Hmm.. Totally was not expecting this.
Spydies tend to pop up in manga a lot!

I just couldn't help it =]

I feel this way without a Spydie clipped to my pocket... almost..

Very cool. I love it when people make stuff with their own hands instead of buying.

It is surprisingly easy cos it's not really a 3D carving. I just draw the charcters in reverse onto the rock with pencil and scrape/cut away everything that is not my name =p Being rock, you don't need to scrape very far for the characters to stand out when stamped onto a flat surface. The rock is q...

Take a shower with your knives. Great bonding time.

Paramilitary: just can't stand the look of the pivot. It just looks so.. off Native: eegh Lava: One of the first Spydies I saw. It made me write Spyderco off as a company which makes weird knives.

I just lined my knives up and am surprised that only half of them are Spydies! Shows how much I think of the others =p I think I have a good mix and have stopped buying knives cos I realised that I don't NEED any more.... <sniff> The knife I carry the most is the spydie URBAN wooo!

I went and got an Atlantic salt cos it looked like a straight razor and had a nice hollow grind (I'm weird right?)

It is a razor all right! stainless too =p
edge isn't as good for shaving as my Opinel though..

I've always thought that the G10 Endura was the only Endura that was aesthetically pleasing to me. I gotta get one..

I LIKE IT! But I use Japanese whetstones (prob the most expensive option though) Before I found out that I could get a perfectly INSANE edge with the old wet/dry and a strop, I spent ages on the forums, agonising over which wetstone I should fork out my hard earned (student and can only work 3 hrs ...

Chlorine is bad beacuase it stops the Chromium in SS from forming a protective layer of oxide over your blade. @ Jim The clip is made of titanium. Its main purpose is to hold the knife to your pocket. If it has allowed your knife to fall out of your pocket into said mixture of acids, it deserved to ...

I vote for the..

Stretch
Kiwi (more ergonomic than you might imagine)
Tenacious (proof that cheap knives aren't all rubbish)
Caly 3

For the ability to get insanely sharp on a budget, you will need the following items: ☺ Wet/dry SiC sandpaper 800 - 2000 grit ☺ Something flat and hard; glass or a tile will do ☺ Something flat but yielding; leather, vinyl ☺ Stropping compound ☺ Water To keep a bevelled edge, wet your flat surface a...

Stretch. In use or during knife fondling sessions, it just feels great it your hand!

Haha that is awesome!
Shoulda charged them a couple of Spydies worth!

Here's a pic, but not quite my EDC. Everything's hard to see but cbs getting camera.
