Spyderco Forums

Been quite a while since I posted over here on the Spyderco Forum. Must say that I'm glad to see this new format in place. Kudo's to Spyderco for making the change!! :D :D :D Yes, I am an addict. My drug of choice is Strider Knives. The sad part is that it has only taken 1 week for me to become addi...

Pick me one also Yog because I've never noticed a smell and I've used it for a few years! Guess I'll be going home tonight and sniffing soime Tuff-Glide. Can't wait for that Tuff-Glide buzz to kick in! Art Sigmon "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Php. 4:13 "For ...

Here is my heavy duty folder. It is a J.W. Smith LDC-5 that I sent back to John to have the clip moved up to the top of the bolster, and to have a stainless backspacer added. What started out as a 6 ounce heavy duty folder has now ended up as an 8 to 9 ounce even heavier duty folder. The best part i...

Got a J.W. Smith Scimitar in my right front pocket, a Buck Prince in my left front pocket, and a Cuda MAXX in my right vest pocket........and you can't even tell it. Hey Cool, my Obenauf large model 2 framelock will be back in my pocket tonight! Mine was a special order from Mike and I got a "X...

This may be after the fact but I picked up some Stair-Tread tape from my local Ace Hardware. This is a 3M product and comes in a medium gray color so it nicely contrasts with the stainless steel. I put mine on a custom Obernauf framelock I have and so far it has done a super job. It is a preformed r...

I'm not posting this to get a pat on the back but I just gave up the "perfect" Chinook I got a couple of weeks ago along with a large Buck/Strider spearpoint. I happen to read a post from a fellow I know and in it he made reference to needing to find a couple of decent folders for some fol...

Thanks Allen. I have done just that!

Okay, I've just seen the pics of the Chinook II and the Doh-Doh (sp) and even though I am a custom folder kinda fellow I WANT these two for sure! Where can I place my order for these? Thanks, Art Sigmon Art Sigmon "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Php. 4:13 "For...

single or double liners?

The Ice Storm of the century is what hit. Over 2,000,000 people without power in the Carolina's! I live in N.C. in the southern foothills and we lost power Wednesday until today at 10:30 AM. We were lucky though as we had a wood stove for heat and camping equip. for cooking. Water didn't go off and ...

Ron, would your dealer happen to be Ace Hardware in Sparkle City? Was ther yesterday and saw a case full of these. Seems like they were marked at $29.00 though.......

Monkey-mange ALL over. Right and left forearms, chest, belly, lower legs. I mean all over. Sold a knife to a guy a while back and he informed me the other day as I was sharpening it for him that the last time I sharpened it he went home and shaved his balls. So I guess he had monkey mange balls! Don...

The Dremel tool is the greatest invention since white bread! I use it more than any tool I have. Polishing is a breeze with it. I polish screws, pivots, liners, and blades. All my knives pretty much open as smooth as butter due to the Dremel.

Try a can of disc brake cleaning spray! This stuff will not only dissolve, but also blast out grit and it evaporates in seconds. Will not harm the steel or the G-10. Follow up with some Tuf-Glide and you will be in bidnizz! Art Sigmon "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."...

Yeah I went to one over in Hickory N.C. and came away with a CRK Nkokna, #13/20 prototype! This is my first custom fixed blade in a long, long time. Been into those custom folders for too long! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

I just picked up a carbon fiber Civilian with plain edge from Larry B. at Bladeart.com They have some of the Sastre neck sheaths to fit a veriety of Spydies at a reasonable cost. I got one for the Civilian but haven't had a real oppurtunity to wear it yet. Art Sigmon "I can do all things throug...

Just picked one of these up Saturday. Had been looking at them for a couple of months but wanted a ti frame with the plain edge. Finally got one in at the knife shop and now it is in my pocket, sans clip. It rides in my left front as my do-everything folder from cutting string, tape, cardboard, and ...

Yeah the tip is fragile. I will carry it in the back pocket and alternate it with my DKW Sand Shark. These knives only get carried when I go to work at my part time job at Wal-Mart. I work in the Sporting Goods and have several knife knuts come by to compare knives. It will be fun to pull out the Ci...
