Re: The best part of giving away a Spyderco...

I gave 3 to my brother and they just sit in boxes on the shelf. I doubt he can tell the difference between good and bad when it comes to cutlery. I gave my friends one each and I have never seen them again, nor heard mention of them. :mad: People either see the value of carrying a knife or they don...

Re: Most Ideal PE Or Spyderedge

My multitool has a nice serrated blade in case I need to cut rope or some other fibrous material. I'd rather have a PE for my main knife. For a while, I carried a SE Ladybug in addition to a PE Endura, and never used it.

Its being rehabbed with a 4R35 transplant. Nice band. Th...

Re: The best part of giving away a Spyderco...

My wife uses the 2 Dragonfly Salts I gave her. She has two because she misplaced one and found it after I bought the 2nd.

Re: Which Endura is your ideal all-arounder?

Where are you guys getting these scales at?? I don't know if this was directed at me or not, but mine came in foliage green G10, my first Spyderco. For a long time, I resisted collecting other knives, thinking I had found the perfect one for me. I still think this would be the one I'd keep if I dec...

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?

I have nice set of Case kitchen knives and steak knives that belonged to my grandparents. But it's much more fun to use a cool folder to make a salad. Besides, my Manix 2 Backlock fits my hand perfectly.

A plain old FFG in VG10. I'm rather partial to this one.

Of the Spydercos I've owned, the Manix 2 feels the most like a utility knife.

I'm confident that my knives will never be particularly valuable. I carry and use all of them.

Re: spyderco throwing knife/knives

Spydercos are all about function, at least the ones I buy are. There is no practical reason for throwing a knife. If you throw it at a bad guy, who isn't going to stand still, you will probably miss and provide him with another weapon. If you throw it in at an apple or something, you're just being s...

Re: Why would a company NOT carry Spyderco?

Perhaps Spyderco chooses not to do business with them. I wouldn't want something that I produced sold in a store/website that sells mostly junk. I've only found 2 stores in the Waco, TX area that sell Spydercos. Maybe they cost more than the average person wants to spend around here. Then again, I'...

Re: Good knife to carry in a bra?

I gave my wife a Dragonfly Salt, but I'm pretty sure she carries in a pocket.
