Re: First Mule Handle - Some tips and issues I had

Impressive! You’ve got me thinking about trying it. Where did you get the Corby bolts? What size? Where did you get the G10 liners?

I have a piece of Walnut that should be good practice for a first try.

Re: Para 3 Cruwear in stock..

Also disappointed to get a cancelation email from KC today on the Para 3 Cru Wear. I'll remember and consider other options in the future.

I've just recently discovered Spyderco. Any recommendations from others with more experience looking for future Paramilitary 2 and Para 3 sprints?
