Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???

No picture but along with my Roadie I have a Victorinox Executive (my favorite SAK) and a Streamlight microstream).

My red roadie - a Father’s Day present and perfect for slacks in the office.

Re: chess puzzles

I love these. I’ve just started really learning chess and use the chess.com app. I’m finding the puzzles to actually be the best teachers.

Re: The Dodo 2019

Just looked at the prototype at BLADE while chatting with Eric and it is a beautiful piece.

Re: Spyderco's Unique & One Of A Kind Sharpening Tools?

I have just recently gotten a Golden Stone. And I love it EVEN more than my Sharpmaker, enough so that I rarely get my Sharpmaker out. There is something seductive about teh simplicity and ease of the Golden Stone and just pulling it out and doing a few quick touch up strokes. I know there are prob...

Re: My GoldenStone came in

I'm a week in with my GS and I love it more than I ever did my Sharpmaker (which I LOVE). I did also figure being "white" it wold be equivalent to the white Sharpmaker rods. For me personally, the GS is the golden mean for sharpening. I've got my EDC red Roadie perfect, touched up a beater...

Re: Am I paranoid about counterfeits?

I don't remember exactly how mine was packaged, but that sounds about right. I do recall thinking at the time that the packaging was very minimal. The Golden Stone is a great maintenance tool for quick touch-ups! I'm able to keep most of my knives very sharp with only a few passes here and there. Y...

Re: Am I paranoid about counterfeits?

Update - It is LEGIT. Just took my EDC red roadie and did 10 passes on each side and went to (clumsily) close the roadie and it caught my fingertip SHAVING off a chunk of the tip. Thank you Sal and Spydercrew. I've looked at the golden stone for a while and finally took the plunge. The simplicity is...

Am I paranoid about counterfeits?

Just purchased a Goldenstone from Amazon (super excited) it just arrived and the only "packaging" is the stone in its leather pouch inside a plastic baggie with a bar code. Is this correct? Should it be in a "blister pack"? Or am I just unnecessarily worried about fakes?

Thanks!

Stretch 2 thoughts

I'm getting back into knives and specifically Spyderco after a long absence and was looking at the Stretch 2. I'm rotating a Roadie and Dogtag as my office EDC in dress slacks where I try and be low-key. I'm looking for a "larger" model for my off hours. I carried a Delica for years and wa...
