Re: Vote: Kick? Choil? Forward? Other?

Depends on the design for me.. obviously, a choil works best on smaller knives.. and I do really like various knives featuring each of the choices.. but generally..if you put a gun to my head and told me to pick one.. I most prefer handle forward designs, be they from Spyderco or other makers..

Re: RIP - Toby Keith

I'm not a huge country guy, but I used to go to his concerts with a group of friends who were really into him. I went to 4-5 shows between maybe 2008 and 2015.. that man was an entertainer, it can't be denied.. fan of country music or not, his concerts were always a good time! The tailgating environ...

Re: Masters of the Air

AppleTV went about a year without putting out any content that I was even remotely interested in, so I cancelled the service.. sure enough, now this show comes out and actually looks really good! Hah, I may have to wait until all the episodes are out and fire up the AppleTV again for a month to watc...

Re: How many Spyderco Knives did you buy in 2023?

Had to check my spreadsheet.. 7 Spydercos in 2023. More than I would have guessed without looking, but significantly fewer than in years past.. I think the biggest reason for the decrease in 2023 is that I've been into knives for long enough that I no longer feel the need to "buy every new knif...

Re: What are you listening to?

Mixed in among all the recommendations for knife reviews on my youtube was this song mashup.. it turned out that I actually enjoyed it.. I've listened to it a bunch over the last couple days..

Re: Spymyto is hot!

Hate to interrupt a perfectly nonsensical argument with on-topic commentary, but here I go.. I'm quite looking forward to the SpyMyto. One of my more recent Spyderco purchases was the SpyOpera - I bought it because it was deeply discounted and I couldn't pass up the deal. I ended up liking it even m...

Idk, all this talk of "walk away knives" sounds a bit far-fetched.. but, I will admit to seeing some appeal in the Delica platform..

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco

MidwayUSA has a sale code available for Cold Steel & SOG, which seems to work with already-discounted models.. take an extra 25% off an already ridiculously low $49.99 on the 4Max Scout using code KNIVES121123.. pretty sweet deal.

Re: What's your use for a Ladybug?

I normally carry a Jester or Man/Ladybug loose in my left front pocket with my keys. I like having one on me in case I'm around people who may be more knife-adverse than myself, where using a larger knife would raise eyebrows.. no one has ever questioned a tiny little pocket knife though.. I've even...

I need another PM2 like I need a hole in the head, but I'll probably end up with at least one o...
