A Halloween Tale

In the naval battle of Port Ocai the ship called the Saracen was sunk. One of the sailors, I’ll call him Pecard, even if I’m not sure of his name, saved himself by hanging on to a piece of wreckage. As the battle went on like a game of chess for many days, both fleets circling and trying to gain an ...

As you rightly say, judges and policeman are quite happy to explain it ;) But my question was meant in a more general way not specifically weapons. For example pogroms in nazi Germany - where do we draw the line on wrong laws, at what point do we react, when do we stop being frightened of beng punis...

I can legally own and carry an auto, a balisong, a pistol. However, the question I would pose is: should stupid laws be respected? In today's world it is much easier to pass a stupid law than to repeal it. And who is qualified to judge which laws deserve to be respected (except me of course ;) )?

Spyderco Szabofly data wanted

I just bought a Sazbofly. Wowie!

Does anyone have any production data? I understand that the first were in VG10, then 440C I think, mine is marked 154CM. How many were made and are they likely to go back in production after the previous Spyderco butterfly knife problems? Thanks.

The Strider PT is a great knife but a baby compared to it's big brothers or the ER RAO or MPC, or even the MoD Hornet for that matter.

I'm a big fan of the original Hornet and all the original MoD line. I may be an elitist but I can't help but feel that this is an attempt by Blackhawk to cash in on the name and recoup some of the the purchase cost of MoD.

SE or PE, which is best for girlfriend.

I already have my answer to the question - serrated. I'll probably get flamed for this but WTH. I believe one should never lend tools, especially to a woman. Women seem incapable of understanding how a tool should be used - knives in particular. I used to have an assistant who was proud of the fact ...

On the shorter twisty tracks the tuned older Porsches still do well, but the newer ones dominate whenever top speeds are higher. The 912s, older 911s and 914s lack power to stay with the big boys even when fully kitted out. I'd love a 993 Turbo S or a GT2, but I'd have to sell the house to get one ...

I apologise for the quality but it's the best this bad photographer could do with a camera phone.
Two of my spyderkeys came in boxes with logo and spyderkey text.

This is a limited edition Boker (999 pieces) and made with spydie hole with the consent of Spyderco.

I have a William Henry B10 with a ZDP189 blade. Rockwell hardness of 67! It's the sharpest factory edge I have ever seen.

I hope a poliwog is made in it for my edc, that would be superb :D
