OK, to reply to a few of you, in order of the original comments: @phillipsted My most used knife is the Foliage Green Urban: lightweight, compact and legal where I'm located, alternatively I carry a UK Penknife, a Squeak or a Victorinox Cadet. I also have a Leatherman Juice with me, but it doesn't g...

Is there an excellent Spyderco knife?
Howdy folks, I've just received today Spyderco number 50 in my collection, and decided to look over all of them. And I got surprised: none would make it in my top 10 of knives. It seems that spydies are some of my most used and greatest knives, but if I want to show a friend an excellent knife they ...

Nietzsche is probably my favorite: always pushing the boundaries of what humans are and could be. Second I guess all the Enlightenment guys (Voltaire, Rousseau, Locke, etc.) for inspiring the American and French Revolutions. Third place would go to libertarians/mutualists/anarchists like Proudhon or...

BTW, it seems now even legal to have a small knife for air travel, but still no liquids. On a recent trip, going through Düsseldorfs airport my father didn't want to check in his luggage: they took away his shampoo bottle but the small SAK he forgot in his bag was fine (they gave it back to him afte...

You would also be fine in Germany with a fixed blade. The rules for Germany are: - no automatic, balisong, gravity knife - no knife being both one hand opening and locking - no knife longer than 12cm - if you have a valid reason you can go bigger: e.g. you go hunting. For France, it's a bit more com...

I have a lot of black handled knives but that's because there is usually no choice, my personal preference go to natural colors (greens, browns, some grays) or blueish (i.e. like the fluted millies). On the other hand, I tend to carry knives with bright colored handles as they are less problematic f...

Should it make a difference? A well conceived auto knife uses a spring that will stay within its elastic limit, open or close. So the strength of the spring won't be affected by storing it open or close. For the same reason, you can store a magazine empty or full, it should not make a difference, at...
