Re: Is GB2 3" dead?

I wish that they would make the steel liners flush with the scales in the newer version. My GB2 is quite uncomfortable when used for extended periods because of the protruding liners. And as a lefty also, the lockbar access could be much better but I have actually learned to use it quite well one-h...

Re: Straight Razor from Spyderco

Please carbon steel, Spanish notch, full hollow and with stabilizer. Really love the 5/8 or the 6/8. You should need a special machine with counter rotating wheel in order to make them. I'll be very curious if spy can beat my old vintage Puma. Straight razors seems to be a very simple tool to develo...

Michael walker in super blue. Clad in something a little harder than 420j2. Everything you need is already in Seki.
Oh that’s a good one. Count me in for that.
Couple for me please! I loved the old walker in ZDP.

Re: What's the lowest edge retention steel you'd carry?

I dont mind because I'm a sharpening guy. Anyway I like AUS8 as low edge retention but it takes a very sharp edge with minimal efforts.

It has a big content of chrome but it's not as stainless as foe example 440A.

Open the blade and let's drop inside a couple of drops of oil.
Have you use it for cutting fruits? Let the juice reach the inner of the knife?
Be aware that some oil could dirt the micarta

Re: Uk Penknife Maxamet?

I have the Para 3 in s110v. I bought the urban k390 because I wanted to try some exotic steels. I'd love a Para 3 in Cru-Wear and Maxamet but it will be quite some time before I could afford them, if ever. A less expensive platform like the UKPK in those steels would be AWESOME! I would snatch them...
