Spyderco Forums

They are cheap, I paid 6 bucks each for the ones that I bought. Also this is the first knife that I have given my wife that she says she could use and is interested in carrying.

Just received today 3 Bugs! Like many of you I don't like 'made in China' stuff. However, these Bugs are great! Some will say that they are 'too small' to be useful as knives. I say that, yes, they are small, but, they are Spydercos, they are sharp and, I only paid $5.99 Canadian each. 1 is for my ...

I agree that the Spin is a '2 finger knife'. But that's what I like about it. I carry it in addition to a larger knife. It attracts little to no attention when you deploy it. If I need something bigger, I have it.

I made a paracord sling a few years back. I wrapped a wet piece of leather around a golf ball to form a pocket. The paracord pieces are about 40" in length but I find them a little short. I try to sling rocks about the size of a hen's egg. The power that slings are capable of is amazing. Accuracy ...

I carry a ZDP Endura at work. Honestly, a Delica would be just as good (maybe better). As much as I kike big knives, I find that the Endura can, occasionally, feel uncomfortable in the pocket ( but I love it and carry it anyway).

Generally speaking, thin blades are the way to go. There are, however, times when a thicker blade (particularly on fixed blades) is the way to go. I use both.

Love the sound of my ZDP Caly 3. I'm glad to hear that the P'kal sounds so good since that is my next purchase.

I used to despise SE and thought that CE was a cop-out. I've come to realize, however that there is a place for serrations. When I travel by car I now take a blade with at least combo edge so I can quickly cut seatbelts in an emergency.

While it is true that carrying anything as a weapon in Canada is illegal, self defense (athough you better be sure you can prove it) is not. A year or two ago here in Calgary a guy was attacked while waiting at a bus stop. The 'bad guy' attempted to strangle the 'good guy' with a set of booster ...

I often carry a small knife in addition to a larger folder. Sometimes it could be a Jester or Micro Dyad. Other times it could be a traditional slipjoint by Queen, Buck, Case, Shrade, or Camillus. There is something kinda neat about carrying and using these classics.

Hey everyone. I'm new to the forum but have been a long time addict. It all started back in about 1990 when I made the 'mistake' of buying one of the original Delicas (which I still have, by the way). I know I will not find sympathy here but a little comiserating now and again would be good.
