I both love and hate Kraken. It's great. But it's far too easy to whoops too much of it and wake up with a raging hangover.

    I bought more stuff because I like stuff;

    5v LED strip
    Micro USB breakout boards - I want USB powered LED's for a bedside light, and I like making my own stuff more than trying to find something I actually like, and/or having to compromise on what I want.
    Scoring tool for various things (Most likely to be used scoring acrylic)
    25m flat cat6 cable - The ghost wire, while cool, wasn't long enough for the fat ******* door frames in Germany.

    £39. It's for my X51. At that price it would have been rude not to.

    Just picked up one of these myself. Can't argue for £10 off the regular price and a modification to the liner lock to make it UK legal EDC.

    How sharp was yours when it arrived, out of interest? 'cos mine's razor-sharp - literally, I did the usual scrape-it-over-some-hair-on-the-back-of-my-hand test and now there's a very clear bald patch...

    Aye, mine was razor sharp out of the box, I always have both hands shaved from testing knives after I've sharpened them.
    When I get the time I'll have a go at getting this one properly sharp, but razor sharp is ok for now.

    I really do need to spend some time watching sharpening videos - I can get my stuff sharp, but not sharp.

    I dare say they'll stop offering the free mug soon so I'll have to find another brew.

    EDC stuff I get just sharp (shaving sharp) as I'll knock the edge of them in quick order so it's not worth my time.
    Stuff that stays at home or is used for food prep (skinning / gutting) gets special treatment.

    I made a paddle strop for sharpening my wood carving knives. The leather is about 34cm long and I use Bolpol Blue polishing compound.
