It's so easy to get you guys riled up :D
In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion,[3] often for their own amusement.

That reads like something from the DSM. :shock:

Wow. Do Provari owners post crap like this in Dicodes threads?

I completely disagree with your post. The Dicodes website is absolutely useless and the Dani Box is at least 50% more expensive than my Radius.

Edit: Cool! Just figured out the "ignore" feature!
Actually the Dani Box is about $10 cheaper according to an email I rec'd yesterday from a popular Dealer in England. International shipping raises it about $17.50, but ProVape only shows free domestic shipping. Pretty close price wise.

Because I am a dumb@$$ is likely the answer to that. ;-) just where I keep my battery charger. Near the bathroom sink.

If the screws didn't come out of the base fully, it would be perfect IMO. I love the Radius, but that is the only design flaw IMO. Nitpicking, but these things ain't cheap!
I wonder whether a small oring placed around the inside of the screw could make it captive?

I already ordered replacement screws. Zero chance that I won't lose a screw eventually.
There is now...

Once I order a replacement (anything) I never need it.

Just My Luck, Jim

The Dicodes Dani-Box is a better buy. The build quality is better, swapping the battery is a breeze and it has one of the best boards on the market in it. It also comes with 2 years of warranty. The only reason to buy the Radius is because you're too stubborn to admit there's better stuff to be bought.
Howdy Lem!!!

Houz the Wifeys Radi doin?

Wait 6 months, and the price will be even lower still...

Thanks for the info!!!

Here's a close up of the mark.

RH (P/\L) -34
Made in USA

The /\ looks more like a Mason's square, rather than a capital A.

I read Hb's post yesterday, and it just did not click with me until today, and I remembered that I had a similar knife like the one he posted, I have had it for a long time, I am not positive but I think it was my dad's. It is not in great shape, but figure what the heck, I know nothing about knives.:unsure:





So I guess, is it just a piece of junk?

KAS
Oh No! It is most def. NOT a piece of junk. A fine knife indeed!:)

Not in my case. I won't say what I paid for my Radius out of respect for the B&M that gave me a great deal, but it was MUCH cheaper than any Dani Box I have seen online.

My google search showed me where the serial number was usually stamped, right where you said, there is nothing on mine as far as I can tell, thanks for the info though. :)

Yours is a Ka-Bar, and was also made by the Western Knife company. It's a Huter. A lot did however make it into service no doubt.
