Model: C188ALTI Dog Tag Folder

One of my favorite designs, The Dog Tag Folder, designed by Serge Panchenko. It is always a pleasure to carry this little knife. So small and thin, but surprisingly sturdy. My wife took this picture while on a trip to ...

Happy Belated Birthday, Dimi! I hope you had a wonderful day, my friend. Here's to many more!

-Michael

Thank you, AlexRus and Robin! I appreciate it.

Thank you so kindly, JD, and everyone for the birthday wishes! It was an excellent day, even if I did have to go to work. My wife treated me to dinner at our favorite restaurant and we enjoyed cheesecake and cinnamon coffee cake when we got home.

Good to know. Thanks Michael!

You're welcome! :) (Of course my darling wife suggested this evening that I just leave my knives at home. I said, 'Of course you know me better than that.' )

May plan a trip in the next couple of years that would bring us across the border. Is a UKPK ok to cross with?


Based on the conversation I had with the CSBA agent this past week, it sounds like it would be iffy on even a UKPK because they might be able to flick the blade out. (They are looking ...

Good timing on this topic. My family and I are planning a trip to Banff in Alberta in the very near future and I was concerned about bringing a knife into Canada by car. I did some research online and even searched the CSBA’s website, but I couldn’t find a definitive set of rules regarding knives ...

Sorry to revive an old thread here, but I have a question:

My family and I are planning a family trip up to Banff in Alberta, Canada this summer and I wanted to check to see if there have been any changes with the Canadian knife laws before we cross the border? We will be traveling by car over the ...

Model: Spyderco CX11P Tim Wegner Mouse

As a long-time fan of Spyderco’s “Little-Big-Knives”, the Mouse has always been high on my list of all-time favorites. Despite its size, the Mouse is a stout and very capable little knife. I was recently holding ...

Just a couple of miles from where I lived in early childhood

Hahaha! I'm pretty sure I've seen that same guy around our town.

The CQC7 (Benchmade version) was one of the first knives to hit my radar when I was in middle school. I was immediately smitten and knew I’d have to get one some day. Many years later, I got the “real thing” when my wife gifted me an Emerson CQC7W. I like most everything about it, except the pocket ...

I love the Bolster too. Also, the maroon linen micarta. Very classy design.

I say save the CF bolster for the Brigadoon model!

Hey thanks, Jeff! I like bolsters too, especially in Ti because it helps reduce weight in the pocket. And Micarta... It's one of my favorite materials to be sure!

Forum member "Spydernut" - more importantly "also" knife maker and designer of the Rhinos - was so kind to discuss (with me and others) a lot of details about the design earlier in this thread.

For those who might not want to read across the whole thread and long, previous posts (see here https ...

A pic of the Grande from Mr. Rheinhold's site. Great looking blade but if Spyderco does the grande, I hope they do away with the bolster and use a solid CF/Laminte for the scales.

Thanks for the bump, Marc. The Grande was a fun project for sure. I hope to make a few more, if time allows. On a side note, that Chinook is an incredible knife. I've always loved that design. I kick myself now for not acquiring one back when they were still plentiful.

Reading through this thread gives me the same feeling as Christmas Eve... :)

Hope you all have a great time at the Meet!

Happy birthday Connor!

Happy Birthday! Hope all is well!

In Simon & Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson,” I always thought the line was “rotten sons a bear” instead of the true lyric, “the Robinson’s affair.”
