Spyderco Forums

I remember one guy selling part of his civvy collection (more than a year ago). He told (he wrote) that he had all versions civilian had been made: plain edge aluminium no tuffram, serrated alum., plain tuffram coated alum. handled, serrated tuffram, serrated g-10. I can't remember if there has ever ...

SS Civilian????
Never heard of one! There are old aluminium Civvys without tuffram covering. Could the civvy you saw be one of those?

Good idea!

I already have spyderco steak knives as my both serrated enduras reside in kitchen drawer.

Thinner mbs-26 blade would be even better.

Calypso jr.

I have two BF blue natives. Those are THE natives to have BUT calypso jr (ltwt or micarta) is my choise for every task if these are the only possibilities. Reason is that while native is as goos as calypso in shallow cuts calypso is much better when cuts get deeper. Calypsos Whittling ...

SwissTool. Why have those swiss engineers put those blades in that thing?<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> I never use those.

I've done it(telemark skiing of course) only tree years but in deep snow I ski better with telemark skis than with slalom skis despite of about 20 ...

Samo, never seen snow!!!!

Clay, What kind of skiing weather you have there? Alpine or cross-country? Because you need an emergency ski repair tools I assume that you are doing alpine or telemark skiining. am I right?

I only have one that is irreplaceable: plain C12

Competitor to my Calypso jr. Flat grind & vg-10 should make nice slicer.
I'll get one for sure!
I was hoping for bamboos not bats but green will do.

My thoughts exactly (although I have CF lady). Ladybug should be all serrated or all plain. It is too short to be semi. Normal ladybug shoud be plain and the sheepsfoot blade serrated --> one would be able to recognize blade style by shape without need to open the knife even in dark.

I'll be asking in December.

I've wanted SS endura for a long time but the Blade steel aus-6 hinders me from buying one.

I've limited myself to one knife/month (because of financial reasons) this cruel self hindrance has kept me buying many.

That kind of clip design is the reason I have considered to buy EDI genesis. Ultra low ride clip, slim lock back with micarta handles and spydie hole - I wouldn't consider I'd buy.

I must assume that CF Civilian is not in my hands before next year <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>.

Well Chinese folder will ease my itch.

Of what I have/have handled:
1. Moran with convex gring - because it is fixed
2. Starmate - because it is my most recent knife
3. Khalsa - because it is unique and very ergonomic
4. Wenger - utility materialized

I assume that Chinese folder will be high in my list when I get one.

Ultimate would ...

First was a serrated Endura for steak knife less than two years ago. Now I have about 20.

When are we going to see these? September?<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
This year?

Well maby sometime in distant future ELU can appreciate Calypsos ingeniuos design and demand a new batch of Calypsos. Then it might be worth to try a limited batch of Ti Calypsos.
Ti Polices were desired and didn't collect dust in warehouses ...
