I have my finger's crossed... Aw man, that really stinks! Good news bad news on mine. Good news - arrived today! Bad news -...

USPS tracking now shows it "Out for Delivery." Hmmm, suddenly not feeling well, think I'm going to have to go home early today ;) . Then again, the way this delivery has gone, I won't be at all surprised to find my SB Dragonfly has landed at S.O.D.'s house (Some Other Dude).

Really frustrating!

Well, I posted here last Saturday that I had managed to score one of the SB Dragonflys from NK. Immediately received shipping notice that delivery was expected for Tuesday, May 6 - happy, happy, happy. Well, here I sit, still waiting, and my new knife is still 50 miles away! 484 miles from store to ...

Agree with Blake on this one. Sooner or later, you're going to have to have both of them. Grab the sprint run while you can.

To sharpen or not to sharpen?

When you get a new knife, do you use it until the factory edge dulls before sharpening or do you immediately put your own edge on it? Since being bitten by the Spyder, I've been extremely impressed with edges that come from the factory. The Dragonfly in ZDP that I just purchased is hair-whittling sh...

Beautiful acquisition MacLaren! The Caly 3.5 is one of my absolute favorites. It just seems to mold to the hand. Enjoy.

New guy introduction

Hello everyone. After about a year of lurking and being a registered member since January, I thought it was time to introduce myself and share my story. I've collected knives for about as long as I can remember - mostly traditional slippies. I've accumulated about 60 or so Case knives, another dozen...
