Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
I might take up Tae Chi myself. I was going to do it here but never got around to it. I will do it.

I did not think much about muscle cars or sports cars until I read a few generic magazines related to cars. Then I picked up the muscle and sports car magazines, and they had technical break-downs of the engines.

I've been buying / collecting both plain edge and serrated edge Spyderco Native Chiefs.
I think SE are fine, but as usual I'm a steel snob and like MagnaCut or CruWear for SE, even K390 is fine.
