Re: Syderco Tenacious Custom Walnut Scales

Those walnut scales certainly are lookers but the FRN scales that you state: "sadly are junk and ruin your pockets and have a very cheap plastic feel" are superior to resisting damage from dings, drops, cracking, water, chemicals, and temperature. Tenacious is a value knife. If you want to...

Place the knife in a vegetable strainer and place it in the pan above the water so just the steam hits the knife and cover for a minute or two. Or just dip in a solution of 1 Tbs of bleach to 1 quart of ...

Re: Mule Team MT28P CPM SPY27 Revealed!

This is my first Mule, and I’m brainstorming what I want to do with the handle! I would like to make it out of wood sourced from Wisconsin, but all the details are what I need to figure out cause I’ve never made a handle before. I’m really looking forward to trying out Spydercos own steel though! P...

Re: H1 Revisited

My understanding is H1 cannot be heat treated so I assume it wouldn't be a candidate for laminating with a steel that needs to be heat treated. IIRC Sal mentioned one of the problems of choosing a steel for cladding is that it has to have similar heat treat properties to the steel it's being cladded...
