Daywalker- Aloha! you know....maybe God made this happen to me with the Meerkat so it would give you a new idea???? FB???? Hmmmmm they say HE works in mysterious ways, but this one would just be hilarious! Kali <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> "Irish Bloo...

ARRGH- it's almost 8AM and since my Meerkat is by the PC I thought I'd give it another shot. uh oh. nothing. zip. zlich. Now, ( the neophyte says, nervously ) I'm supposed to do all of this blade handle squeezing and pushing/snapping of fingers motion magically flicking the blade towards me and have...

Daywalker- my hero! Aloha! I now see what you mean about the Karambit- OOOOH MY that thing is like a Machete- no wonder they gave me the MeerKat! Well, at least I'm not the only one out there who couldn't figure it out. and your're working with pros! Still haven't gotten her closed for the night. Th...

OKAY, you guys are going to have a real laugh over this but this has mystified me for more than an hour...help...I got the Meerkat OPEN, now, HOW the heck do I close her without losing all of my fingers? Laugh heartily later, HELP NOW!!!! KALI <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=...

Allen, I would have to say: My Dodo & my Ladybug (since it's always on my keyring). I LOVE MY DODO <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> I received my Karambit ( with a Meerkat) yesterday and MAN, Daywalker, you were RIGHT- that thing is HUGE!!!!! It feels like...

Dailex- Thank you so much for your email- I confess I did wonder where you'd gone off to. I'm sorry about the crashing of your PC ( good ol' modern technology, eh'? ) Please take care and someday when I arrive in Romania. ( It COULD happen, who knows ) Kali "Irish Blood, English Heart, This Is ...

Well, sorry to ruin it, but the only two good jokes I know are not very clean <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> so therefore, to keep my rep as a lady, I will not reveal them <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>Kali "Iri...

Well, this is THE LAST ( for now, LMAO- a woman can always change her mind, as you all know ) I purchased the Karambit. A beautiful knife. The first one I'll own that doesn't have a serrated edge. This is damned addicting!!!! Kali <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border...

What can I say, that is an amazing collection. But I think three knives in one week are enough for this girl. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Have a great evening <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Kali "Irish Blood,...

Thank you, everyone. I did purchase a Dodo. (blue) But I still love the aesthetics of the Karambit ( what IS a Karambit?) Wow, I really chose an expensive habit (which is not unlike me <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Thank you all for your advice, and god hel...

Daywalker/Chad- I think that is so admirable that you've designed a prototype!! Certainly I will send out some prayers your way! I am positive God wants you to succeed in your venture! I'll say it again- this is the MOST friendly forum I have ever been exposed to on the Net!!! Everyone seems so sinc...

CDF- I am seriously thinking about purchasing a Dodo- you're right, they do look more Sheeple friendly and if it can ais me in a self defence situation, that would be most helpful. But what about the S.P.O.T? Thanks! "Irish Blood, English Heart, This Is What I'm Made Of, There Is No One On Eart...

Daywalker- investing in a Sharpmaker is probably a good idea. I've been devouring "The Spyderco Story"- it's SO good-and I keep looking at the brochure I received with my Harpy and Ladybug- ahh that Karambit looks soooo fine. I know some people are not that fond of it, but aesthetically (s...

Okay, this is what I need to know, since everyone here is so wise here! For self protecion, should I purchase a Karambit OR the DODO. Cast your ballots! I wish everyone here a very good day/night and I thank you SO much for your helpfull comments <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 ali...

Ken- that would be fun to go to! My parents live above Orange Glen Elementary, and I live in North Park. (not the BEST neighborhood in the world. I've seen more prosties than I have ever seen in my life! Plus it's dangerous out here. Hence, the Harpy. LMAO I showed it to a friend of my former boyfri...

MaNcEr- Thanks for the important information. Yes, I confess I purchased the Harpy because I was influenced by the character in the Thomas Harris books, Hannibal Lecter. He uses one, and it looked pretty effective to me! But I also wanted it for the clean purity of it, the look. Probably the next kn...

CDF- Thanks for the advice! I will definitely check out the Dodo! ( and I thought *books* were going to be my downfall!) I love the Karambit as well. I can't help holding it,(my Harpy) it's "almost" like falling in love! There are too many Sheeples everywhere, especially where I live. Unfo...

AHA! As of 11:OO AM I received my precious Harpy & The Spyderco Story! Plus they gave me a tiny knife as a gift! This knife is so beautiful! (my Harpy) and I cannot wait to read this book!!!! HURRAH!!! Chris, thanks so much for your info- but I am pretty sure if I went down to TJ with my Harpy I...

Oh! I had a most important question! Does one need a license to carry one of these on their person? ( in the wake of 9-11 )? I mean, if an airline can freak out over a mere box cutter, they'd have an seizure over seeing any of these beauties! I sometimes go to Tijuana, and I don't think I'll be brin...

Shards- thank you for your recommendations- I will definitely check the S.P.O.T. out and the others you had mentioned. The keychain one seems ideal- the neighborhood in which I unfortunately live, is right in the middle of gangland and I have to go into the alley to take out my trash- yes, there ARE...
