If you are going exclusively with Spyderco, then the Bushcraft. You may want to bring a hatchet or small forest axe with you as well if you are making shelter or plan on processing a lot of wood. If you want only knives, you probably will have to get a big chopper, and a smaller knife. In this case ...

There will always be some flex in the system and thus never be able to truly achieve a V bevel geometry. The less the downward pressure while sharpening the closer to perfect V the geometry will be. Another variable is the dishing of the stones used to sharpen. All synthetics dish, the lower grits a...

Comparing grits between different type materials seems to be a bit difficult. Especially with ceramic which Spyderco doesn't even apply a grit or micron rating. Med., fine, UF are the designations they use. So a while back I used DMT, Shapton glass and Spyderco stones and compared the scratch patte...

really? never thought about that as a potential problem. I've been buying tons of stuff off ebay forever, never run into that with anything. How can I tell if they are fake, any pointers? The person I bought from had 100% feedback with over 85 transactions, all different stuff. Would someone really...

From what I've seen on several forums, there is a time limit for how long you can change the title of a thread you create. Most of the time it is set to a few days. I think I tried to do it he...
