The Shabaria was a collaboration with Eduard Bradichansky. Mr. Bradichansky was killed when the Palestinians bombed his village in Israel in 1999. Insamuch as he is no longer with us to approve these new variations you propose, I suggest that his Shabaria be left alone as a testament to the artistry...

You can't see the grain of steel without a microscope. What you're seeing there is just the marks left by the abrasives used to grind the blade.

Nice pictures!

Personally I don't think it's anyone's business except Spyderco (the company) what user name people choose on the forum, and they obviously hadn't precluded it from being used. I'm just surprised no one had tried registering it before.

What I'd really like to see is the old Rookie put back into production. I wouldn't hold your breath - Sal himself has said on this forum in the past: "Bringing back" an old model or version is often financial suicide. It was usually disco'd because of poor sales. It would also hurt the co...

For those that haven't been around the forums that long, antichristina is a known troll who Sal himself speculates might be a disgruntled former employee. The name was created specifically to bash Christina, the manager of the SFO at the time.

Well, there's the Stainless version of the ATR, or "At-The-Ready." $94.98 Buy-it-now on eBay, with $5.95 shipping... oh crap, you're 93 cents over ;) Well, you can win the bid for the starting price of $90.98 and be under budget! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6...

Actually in all fairness I guess I should say that UPS has improved quite a bit here lately; I don't know whether we just got a new driver on this route or what, but they've been pretty reliable for the last year or so.

I didn't even know that UPS was in Slovakia! Interesting!

USPS has been the only one that I've never had a problem with. UPS threw a package at the front door from 15 feet away, dented the door, and destroyed the contents ( I saw them do it) and FedEx ground "lost" a digital camera for two weeks. It's all a crapshoot.

Yeah, I was thinking "what rivals?" It's the original Photon Microlight... still probably the best in the coin-cell type LED lights.

[quote="4 s ter"]Zrexxer How does "Back-to-Black" work on blue or green G-10? ]Works great - despite it's name, it's a milky white liquid that helps restore whatever the original color of the surface was. Kind of like armorall etc but without the drawbacks like greasy feel, etc.
