More blades! This time a JCK Gekko Snatoku. It is stunning and absolutely razor sharp. I'm going to have no hair left on my arms if I keep demonstrating it to people!

Where did you get it from please? Link?

Be warned this is a slippery slope. People think you're weird when you own a LOT of knives!

Jck commission some knives for the site. Mine is one of those. Not sure if there's any more of that particular one as they tend to be made on smallish batches. Huge selection on the site though and very very good service.

Frivolous because you can use a cloth and a squeegee for 50p, but the wife has been after one for ages and they are half price on Amazon today only! One Christmas present sorted wink
Our ensuite tiles and grouting were prone to get slight mouldy. Since getting and regularly using one of those we get no problems with mould or dampness at all. The room smells fresher. I think it is better to suck the water into a sealed container rather than into a cloth which then releases some of the water back into the room's air. Ever after a wrong out.
It's also really useful for your car windows too, spray on a bit of quick detailed, go over with this, job done smile

Sennheiser Momentum over the ear, got them for USD 210 so they were a relative bargain, but I can't really tell the difference between them and a USD 100 pair.



HTC One M8, had a perfectly good Galaxy S4, but I can't resist not having the newest and best looking one.

Totally unnecessary purchase but I just loved this kudu sculpture. He arrived yesterday so haven't had an opportunity to position him exactly in the right place yet...

I love seeing your moniker post in threads like this. I open them like an excited child at Christmas. Repeating the mantra 'is it a lamp, is it a lamp, is it a lamp'... You never fail to disappoint. I love it!! thumbup

Thanks Gretch - glad you like him, I think he's really magnificent! His expression changes with the different light.... he needs lighting for evening. Yes the lamp was frivolous too, for the simple purpose of illumination! but just couldn't resist - Decorex is evil biggrin

Thanks! We've completely re modelled the house and garden over 5 years - just contemplating doing it all over again on a new place smile

Just bought myself an Orbitkey http://www.orbitkey.com/collections/premium-leathe...

Went for a black leather one and it tidies the keys up nicely.

Mine has stood up to 12 months of use very nicely (got it from kickstarter). The only down side for me was that the central pin was too big for my house key and broke it frown (the key not the orbitkey). I hear they have made the pin a tad thinner now which would be good.
How well does/would it work with chubb keys, I've got 2 on my current disorganised key lump

thanks

Frivolous because I don't really need it, but just could not help myself.

It's a 2.7 V6 twin turbo too and it does nearly 50mpg on a run thumbup

I think it would be ok with chubb keys, I dont have any though so cant be 100% sure.

I now have one of these, with 4 keys including a Chubb and a mini led torch, six or seven cards and a few paper notes. Just about closes with poppers after a jiggle. smile

Thanks, but really liked the orbit one as it's so compact. Dont fancy a key wallet in addition to my normal one

It doesn't which is why I don't use my orbit key. Only have 2 keys, one of which is a Chubb.

I just got a gopro, I have no real reason to own it yet I found myself needing one, no idea why and I've had it since Friday and I've not used it once.

I'm also currently buying all the extras that go with it confused
