Play when closed? Never heard of that? It can be quite visibly rocked from side to side with a clicky feeling (ie. not just flexing, but moving) in all positions except open with the lock engaged. I suppose thats the most important time it should feel solid. It just kind of sours it a bit for me be...

Its a great knife, I'm just still left wondering if mine slipped through QC or if the blade is supposed to have a lot of play when closed. Never had a knife with this lock before. Tbh it kind of makes me a little annoyed, considering that I never had a Spyderco with this high of a tolerance in the f...

Until my wife lets me have a Honda CBR 600RR, this is what I drive:



Its a Specialized San Francisco 2 (LINK)

Not strictly a mountain bike, 3 gears, no suspension.

Come on people, don't just sit there, Doug did all the work for us, all you have to do is go to the web forms and cut and paste and fill in a few names, it doesn't get any easier.

Medium and fine pro-files and the large fine slip stone.

Where do I get me some of those hat pins?? Never saw those before :eek: :eek: :eek:

Thats an awesome job for doing it in paint (if you want some photoshop like package, completely free, look for The Gimp on google).

I too would not hesitate to get a hawkbill ladybug.

I used hot red whine vinegar and let it soak for a few minutes. I gave it a thorough clean before the soak to get any oil/fat of the blade. Saw this on BF, thought of asking, but I'll ask here. Did you take the knife apart before you soaked the blade? Or did you just stick the whole knife into a gl...

Wow, they are really ripping everyone off, aren't they?? There's at least 5 or 6 lawsuits waiting right there.
