I love my Izula so much that I bought one for each of my boys. One is two and other is seven months old. Of course it will be a while till they get them. My work EDC is an Izula with a delica 4. The delica is perfect for fine work and the Izula for everything else. Esee makes great fixed blades and ...

My first spyderco was an endura, I lost it on a mountain bike trail years ago. My latest is a yojimbo 2, I think it is beautifully designed knife and I am amazed at how it fits my hand like a custom piece. I am constantly surprised at how often I take out my delica 4 which is my work edc. Thanks for...

She has her shoes, I have my knives, as long as the bills are paid at the end of the month, we are good... Every once in a while she gets a pink knife and that seems to keep her happy.

I hear you about the coatings. If you are interested, stop by the Esee forums, there are a number of guys who have stripped and put a patina on their ESEEs.

Massapequa huh? My sister in law lives there. They got it pretty bad on the south shore from Sandy. Hope her family did ok. She went to Suffolk in fall of 2009, then GENESO (I think that's spelled right) for spring semester 2010. She came down here in the summer of 2010. She lived in Masapequa moved...

Esee. This. 1095 is easy to sharpen and holds a great edge. They are built tough as nails and carry an unconditional warranty. I EDC an izula (with a delica 4) at work, a Laser Strike is my camp knife and an Esee 4 is in my GHB (get home bag). Outside of work it is either a PM2, Yo2, or GB with the...

That's funny, small world. I grew up in Brooklyn, then moved to North Babylon (south shore) and now I live in Rocky Point (north shore). How long has she been off the Island?

Thanks for the info... Cool looking knife. Yes, it is from "Secondhand Lions", one of my favorite movies and one of my favorite quotes. It is not a direct quote because some of the forums I am on limit signature characters, so I edited a little. Here is the actual quote [quote="Hub Mc...

What knife is the one with the wire clip? Do you have a pic showing the blade? Looks like an interesting shape.

If you must have a knife on you i would suggest Deep pocket carry. An exposed clip will give PD reason to notice you. I would also echo not bringing any knife you wouldn't mind having taken from you. Fwiw when I go to the city I don't carry a knife, I have an impact kerambit. It is nonmetallic so if...
