    What knife are you carrying today?

    I’m becoming addicted to the Reed’s. I’ve got two other models also. I should probably clean the bottom one a bit- it’s cut a lot of calves through the spring.

    Pat, This is a little off track, but are you still running AB suppressors on your 22-250’s? If so, are you still content with them or have you found something else you prefer? Thanks
