Re: Seeking opinions
I second the Knifesteelnerds resource and will throw out another consideration REX45. What you desire is a balanced steel. If you get high edge retention then that means lower toughness and if you get higher toughness you get lower edge retention. Ultimately you must give up some of one to get more ...

Re: Pacific Salt talk
Thought I would throw this out. Vivi has been on the bandwagon long enough along with others that I broke down and purchased a Pacific Salt in H1 with a SE. Limited use yet but it is nice. I can see the attraction.

Re: Fake-O-Rama on eBay
Greed and money get the best of both sides. The sellers see a quick way to make money selling fakes to suckers and the buyer's have a greed to obtain a good knife for next to nothing, These two are made for each other.

Re: Blade HQ M4/Micarta Shaman
Almost scored two by accident, but just got one. Whew that was not fun. Most crashing I have seen since the demolition derby.

Re: UKPK Magnacut?
Logical yes, because it would allow Magnacut to be sold into areas it can not go in a Native 5 due to existing laws.

Re: DLT CruWear Purple G10 PM2
You are right and I am amazed at the continued surge in sales. I guess people just can't get enough of the cruwear at a good price.

Re: DLT CruWear Purple G10 PM2
My bet is on the turning point. I like the color combo, I like the steel, I like the paramilitary 2, even the price is great, but for some reason it doesn’t call out to me. This isn’t just this release. Had it been a different company or different spec’d knife I may have felt the same. I think the ...

Re: Blade HQ M4/Micarta Shaman
They have a video up on Instagram if anyone's interested. Any hint at a date? Not that I've seen, but I agree it does at least seem like they have a production sample so they may just be waiting for shipping to get them all in hand first. I'm sure they also schedule releases like this around other ...

Re: Para 3 for EDC
The Para 3 is not a knife I EDC for many of the reasons stated by Wartstein. I carry in the pocket without a clip and the Delica just seems much more unobtrusive in my pocket.

Re: Dreaming of a Jester XL
If it would work, I would not be opposed to a Jester blade shape in a Dragonfly handle. Yes! Proven ergonomics of the Dragonfly handle, perhaps stretched out a bit, plus the function and character of a 2.5 inch Jester blade. Yes, please! Just as the jester blade was put in a ladybug handle putting ...

Difference of opinion is why we have such a plethora of knives today. And I think that is good.

Re: Spyderco 2022 Lists: Delivered & Upcoming
It should be more than a jester just not more than a Manix 2. But who knows I may be the dodo.
