CRKT M-16 ZSF 3.8" blade.
I was this close to buying one of those but the dual flipper in a pocket just sucks.Quote:

I officially hate you. I've been eyeballing that but no way I could swing it right now.Quote:

Took a gamble on the Bates Rat boots from lapolicegear.com. They're $39.99, but there is a 5% off coupon out there if you do a search for it.
The story, as far as I can tell, is that Bates had a contract with the USMC to supply these boots. One of the batches was complete junk (the d model). The other batches are just fine.
The Marines cancelled the contract somewhere along the line, and now there are a shitload of these boots out there, so they're selling cheap. It's a $300 boot, selling for $39. Here's the catch though: there's a chance you'll get the d model if you order, in which case they will fall apart rapidly. As far as I an tell, based on reviews from lapolicegear, it's about 1/15 chance.
I just got mine, been wearing them all evening, and I'm impressed. They're thick, but pretty light and very comfortable, and breaking in rapidly.I can tell they'll hold up forever. I did not get the d model fortunately. They fit true to size for me (11.5 r).
If you need a pair of boots, and feel like taking a gamble, this is a smoking deal. These are by far the nicest boots I've ever owned.

Dammit man! You made me order one too! [LOL] Thank you[Beer]Quote:

I also ordered those boots, and was unaware of the additional coupons. How do I know if I got the (d) model or not? I'm hoping they come in before rattlesnake hunting.
I'm a bit concerned that they would not be a $300 boot if the government wasn't paying for them; regardless of the canceled contract.
Oh sh*t.. I know what those are... I have a handful myself.... nice [Tooth]Quote:

That make another one of us. Since my current Ariat boots are starting to fall apart after putting them through hell I went and bought a pair. I just hope the wide is wide enough for me :)Quote:

Mine will be here Monday too.
Arrived in Commerce City tonight at 10:54 pm. Think they'll be delivered tomorrow (today), or just hang out there over the weekend?Quote:

Always like getting a new tool, even for a dirty toilet job.

There's a number/code inside the boot. Whatever it ends with, that's the model. You just don't want the d.Quote:

You can get them here too, same exact ones from Bates, but for more money, but all of the money goes to support their cause, a very worthwhile cause for our Vets.Quote:

I highly recommend Lowa's to anyone who asks. Best pair of boots I've ever owned. Ive already put about 20 miles on them in the last 2 days. I went in to buy asolos but my feet are too goofy shaped to fit comfortably in them.

I got my molar implant put in today. Close to $2k. Awesome!
Plus One on LOWA boots - then again, get what fits your foot. I bought some of those Surplus boots, for 40 bucks you can't really go wrong.Quote:

ETA: after playing around with this thing for about 30 mins, I can't figure out why I ever did the separate flashlight hold... this thing is spectacular!
Boots showed up today.
Thank god, I was just thinking how it's been hours since we've had a goddamn post about boots to this thread. [Sarcasm2]
I got a shipping notice today, was hoping they'd be here in time to break them in a little before my trip to Moab this weekend.Quote:
