Not much revolutionary, mostly evolutionary and copying other makers' work.

The Chinese are knocking off everyone's work, including intellectual property, trademarks, signatures, brand logos, warranty cards, and registrations. I would be very careful of high end knives, etc. bought from individuals or unknown dealers.

There were a few of them, to be sure. The Brit ladies from the Hot Shots Calendar were rather pleasant. I haven't seen their previous calendars but I like their James Bond theme for this year's calendar.

Lindsay from the Tactical Girls calendar was a cute and funny little lady.

Okay you two, let's see the pictures.
I'm pretty sure you both have a few to share.
