Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

https://i.imgur.com/eUgPA06.jpg I did exactly the same thing recently. How do you like it? I bought the FRN UKPK in 2017. It was fine, but as soon as I got my hands on the HH G10 version, there was no going back. I generally prefer G10 over FRN or FRCP. Had the Ti scales for a bit, and finally deci...

Only minutes ago I was over at the mountain bike forum. A couple guys over there are complaining about the high prices. Think about how bad it must be for people who play with both knives AND mountain bikes!

Ouch! That hit little too close to home.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

... ... ... Yeah, bad one. Completely forgot it was in the bag. I am one who usually gets to the airport early. Relax, have some food, beer, people watch. Normally I would have time to take it back to the car. There was no time today. That REX 121 looks good. This one for next few days. https://i.i...

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

Not in my pocket, but was temporarily in my carryon at the airport.

One, I’m an id10t. Two, what will the next exclusive Sage 5 be, because I need a replacement.

Re: Help with a Caly 3/UKPK...

More so, when comparing the Caly 3 to the G10 UKPK, the differences are very subtle. I would expect there to be a bigger difference based on the shape of the finger choil, but there really isn't. Not in my hands. Same with the blade stock. Took them both to an apple and some cardboard. I would have ...

Re: Manix Modifications. What have you done? What do you want to do?

I am planning on doing a blade swap and scale dye. 4V DLC blade from a recent SNK Manix LW (missed out on the G10 version) into dyed gray BHQ G10 scales :crossed-fingers So kind of like this, good choice! https://i.postimg.cc/NFDqc72c/20231230-112856.jpg It will be more like a transparent charcoal,...

Re: If laws and public perception were no issue, would you carry a different knife?

I suppose that laws and persceptions have shaped my knife using habbits into what they are today. But at this point, I don't even think about it.

Perhaps the only time would be travel.

Re: Native 5 Lightweight - Lube pivot or not?

Surprisingly, I haven't had the need to. As mentioned, just on the lockbar interface, to make the opening smoother. I feel like I use my REX 45 Native 5 LW as salt series knife. Carried IWB during exercise, occasional dip in a river or lake, scrape mud off of bike tires when there are no sticks to b...

Re: What’s your favourite exclusive for future models?

K390, ranger green, G10, Golden models. Native, Shaman, Military, UKPK, Manix; I'm not picky.

Probably not going to happen, but that would do it for me.
