Spyderco Forums

Hi all! Haven't been posting lately, but I thought you oldies (even the newbies, maybe) might enjoy this. I neglected to shave over the Memorial Day weekend and I wore the stubble into work on Tuesday. Naturally a (not so) witty wiseguy said something like; "What happened, lose your razor? I'll...

Calypso Jr's. cut the cheese! Also, the meat, veggies and fruit! I have several unused black ones I'm saving, plus two each serrated and plain edge users which are my favorite EDC's, regardless of maker or price (and I've tried a lot!). I guess I'll have to order a couple grays to round out my colle...

Been a while since I posted here. I've been exploring other options for a while. I,ve purchased an Emerson, three of those knives with the butterfly and even one of those real costly ones with the titanium scales in the last year or so. Liked em all except one of the butterfly ones was too huge and ...

Glowrings are cool. Bagheera is beyond cool. The internets #1 class act for sure.

The dear, departed, and sorely missed Calypso Jr., PE, FRN. Best EDC ever made!

Um,,,Mini's are not babe magnets, they are the quinessential chicks car. If you are a chick, get a Mini. Otherwise, the Civic EX is what you need.

Yuck yuck! Sorta sexist and questionable taste though. If I were female I might take offense.

I think you better read the fine print on that Militec Vox. I recently came across a potion called Nut Sauce. Its made to lube guitar tuning nuts. It contains graphite suspended in a low to mid weight teflon grease. A very small bit, worked in with the heat of a hair dryer, works wonders on folders.

Dangerous places seem adventurous and alluring to a certain type of person. I was one of them once. Then after you go to a few and see trouble and death it doesn't seem so inviting any more. Just scary and awful.

Deleted, double post.

Excuses. Say what you plan to do. Do what you say.

We NEED Pics!!! And some SPECS would resonate also. We DESERVE these things. We have been SO patient. I can't STAND it anymore!

Holy crap! Buy it and I'll buy it from you! Calypso Jr. PE's are the Holy Grail of EDC!!!

The knives I keep in my pyramid come out sharper than when I put them in, the hole heals over, and they open themselves when I just think about using them!!! On a serious note, a little strop action brought things back nicely. I,m going to have to start using a Tuff-Cloth on my blades before I put t...

When I put my Delica away last March or April it was very shaving sharp. Nearly, but not quite hair popping sharp. Today I got it out and it wasn't even close to shaving sharp. I hypothesize oxidation of the very edge where the relative surface area is high and the individual crystal elements of the...

"Dune" and its sequels are terrific! Dialex, I'll put Lustbader on my short list. There's a lot of readers here! And it seems we have surprisingly similar taste in books. Hmmm?!! Wonder what Freud would make of that?

Does anyone know the blade length and grind this most anticipated of all future Spydie's will sport?

"Shogun", "Tai-Pan", "Gai-Jin", "King Rat", and now I'm working on "Noble House". Clavell's Asian saga is a long, but gripping read. Like Michener, he wraps a great fictional yarn around a loose version of history so you actually learn something whil...

Klez is all over the knife and outdoor/survival type forums right now. I've been hit four times in three days. Some adolescents think its funny, mainly because it upsets so many people. Just keep your virus software up to date and don't worry about it. My ISP filters it out for me which is a nice ex...

CongRATulations to the winners! You lucky dogs!!!
