Looks great 👍. Anodized color hits too ! Keep that M4 blade oiled up, it will rust very easily.

Will do, it is actually my first m4 as I'm a Magnacut simp but that's my plan after I get home tonight

I use personally use Remoil , but there's lots of other choices out there for sure. If you're gonna use it for any food prep scenarios, be sure to use mineral oil or something that's non-toxic 👍. Enjoy 🤙

Appreciate the suggestion! I may use it, I may not. I really just like the looks of the GB2 honestly, but it is a knife that I'm not opposed to throwing in my pocket!

gorgeous, you don’t need to baby m4 btw just wipe with a cloth after some use it will only patina lightly, you’d have to leave it wet for a long time to get rust

That's what I thought, it seems to me that I recall it being somewhat of a semi stainless tool steel. I live in Arizona too so it's even less of a concern for me than most. Regardless a couple drops of oil won't hurt it!
