Re: How do you justify your next Spydie purchase?

I don’t buy clothes any more but we live in an affluent part of Sydney and there are many quality garments hanging on nearby clo...

Re: Para 3 and CQI

Love the size compared to the 2, Don't know why the clip is a issue for people when you can move it to the other end and have no lanyard hole in the way. It's asking to change something that already has a solution. (Several as its 4 way carry) Don't get me started on lanyards on folders..............

Re: Unusual But Excellent Camping Knife?

Do it, as there is no one survival knife to rule them all.

So many threads on all the forums over the years trying to find the best survival knife.
Worked out years ago it's 3 knives/items, 1) solid fixed blade 2) axe 3) Delica

Re: Have you ever passed on the chance to buy a grail?

Did for years on a custom knife ( Burt Foster ) now I have one I am even more annoyed I missed it years ago.
