Re: Michael Janich Discussing the Wharncliffe

"The upcoming Swick design is very much influenced by Mike Janich and Fred Perrin with a little bit of sal thrown in.

OK, I am officially intrigued. Sal, you just named three of my favorite knife designers! I can't wait to check this one out.

Re: Police 4 lwt Emerson waved model?

Hopefully the Police lightweight is next in line for a waved model.

Police 4 lwt Emerson waved model?

I'd love to have a Police 4 lightweight Emerson waved model. Would anyone else be interested in one?

Re: C-60 Ayoob Campaign: No I Won't Shut Up

I love this design. I've carried a SE aluminum handle version for years and years. It's been a great EDC. I have a PE G-10 handle version that is NIB. I much prefer SE then PE in this design. I'm in for a SE G-10 handle version. Best of both worlds. VG-10 is fine. Look forward to carrying and using ...

Re: C-60 Ayoob Campaign: No I Won't Shut Up

I'm completely onboard with it! I have one SE version that has been used and abused for years. I love everything about it except for the aluminum handle, it can get pretty slick. I have another PE version that is basically NIB. It's such a well thought out functional design that excels as an EDC. I'...

Re: YOJUMBO has been released!

Sweet! I'm off to my usual knife dealers to see who has one in stock. Thanks for the heads up. That M4 / Ti Yojimbo 2 is AWESOME! Great job putting that together. I think I'll build a Yojimbo 2 like that after I get the Yojumbo. I have an original Yojimbo, a Yojimbo 2 and shortly I'll have a Yojumbo...

Re: PM2, Emerson Wave, & Sprint steel.....

Wow, I can't believe all the "hate" and "lecturing" on the evil Emerson Wave on a Spyderco knife forum?! It's simple and effective. It also doubles as a wonderful bottle opener. Other PM2 models exist without it. Why shouldn't Spyderco make one? Kudos Spyderco team for releasing ...

Re: Li'l Temperance 3: A (not so) li'l review

The Lil Temp is one of my favorite Spyderco designs. A purposeful design with top quality F&F and manufacturing. I have two original lil Temps which I love and have carried for many moons. One with a trailing point and one with a leaf point blade. I think the Lil Temp 3 is an improvement on them...

Re: Bladeops waved pm2 exclusive

YES! Love the Emerson Wave feature but I've never had good luck with Emerson Knives. I've had a couple Emerson's and I've never been too impressed. I love the ergonomics but I'm not happy with the execution or F&F. After deploying them with the wave, the liner lock always "walks" right...

Re: Street Beat Discussion

I'd be in for a green or natural micarta handled model with an uncoated blade. I'd be happy with VG-10 or better.
