Just wanted to say that my SPOT is also messed up. Here's my writeup on BFC: <a href="http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=229094">http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=229094</a>

Also, here are pics if anyone's interested: <a href="http://cpm440v ...

Here's a scan that Dexter put up over at Bladeforums:

<b>Sword and Shield,</b>
All of the ads I have on my site are from the Spyderco Story. I don't really have too many back issues of Blade sitting around but if you could send me a scan of the ad I would gladly put it on my site. Sounds like a cool ad!

<b>Dijos,</b>
Thanks! Now that you mention it ...

Thanks for the compliments, fellas! Coming from this gang, it means alot.

ATE,
I could redo it with separate knives, but part of the pitch is the versatility of the Perrin. Today I used mine for gardening duty, yesterday for IWB carry while walking at night, and the day before that for some kitchen ...

From the man himself:

"We usually numner the first 1000 (as mentioned) of a collaboration design. In house designs usually get the first 200 numbered for the collectors.

sal"

Only the first 1000 pieces of a <b>custom collaboration</b> knife are numbered.
For a regular production knife like the Jester, the first 200 are numbered.

I received a good response from scanning and posting the old Spyderco ads and I really enjoy taking photos of my knives. I slapped this together with Photoshop. Let me know what you think. It aint great but I think it's pretty good.

AAARRRGGHHH!!! I can't get the image upload to work.

Anyway, yes the Forum model came in plain-edge: I have one. I'll try and put up a pic elsewhere.

The G in the product code means G-10 so the C46GP model is the G-10 model. That picture is incorrect.

If it's any help, the sheath for the Morans and the Perrin come with Mini-Tek-Loks from Blade-Tech.

If the Temperance comes with a kydex sheath I would assume it would come with a mini-tek-lok. I don't know how the accessory tab on a pfd works, but you can see the tek-loks here: <a href="http ...

Haven't noticed the correlation at all. It shouldn't matter as long as you're fully disengaging the lock bar. My Calypso Jr, Native, and Merlin all have the boye dent. Only the Merlin fails to close under gravity.

It has more to do with blade mass, pivot tension, and breakin than the boye dent if ...

Double post. Sorry.

I have both, and while I appreciate both of them, the 204 is of far more value.

Rger No. 1,
No contest: for EDC, the Temperance wins. It doesn't ride so damned high and it's lighter. The Gunting is great for what it is, but it aint a great everyday utility piece. I carry my Gunting in a kydex holster on my belt but the Temperance rides clipped to my pocket when I carry it.

For ...

Jeff,
we posted at the same time. Thank you very much!

Joe,
While that's seems like a broad generalization, I think there's some truth to it.
When I first placed my pre-order, I only wanted the Leaf Point, but when I got the pair I fell in love with the Trailing Point. As I said, the Trailing Point carries better as the handle covers the blade.

Edited ...

BTW - They're smaller, yet thicker and heavier than the Military.

Here's a review I wrote in November over on BFC. I still love 'em! The Trailing point sees more carry. I thought I would like the leaf point more but the trailing point is lighter and carries better as the blade fits into the closed handle better.
