Re: New Halpern Mule scale site

Thanks for the links!

A couple questions for anyone who knows, please:

In the photos it looks like the screw heads are inset on contoured handles and not inset on flat ones?

How thick are the flat handles?

Thanks!

Re: Mule team T-Shirts anyone?

Indeed it is complicated.

Are Spyderco copyrighted images to be allowed?

Ok, it is time to place your votes for the designs. We need to submit to Spyderco our design.
A few Qs please..

How will the voting be organized? A poll perhaps?

Will Spyderco make the gear, or just give permission?

Maybe something a little more simple for my tastes. It is a fun avenue to explore though.

I could like a simple version (second one, with minimized date) too.

Maybe "steel" should be plural to match "testers"?

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer

Also, in defense of the Georgia faction, Lake Sinclair's water is unsuitable for distillation, even with the use of a dephlegmator.

The water is very "salty" due to excretions from the Creature.

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer

I propose that we adopt an official kilt as MNOSD required wear in public appearances.

This way lower legs and socks would be on full display without violating civil dress codes.

These are troubled times, I heard that iguanas are falling out of trees now...maybe angry hummingbirds are at fault?

Re: Mule team T-Shirts anyone?

For those who prefer a simple shield design, with several different font options. I have avoided using the Spyderco bug since I'm not certain where we stand with copyrighted logos, although I imagine the shape of the Mule is basically a trade-mark in itself. Reviewing this, I think the (animal) mul...

Re: Mule team T-Shirts anyone?

I like araignee's last version "v3b" for simplicity and a little mystery.

Also like Bolster's latest, though it may be a little wide proportionally.

What does the fine print say? I would not want random people getting too close to me.

Re: Mule team T-Shirts anyone?

I like the mule face front view, centered without the words, and no harness.

What else? Vertical Mule blades flanking on each side?

The mule's ears are shown as MT knife blades?

Re: Mule team T-Shirts anyone?

I have a couple of hopefully contributive observations on the simplified version. A) The mules white muzzles get lost in the white diagonal banner, so I like Fireman’s idea of “Mule Team” there. B) Color(s) of the shirt should be decided first? For instance a white shirt would need a "stronger&...

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer

Greetings of the day to the esteemed membership of this Most Noble Order. Egads! this whole T-shirt saga with online custom sellers boggles my mind! Maybe just make the artwork available to members, who could then have a local shop print what they wanted? We might thus be a more “secret” Order? In o...

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer

Question for the members of our most noble order. Do we want a knife designed for “Sock Carry”? What knives are already good “SC”? As a newer member, with only one Spyderco knife at a time in my sock drawer, I observed a surprising phenomena: In the morning all the socks (maybe 9 pair) are snuggled...

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer

I have 75 T-shirts on hangers in the closet.

If I bought another one = "Don't you have enough T-shirts/knives/RC trucks..?"

My vote is for red or blue.

Yours in service, #0037
