ITs too small to be useful really, and if you SE'd the edge, you'd get one or two gullets and three points.


I bought six of them, thinking they would be big enough to engrave my business card onto, (yeah, A reduced version but still a reasonably readable version was the goal, but its too small ...

Tip up may be cool till you reach into your pocket one day and the blade is 15% or so open and your first warning is a massive slice in your finger. there is no way a tip up is any faster than a tip down once you figure the sequence out.

I wish there was a way to get an email warning out.....I check here, but not every day, I would hate to miss this, my son wants this badly.

That knife with a liner lock, I would by as many as $500 would allow. I would prefer that would by me about 8 knives, then I would be set for life and have a few for my kids to inherit, I am getting tired of all the latest Spydie's seeming to run $140 to $240. I know costs have gone up, but endura's ...

OK picture this, reach into your pocket and be greeted by a razor sharp point and shaving sharp edge running into your thumb web and fingers.

yeah tip down is the way to go. People who say the above doesn't happen haven't carried a knife long enough.

I usually have a half dozen of so ladybugs in my briefcase that I have affixed a company logo on a leather leash. I hand these out as I encounter women in offices etc, who are using Keys, ball points etc, to open boxes, Once they see how easy it is to open a ladybug, and with the hole, they can use ...

In this era of TIGHT budgets, low amounts of discretionary incomes etc, how about a simple rendition of a Bob lum like blade with a simple but elegant leaf blade, simple (cheap and) elegant scales and a liner lock, something that will fall well under $70 bucks, and hopefully Under $50 or so.

I am sorry, but just how out of shape or else obsessive compulsive must you be to injured with tendinitis from opening a 4 ounce knife. Either you are doing it a thousand times a day, or you really need to put the nintendo or x box controller down and get out and do something.

I am a 50+ year old ...

Option one, MOVE. simple and easy, It really is a crappy place to live, high crime, corruption, and no legal guns. piss on it. I lived there, was offered a 6 figure salary to move back, I said, naw, life was too short to put up with BS that City has.

Option Two, ignore the law, everyone else does ...

Not a knife but my son took a flight from MPLS to Tampa last spring with his HS golf team, He and two others lost very expensive golf clubs out of the bags....My son and one other had Taylor Made drivers stolen, at about $375 each, and another boy had a Tiger Woods style putter from Titlest stolen ...

I bought her a new car....
its delivered tomorrow night, with a bow on it.

S30V has a tendency to micro chip, because of the size of the carbides in the steel. When it it used for a while instead of a nice smooth sharp edge, you get in effect a micro spydie edge. some lilke it, I don't. I want the finest grain I can get which keeps its edge. That seems to be the best ...

I used to not have a preference tip up or down until I cut my hand pretty bad with a vg-10 Mcusta while I was shopping at Dillards. The point of the blade is just slightly behind the liners and I was reaching into my pocket to get my keys out. Its a tip up design and it was in my left pocket, blade ...

S30V has large grains and likes to micro chip, D2 is fine grain, tough as heck and will last longer than you can imagine....

I still don't get it, and I use knives every day at work, and am open to something that would work, but I handled one and frankly i would not take it if given it.

Its flat out awkward, as far as a SD knife, I want something that goes in easier, that blunt fat tip will not go in easy. Its hard work ...

Why does 2 dollars worth of CF matt cost so much? I buy CF matting for work and its about 40 dollars a square foot,

I love the native, I only wish is the blade was less tall that is, the dimension between the cutting edge and the spine to me is about a 1/4 inch or more too tall. If it had a ...

I have yet to figure out what it would be good for, period.

Not to rain on the parade, but what is the purpose of the thing?

It seems to be a mistake at the grinding line, like someone started looking at one set of prints and while they had their head down, the wind blew the pages to another ...

WHich one is the walmart knife?

Clovisc. you missed a couple of words in my post, "for most".


while the areas are far more survivable than it would seem to those who have never been there, I would say most Americans would have severe difficulty living off the land anywhere, and particularly somewhere where darkness stays around ...

SKip the knives and get a gun, the numbers don't work.


Heres why, the US as of today, are somewhere near 80 people per square mile. or about 306 million, living on 3.8 milliion square miles,

however, if you remove alaska, because for most, its uninhabitable year round. the numbers are much ...
