How to deal with lost knife?

Two days ago I was pickpocketed :( getting your knife lost is one thing but someone pulling your belongings from your pocket is whole another issue.I'm thinking only one way to deal with that is to get another one.It's just cost sooo much.

Re: Byrd for first timer?

Let's not pretend to be all proper and stuffy. Flicking knives is cool. It's way cool. Everybody knows it. But only in the privacy of your own home. Flicking knives in public is a totally ghetto move akin to whipping out your gun at a dinner party. This could be a good opportunity to teach the kid ...

I have a cara cara 2. It’s a large knife and in no way flickable. But I love it and carry it everyday at work in a very nasty environment and it holds up well and is super easy to sharpen.
Yeah not what I am looking for,but what about quality of it?From what I research price wise they pretty good.

Re: Byrd for first timer?

I have to disagree, flicking, in my opinion isn't necessary and I don't particularly care about being cool when opening a knife. That said, a Byrd Crow would be a very nice knife for a responsible 12 year old. The Chicago is a nice little knife, but for the money I would go with the Crow. Definitel...

Re: Byrd for first timer?

I'm not trying to question your parenting, but don't you think showing an 11 year old how to properly use and handle a knife in various situations safely would be more important? Flicking knives certainly isn't safe, especially in small hands of a child. You'll find most people around here really a...

Re: Byrd for first timer?

[Flickability is the primary concern for a knife for an 11 year old?

Re: New to this with old questions and concerns

I agree with Wartstein, the Manix 2 or Manix Lightweight would be great work knives. Slightly cheaper than the pm2 (the lightweight even more so), but still available in several steel options, and still high quality folders thst are very tough and reliable. Many folks on here use them as work knive...

Re: New to this with old questions and concerns

Oh yes, spyders tend to multiply quickly. Before you know it you'll have 10...no idea what happened, they'll just appear. That's how it was for me. Tenacious first, then a Resilience. Decided to try a Manix 2, and a Manix 2 lightweight, Para 3, Sage 5, Amalgam, Persistence, Para 3 lightweight... Ha...

I'd like to know more about the letter that was enclosed in the box. I was under the impression that only Sprints and Exclusives came with a letter; none of my stock models came with one anyway.
