Ok to buy from Temu but don’t download the app (read a bit into it a while back) Plenty on google about it. https://time.com/6243738/temu-app-complaints/ Have bought a few things over time with a 50-50 of things being good or rubbish quality. Also a 50-50 chance of the thing ordered being the same a...

Yes, I'd carry any of my 3-4 inch folders in public that I now carry at home. In my part of Aus it is not lawful to carry any folder (not even a tiny Vic Classic) unless "for a good and specific reason". "General utility" is not a good reason. :eye-roll Come up to Northern Austr...

When you have Bar Keepers as a friend, it doesn’t matter what steel you use…..


The steel that is blowing me away lately is not Magnacut it’s SPY27 and I live in tropical Northern Australia where I have to cut through the humidity to get out the front door this time of the year.

I’m a fixed blade, if I’m hiking or backpacking. One of many Mules I have put a handle on or even a junction. Have plenty of smaller fixed blades that are the size of a folder and even lighter skeleton blades. https://files.catbox.moe/4fdds0.jpeg I LIKE that knife. I like skeleton handles too. What...

John invited his mother over for dinner one evening. During the meal, she couldn’t help but notice how attractive his roommate Judy was. She had been suspicious of a relationship between her son and his roommate for quite some time, but this only made her more curious. She watched the two of them in...

Nice collection

As a Ex-butcher. That still has all my dads stuff and mine. 1) steels are all good as SAL explained above. 2) You should use straight dishwashing liquid withe the stones for best effect. Rinse with water after 3) If the stones are old like my dad’s, they are good stones and worth keeping. If they ha...

1095 and 15n20 steel make a mighty fine Damascus

362x …AEB-L mules
and
264x …K294 mules

So plenty

How do you figure out how many are remaining and thanks for the information.

You just go to checkout and try to buy 1000 of them and they say only 362 left

Have the GB1 but would pick the GB2 in M4 of the two. The old M4 is hard to sharpen myth still gets banged around, but compared to several newer steels it’s a breeze. M4 wins on edge retention over Cruwear. But either steels is a winner in a GB2 it’s is basically what you prefer. Zwear GB2 would tak...

Got my $250 box, not the Shaman I was crossing my fingers for but very happy. The cheap Uptern is surprisingly a neat little knife. The Manix will be an immediate user to test SPY27. The PM3 I am not sure what I will do with, already have two PM3s and it seems almost too nice to use. Thanks for the...

Pretty much you can search google and get a YouTube video and pictures on any 2 or 3 models.

Police v Endura etc…

Last time I wanted a quick reference for two models there was 10+ videos on the topic, some 17 minutes long

Spyderco makes a lot more knives I don't like than knives I do like, so buying a mystery box was never even a consideration for me. I do think it was a bit misleading on Spyderco's part to say the $400 boxes would contain a premium knife when the majority of the $400 boxes I've seen posted do not c...

All I want for Christmas/The Holidays is a drop date. Maybe December 17th? It’s my birthday

Usually announced on a Tuesday with a 14 day notice to the drop….So looking like end of January now.

Just my thoughts.

Bet the lucky punter that gets the $400 box for $250 doesn’t complain

Go through long stages with a knife, could be a year or more.

Current Native 5 Maxamet - though using a Salt 1 last few weeks due to wet season here.
Previously Delica 4 in green
Previous to that, Para 3

Think people are expecting Mystery boxes to be magical boxes.

Basically $400 worth of seconds knives.
