Alox Bantam... ☝️ This is my dad's favourite knife over the last 2+ decades, because it fits inside his coin pocket. ;) Old skool pants used to have that hidden coin pocket inside/under the waistband.

Re: new coating coming!

My main criteria for a coating is durability, and DLC shines in this regard. If the new coatings are less durable than DLC, I'll probably steer clear.

Re: Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2024 Report

My concerns are this though: The Z-cut I owned broke through the centre of the Spydiehole… cutting a potato on a plastic cutting board! Although the stock is 0.2mm thicker on the Charisma, it’s hole is significantly bigger than the Z-cut. This area WILL be a point of weakness on this knife. I hones...

Re: The Magnacut Paramilitary 2

I agree, an uncoated stop pin makes complete sense to me for reliable and consistent lockup. No surface layer to wear off over time and change the lock tolerance. On some of my other PM2’s I’ve seen occasional light stop pin corrosion over the years. I’ve seen similar reports from other people too. ...

Re: The Magnacut Paramilitary 2

I"m not so sure about the extra grip on the black one @Wallach. Looking at stock photos, the yellow version has the same peel ply texture on the flats, so I'd say it is likely they'll feel the same in the hand. The yellow/black appears smooth in this video?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9j...

Re: K390 vs S110V - Some Observations

I prefer K390 for work knives because I like how it sharpens and deburrs. It holds a front-end sharpness noticeably longer than S110V in my experience. It is also a few points harder than S110V, which gives it more strength and better edge stability. S110V’s corrosion resistance works exceptionally ...

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???

Not really in my pocket, but I have a Vic OG Executive in my office desk drawer that is kept there purely for grooming emergencies. Today it was called into action for some minor surgery when my hand was starting to hurt and I noticed a splinter in my palm that's probably been sitting there since p...
