Re: The Show youre manixes thread.

Nice pictures guys :D JohnnyGeek where did you find that manix 2? :o I stumbled across it on ebay believe it or not. I'd have called it a good deal for just being a new condition 154CM saber grind alone...but when you figure in the ridiculously badass 1st Special Forces crest...I have to call it on...

Re: The Show youre manixes thread.

How's about a 1st Special Forces Manix 2 in 154CM?

Re: My Complete Auto lineup

I've got serrated Embassies in silver and grey - still searching for a black one. Nice collection there.

Re: Favorite semi-auto handgun platform? (poll)

Keep in mind with regard to open carry holsters in TX, the new law requires a shoulder or belt holster with positive retention device (thumb break, etc). I haven't decided if I'll do open or not - if I do, certainly not much - but either way, I'm going to have to get a new holster as mine are all OW...

Leather sheath makers??

Hey folks - being new to the Spydercommunity, I'm looking for some recommendations. I'd like to get a leather sheath made for my Embassy - something similar to the ones shown below. http://www.vessleatherworks.com/Spyderco%20G-Clip.JPG I've looked around, and no one (so far) lists the Embassy as one...

Re: My first two Spydies - a pair of Embassy autos...

I agree Evil - not that I don't appreciate that they're auto, but it'd be great to see the Embassy in a non-auto model. They're so pretty and perfectly made, I'd bet a non-"restricted" version would sell like gangbusters.

Quintuple crippling jealousy that the OP lives somewhere sensible that allows autos, managed to score 2 disco'd spydies.

Sorry ;)

My first two Spydies - a pair of Embassy autos...

I originally purchased two of these discontinued Embassy autos (the last two the retailer had) - thinking I'd keep one and sell one. Then when they arrived, one was grey and one was silver. I can't choose - so (obviously) I have to keep them both. :D http://www.johnnygeek.com/stuff/knives/IMG_0532.j...

Re: How did you fall down the Spyder hole?

I spotted a discontinued Spyderco Embassy auto on ebay (not sure how it got past the restricted item squad, but it did) and I thought it was one of the best looking knives I'd ever seen. I followed the auction but it went for a completely nutty $405. (and that was used) I started scouring, and I fou...

Just wanted to say hey - introduction type jazz. I'm new to Spyderco's - new to "real" knives in general in fact. (I've been carrying a beat up Gerber Gator for about 25 years...) In any case, I recently scored two NIB Spyderco Embassy autos - one in silver and one in grey. Safe to say I'v...
