Martial Arts of Shaolin (AKA Shaolin Temple 3; 1986, Mainland China). Director: Lau Kar-Leung. Action direction: Lau Kar-Leung. This was the first movie that Lau Kar-Leung directed after Shaw Brothers Studios ceased movie production. All of the performers were top-class Wushu athletes. Lau Kar-Leung...

I started using my left hand for a lot of things as a kid, but one of the things that really pushed my “fine work” ambidexterity were the years I worked as a stenographer (court reporter and real-time captioner for hearing-impaired). To even qualify for the national exam, you had to achieve a speed ...

If I were to do this write up the title would be "The Tale of 22 Hawkbills". Actually I have had more than that over the years but I think that's close to what I have in my footlocker now as we speak. Even though I have what some might perceive as an unhealthy obsession for the Spyderhawk model I s...

Duel to the Death (1983; filmed in South Korea & Hong Kong). Directors: Ching Siu-Tung & Lee Hyung-Po. Action directors: Ching Siu-Tung & Lau Chi-Ho. Many years ago, my response to this movie was lukewarm, mostly because of the extremely fantastical nature of the fight scenes. But over the years, I'...

Hi Aaron, 'We're still testing SPY27. II'll check on the 45. Hi James, We generally don't in our literature, but when afi's on the forum ask, I try to give some sort of an answer. I just don't want to get into the argument with the "experts". sal Thanks, Sal. This will be much appreciated. Jim

Bestech Fanga ($80) Could easily pass for a $250 if the steel was a premium! Imo, this is even better than the Swordfish! Man, incredibly well built and smooth as freakin silk! Talk about value........ And, these Eastern European designers make the most badazz blades man! Between the Polish guy tha...

I thought that Spyderco doesn’t release the HRC hardness stats.

I clicked on right-handed, which I am for writing and eating, but I throw a ball and other things equally (and sometimes better) left-handed. Going a bit OT, I'm completely ambidextrous in striking with my hands. As far as operating a knife, I am definitely right-handed, but a few years ago when I w...

We have snakes in my immediate area, but I just don’t see them. AFAIK, no rattlers, though. Mainly, the reptiles I do see, when I see them, are alligator lizards, which I’ve always liked a lot. They look kinda like snakes with legs, and when I do see them, I let them do whatever they do in the food...

The small Inkosi is a great knife. I like mine enough that I hope to get a large Inkosi one day. I prefer the small Inkosi to my small 21, and the Inkosi design over the Sebenza in general.

The Iron-Fisted Monk (1977, Hong Kong (filmed in South Korea). Director & action director: Sammo Hung. The Iron-Fisted Monk was Sammo Hung’s first full movie as director. Before that, Sammo had already been action directing in movies since at least 1970, and was one of the best action directors anyw...

This is my all-time favorite baseball bat fight scene:

Warehouse fight: Lau Kar-Leung & Norman Chu vs thugs:

Actually, legOFwhat? posted a Kung Pow clip on page 2 of this thread, but it’s all good. Thanks again. Jim I don't know how I missed that. :D No sweat, remnar! :) I’m sure I’ve probably posted songs in the “What are you listening to?” thread that were already up, because that thread is so huge now,...

Well, at least there’s some hopefully good news there, Bloke! And also, hopefully the rain might help a bit to clear the air of particulates from the fires, as well as supply you with a good source of water.

It almost sound like it could have been named S32.5V? However, it does sound good to me.
