Umm no idea what the Lava knife is. I’ll look it up but maybe someone should submit a picture just to help.

I lost my blue g10 years ago, but it’s a fun knife and I’d love any flavor of sprint!

If someone has, or created, PDFs of the old catalogs maybe they could be hosted on spydiewiki.com?

Spy27 Manix 2 XL.

I’ve been eyeing the XL for a while. Excited to get it!

Yes definitely!

I might be wrong, but I think it has the SPY-DK handle, which is very similar to the Urban. @elena86 will probably remember for certain.


I don’t have either anymore, but the SPY-DK handle is definitely longer than the Urban but shorter than the UKPK. I actually preferred it (with the choil ...

Looks like some CQI on the meerkat scales? The last one I owned I recall being pinned, and only one pin plus the pivot (under the scale of course).

Almost bought a second hand seki city Starmate the other day. Glad I passed on it!

The Spy27 balance and dyad jr are definite buys.

And the LW Shaman is tempting!

Thank you for all the tips/suggestions/referrals.

I was motivated by a combination of the idea referenced from Michael Janich of using a drill bit, but because of the flattened area on the stop pin in the quoted piece.

I opened up the knife, rotated ...

So I recently came across my old C19PS—which I thought I had lost in a move almost 20 years ago. Turns out it was just tucked away and forgotten in the move!

I haven’t carried this knife since at the latest 2000, and it’s got a fair amount of vertical movement when locked open. Normal wear and tear ...

During some spring cleaning, and putting away some stuff, I came across a box full of nostalgia. Mostly pictures and ticket stubs and other mementos from my younger days.

But among all that was a pleasant surprise. The stuff I literally carried every day, having taken to heart my Dad’s advice to ...

Here’s a Q display at the SFO.

I’ve never seen the Q with a Spyder bug but without the webbing before. That’s my new favorite! I’ve always wanted a blue Q.

I imagine there is a cutoff date?

Just thinking about people who may submit photos to the Photo of the Week thread in coming days/weeks.

I think you got your letters mixed up, the R is the predecessor.

And the S…
I always secretly hoped there’d be a T from the T-MAG.

So the mystery steel is actually…adamantium? Wow!

Blue/Grey VG10 Meerkat to add to my Meerkat collection. Well, pseudo collection. My wife has my orange one and my son has my 440C black one. And I gifted the burgundy one to a good friend. This one is for me. At least for now.

As the OP, I regret asking this question.

I was betting we could keep the discussion away from partisan politics, insults, criticism, and snark, since that's what the forum mods desire, and have said so in many ways. We all know what the rules are. I was thinking we could objectively focus the ...

I use the jimping to remove the plastic wrap on the top of sauce bottles.

This is brilliant. Noted for future use—probably today!

Kind of all over the place size-wise:

1. Lil Temp (all varieties—but particularly the original)
2. Cricket/Balance (it’s a tie)
3. Military 1/2

But hey, if you were thinking of dropping a few grand on a Shiro, one country not on the tariff list was...
Russia.


No comment on the economics or politics, but there’s context to this about Russia (and also North Korea, Cuba, and Belarus) from The Hill:

A White House official told The Hill in ...
