Glad you're happy, JJ!  The world needs more happiness.

I've been considering picking up a Squid for a while, especially when I saw the ones with Micarta scales, & the ones with Jade G-10.  Then they came out with their "large" model -- the "XM", which stands for, of all things, "extra-medium".  That's the Squid I need in my life, the XM.  :)

Happy is nice .... a new knife is even nicer!!  Have always liked CRKT knives.  Used to buy a bunch of their Drifter models to hand out as gifts.  Still keep one in the car.

On my 'new' one, I took the clip off making it pretty sleek.  It is a little bit of a smaller knife so I understand the addition of a lanyard as well.

Don't carry too many modern folders these days, guys, but this one might get me going in that direction again.  Not too thick.  I don't usually use pocket/belt clips though.  On some they seem to get in the way... The Squid, not so much.

I have added a short lanyard to give my pinky something to wrap around when I'm using it.  Seems fitting on this one.

And everyone loves it when Ol' Grumpy is a happy camper! :-D 

Nice flip - Christmas gift card for a Squid I mean - well done you! I have not owned one of these - but I sure do enjoy looking at yours. After reading Kevins post here, I bet it does ride nice. Let's hope your clip stays tight.

Very Nice!  I really like that blade design.

I have had two now.  The first had Jade G10 scales and a blacked out blade.  It unclipped from my pocket and I lost it.  I really liked the shape and feel of it so I found one with steel scales, so I grabbed it.  I had to laser mark that one though.  Added Jörmungandr to the non liner lock side of the knife.
