Re: Which three Spyderco knives for a new user?

I can say that I am happy with my 3 first knives, despite the fact that none of them was featured here. This is a new user's opinion, never owned a knife before.

Re: Raiding the fakers

So this won't happen. Just a follow up, the knife was awful and I just tossed it for recycling and canceled the payment.

Raiding the fakers
