I've been going through our scissors - some very dull - and sharpening them. Mostly sewing scissors and shears, including Fiskars and vintage Wiss. But I have questions about fine vs coarse grits. I sharpened a small orange-handled Fiskars on a 250-grit DMT plate. The scissors then cut my test fabri...

https://i.ibb.co/4j79w7S/20220717-145944.jpg One of my favorite knives! I have a couple Pro-Techs which are excellent autos, but the Autonomy does a lot of things even better. The lock is more robust, it has essentially zero play after a couple years of use, the firing button is more accessible, an...

The Spyderco benchstones are fantastic! I've been using them to sharpen our numerous, very dull scissors - including some vintage Wiss dressmaker's shears. I start on a DMT folding diamond stone and end with the medium and fine Spyderco benchstones. On dull scissors, removing metal from the full edg...

I read through the original thread! Just picked up a new MGEWholesale exclusive S30V Delica for work (opening bags of coffee, etc). Super excited to try it out!

Just picked up my first wharncliff at Northern Knives here in Anchorage; I needed a friendly looking work knife and this S30V Delica looked perfect.

Funny that y'all mention scissors, as I've always struggled to get them sharp - sometimes they would end up duller than when I started. But this week I sharpened the scissors on two Victorinox Swiss Army knives and my small Fiskars Softgrip. I had trouble feeling the bevel on the SAKs and ended up h...

I bought an Assist with Christmas money. I've been looking at it ever since my sister borrowed/claimed my Rescue. The Rescue I had (black FRN) got me out of a sticky situation once and didn't break in the process - I used it to pry a door up; was the only thing I had so I used it. The performance of...

I see the same thing looking out onto our deck! Only difference is we have a greenhouse that snow piles up on instead of a picnic table.

Guess the knife :) https://nexus.armylane.com/files/dec-2022-spyderco-upclose-lower.jpg Edit to add: someone here on the forums mentioned the BelOMO Triplet 10x loupe and I picked one up. It makes a great macro lens for the phone and sits flush against the body. The optics seem good, too (they began...

Just signed up on this forum but have been a Spyderco fan for a long time. Up here in Alaska it's also been cold, but that's not so bad. It was the two back to back snowstorms that set a record for yearly precipitation. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so: https://nexus.armylane.com/fil...

What about repairing the seams that are coming out and relining the jacket with new insulation? The fabric looks like quality (if it's lasted 20 years, it must be!), which is a vote in favor of keeping it going. There's something special about repairing and continuing to use things you love. If you ...
