I enjoy using my Shun Santoku and Henkels chef knives in the kitchen, but while camping my Pacific Salt does food prep because it's length handles most food prep duties and I can hose it off, soak in water, swish in lake or pretty much any cleaning method without corrosion worry. When I go out for s...

After carrying my Para 1 for several years now, I picked up a black-bladed Para 2 recently. This knife is an awesome redesign, it has the best fit, finish and design of any knife I've owned. I know people occasionally get knives with various small imperfections, etc, but after almost two weeks of ca...

I have carried the Para 1 for years as backup for self defense, and I just received my black-bladed Para 2 that is quickly dominating all my pocket time :cool: I choose the Military line due to the awesome gripping shape and G10, which is more important to me than blade length. I also find the large...

Para in traditional black handle satin PE blade.

I'd say 80-90% of all men carry some sort of bag in Metro NY (the vast majority blue collar) Mostly backpacks or messenger bags. Only girlie men walk around with everything stuck in their pockets, looks like the brothers got tumors growing on their bodies. get a bag gents, makes a man's life easier...

My first Para had vertical play and I almost lost all hope for the model after reading some posts here. I ordered a second one and have carried and used it extensively and it still has a rock-solid lockup with no play. I guess that means I have a 50% chance of getting a good one.

Good luck there GarageBoy, fight for your right.

Another reason I would never live outside the great state of Texas, I see other people carrying knives clipped to their pockets everywhere I go, the cops would be inundated trying to harrass all of us!

ZDP Caly Jr. has been my edc since I got it :spyder:
Of course I back it up with a Para on the weekends :cool:

Does anyone have favorite techniques for removing light scratches from SS handles? I like SS on smaller knives -- makes them feel more substantial -- but even light EDC use invariably creates scratch marks. I would like to be able to repair them from time to time, as needed. wipe going with the gra...

I earned my business degree in finance last year, now I am a loan officer for a large finance company. Being the new guy on the team I have a billion things to learn, but they treat us good so I expect to stick around for awhile and build up my resume of experience. Pay so far is only average, but I...

This is just a mindless riddle I made about the Spyderco Delica 4, no prize except pride here :D

What do the numbers 15 and 13 have to do with a SS Delica 4?
What do the numbers 15 and 21 have to do with a frn Delica 4?

Who can figure it out? :cool:

That is some flawed logic there :rolleyes:







I think I will stick with Sal's recomendation of 30 degrees :spyder:

I pulled the trigger on one earlier too!
I have been really impressed by alot of the Kershaw offerings; my first clipped pocket knife was a Kershaw and I put them up-close to (but never over :cool: ) Spyderco.

I don't concentrate on one aspect, like all Delicas or all SE; instead I like to cover the variety of all knife styles and makes. I like to have the different innovations, like a waved knife, a DLC coated knife, an H1 knife, the ball lock, the compression lock, etc. It is fun when your collection th...

I'm assuming that the clip bolt is aluminum on all of the knives, at least that is what it feels like to me.

My two burgundy Calys are solid all around, they have the least blade play of any of my frn Spydies.

I need to find some fun stuff to shoot I get bored of just punchin' holes in paper with my .40 Glock

I LOVE my two burgundy ZDP Caly Jrs :spyder: Over the last year and a half I have always carried my Caly Jr. paired with a larger knife like my Para, Styker etc. It has been my main edc more consistantly than ANY of my other knives. Even if I want to carry two different knives for a change I usually...

The price is too high, but if what he says is true that really is a neat piece of history. I would pay a couple hundred for it because of its significance, but nothing even touching three grand.

With the popularity of many of the Spyderco sprint runs it is important to jump on them has soon as possible. I was wondering if anybody had a recommendation to where I could pre-order a CF Caly 3 or pink Delica.
