Re: It's About Time For: A Full SE Catcherman

JD said full SE …

My Catcherman only arrived today, so will see how it goes in CE before commenting further. Very impressed out of the box, though.

Re: Review: Murray Carter Minarai Petty

Good review. Thank you for sharing.

Most of my kitchen knives appear to be ffg, apart from a single sided Global deba, and I’ve not noticed a problem to date with food binding. I’m certainly not a chef or expert on kitchen knives, but aren’t most kitchen knives ffg? Asking for a friend, ahem…

The world seems a very dangerous place again, for sure. The success of any part of that axis will embolden the others.

Re: The Days of the Milkman May Be Numbered!

Milk in paper cartons is better. However, I buy Fernleaf powdered milk. It tastes just like bottled milk and dissolves in cold water. It is a New Zealand product. I understand that the same brand in the UK isn't nearly as good because UK laws mandate using only UK cow milk. The NZ cow milk is much ...

Re: Catcherman LC200N Sprint Run

I was sooooo sad!!! I have wanted this knife FOREVER, but this was discontinued before my time here. When I saw the announcement several months ago I was overjoyed. But….I did what I always do and procrastinated until the last minute. By the time I acted they were all gone. Then I found one! Haha. ...

So you’re basically wanting a DLC version of the Heinnie Haynes exclusives?
The 4v is the draw for me.

Re: Building a Custom Knife for Sal: CPM S60V

Fantastic thread. Craftsmanship, science and innovation in one. Add to that the redemption of an old villain (s60v, not Sal) and it’s a real treat.

Re: Visualizing the Tradeoff of Higher Hardness

I didn’t enjoy sharpening the s60v in my Starmate one little bit. It would be very interesting to see what effect an updated HT would have.

Re: Native Scout?

I think a mid sized Native is a fantastic idea.

With (or without, actually) a sabre or scandi grind it would be an excellent bushcraft or all-purpose field knife.

Interesting idea …

I would rather have a Native 5 slip joint, but only because I find the Para 3 a little cramped in hand.

Re: "Putting" "words" "in" "quotation" "marks"

Although I try to punctuate correctly, I’m more interested in other people’s views than their grammar - up until the point where it affects my understanding of what they are trying to say.

PS. I’m not entirely convinced about Joe’s idea of shooting the slightly illiterate.

Re: Knife that screams liner lock got the compression lock - why?

Yes - I found this obtrusive on the Wolfspyder. I didn’t mind the slow deployment but the ergonomics just didn’t chime. And I tried twice, a couple of years apart.
