Mobile version notifications contrast please

A lot of my forum visits are just checking notifications, but the new forum format has almost no contrast in the notifications drop-down. I use iOS most often, so I am forced to stay on mobile version, and I can’t find a forum setting to change this. May we have some contrast? Thanks! 6042602A-37A8-...

I've already got a list going of changes. No sharpening notch is one of them. Serrations on about a third, screw construction, if possible, jimping on the ramp and p the quality.

Re: Calypso Jr Sprint Run Considerations

I initially leaned towards ZDP, but I think making it a quasi-Salt with Magnacut would be excellent with the fish scale pattern. Regardless of the steel type, I strongly oppose the sharpening notch. A sharpening notch should not be forced on those who don’t want one. A nice benefit is that this woul...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

https://youtu.be/e5tV_tFbm9s?si=PUYdj4zaZDE4tjlA Mine is about like this, but weirdly cuts 20# copy paper oddly well. I think that the edge was rounded and over-polished, which reduced the edge aggression to zero while still allowing the parting of fibrous materials. It doesn’t bite into my skin, b...

I was surprised to see only 197 available when I started my checkout process 6 minutes ago. I thought the price tag would have slowed sales way more.

Re: Show your Bugs and Critters

I found this copperhead just outside of my garage door last night. I like most snakes but have kids, so I took it to a local “wildlife management area” instead of killing it.

Re: Am I the only person who likes to age his Spydercos?

I didn’t intend to modify my blue P.I.T.S., but after the first obnoxiously noticeable scratch on the soft anodizing, I took some stropping compound to it to blend the blemish. I ended with a nice worn-in full denim color. B97637A5-DEF1-4B31-88CB-246FECA6CF8D.jpeg 46E3782B-DA98-4BB6-833A-415915D31D9...
