Re: How does your Significant Other coexist with your knife collecting syndrome?
Definitely a #5! She understands and enjoys knives of her own. She has a full set of Wusthof kitchen knives, Chris Reeve kitchen knives, several high dollar autos, and of course all of the pink Spydercos we can find. Her knife collection doesn't begin to touch mine but, my jewelry doesn't begin to t...

Re: How long have you been carrying knives, and how have your needs changed?
Close to sixty years! I got my first Boy Scout knife at 5 or 6 and still have it. After college it was usually a Case Trapper. 20 years ago I became interested in automatics and down the rabbit hole I went. Got lucky on that one when my favorite maker retired, value of his knives increased three and...

Re: Collection Limiting Rules
My #1 rule is to be sure I am home to intercept any kind of knife package. I got real lucky about 15 years ago and started collecting production and custom autos from a maker I liked. Probably have 150 locked up. When he retired the price of his knives tripled and quadrupled (even a blind hog finds ...

Re: Para3 LW in m390.. First LW exclusive
Received mine today! Another safe queen. Why?? Its a great user!! Lightweight, great steel...such a waste to just sit around in a safe or stand. Sal has a quote somewhere regarding keeping a knife in its box, is wasting his hardwork or something along those lines. I couldn't agree more. It's not li...

Re: Are you a collector?
For those that cannot live on bread alone... there is collecting!!! Can't believe I am one of two that selected - "I collect knives mostly as collector items". I think there would be more that collect many and use some... CG Collector here also. Various brands, majority are custom. Users ...

I got an order in for two from BladeHQ around 4PM CST. Went back to look at it 15 minutes later and it was sold out. Got my fingers crossed at this point.

Re: How can we get more women interested in Spyderco knives?
I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. My wife is a country girl from Tennessee so growing up she was around guns and knives all the time. When she saw one of my Spydercos she said where's mine? She keeps a yellow H1 Ladybug in here purse and an orange Dragonfly in her truck. Our twin girls both had ple...

Well, if you can appreciate H&K it's just a matter of little time until you step up to the Golden, Co., Spydercos. The USP is a fine a firearm ever made!

Re: paramilitary 2 left handed
I am a lefty and thought I would comment. We live in a right handed world so us lefties have learned to be flexible. I have a lefty PM2 and several of the normal ones. I don't find either one to be a problem. They are both easy to use. That being said a right handed person could have trouble with a ...
