Thank you! How would rate the Goyard pattern? Is it raised and bumpy

Pretty good to my untrained eye!

The reverse side of the card holder the pattern isn't 100% straight- but yes it's slightly bumpy

How about this Shirogorov trio, First two from left to right are produced by Wild Boar w/ ceramic bearings, TC4 titanium frame with Chinese 9Cr18MoV blade steel.. silky smooth flipping action. The third one is produced by Kevin John, double row ceramic bearings, TC4 titanium frame and S35VN blade steel, overall better fit and finish.. IMO well worth paying more than double the cost of the Wild Boar models. Funny.. some of the rep makers are starting to rep his knives.

I got three MB pens. The starwalker set and a meisterstuck ballpoint. The ballpoint seem great to me. They write clearly and feel good in the hand - decent weight. On one, a little silver detailing ring has come loose, but it's nothing a little superglue won't fix. The rollerball is not quite so good. As others have said, it's a little loose and there's too much give for my liking but for the price I cannot grumble.

I also bought a pair of MB cuff links which are great. Again, good weight and they feel solid.

I bought another ballpoint and a presentation box as a gift for my dad.

Delivery for the pens was fantastic. About 6 days from clicking to door. The cuff links were about 9 days? I also ordered a camping knife and that's still in transit. I will have to update as and when that arrives, and pictures too (I'm on a train right now).

All in all, my experiences so far have been very good with Ali and I intend to keep looking and buying for now! :)

Those knifes are effing cool, but I can't for the life of me think of why I need one. But I really want one. I am a full time desk diver working in finance... what do you guys need to carry a knife around for?

I've ordered one under the guise of needed it for travelling to Thailand. We will be living out in Beach huts. I intend to do a spot of fishing and I might need to make a fire. There's a half-arsed excuse in there somewhere...

I recently stonewashed the blade of the Kevin John (on the right) he doesn't offer a stonewash blade version. You can find out how to stonewash on youtube or PM me .

Don't know what good a watch would be in a zombie apocalypse.. though Rick does have one, but that sword would be a come all to end all!

Is there a customs risk with getting some of the knives posted here to the UK . I think they look cool but I can't help but feel I'd catch some $h!t for it over here...

This is my MB belt I received. It came in a nice branded black box with a fake warranty card and was coiled in a sort of linen bag. I binned these as I don't really have a use for them. I recommend this belt, much higher quality than the other one I ordered .

That MB belt looks pretty damn nice...and it doesn't scream 'look at me' like the gold one does.
Just a pity the star is not squared up. Wonder if you can pop it off and realign it?

I'm finding this a perfect place for kids clothes. They out grow everything they don't ruin so stinking fast.

Good quality and true to size (2T)

I'm going to try that one. I have 3 little boys and clothes go right down the line from one to the next. That shirt looks pretty decent for a rep. Sometimes the embroidery can be really wonky but that one looks good.

I see in the listing that the ponies are blocked out/erased but the item you received has it. Did you know that it was on there when you ordered it?

Those Katanas you guys are looking at are awesome. When the zombie apocalypse happens I think that is the ideal weapon, like Michone in Walking Dead. It is silent, easy to carry, and you can really kick a$$ with it. [emoji12]

I suspected the pony logo was there, like the gen. They do a lot of photoshopping to fly under the radar.
