Left Handers and Spyderco's???

I am a left hander and there ar so many knives out there that I would love to purchase, but can't because of their design. Right handed liner lock type knives are dealy for lefties. And the pocket clip is on the wrong **** side.



My question is, (other than the FRN clipits and the stainless ...

It sounds like the officers were legally wrong (as the Delica's blade is under 4 inches) regardless of what age you are. However, not all officers are mature and responsible enough to perform their jobs effectively and fairly. It sounds like you came accross some officers who fit in to this category ...

Contact the airlines and ask them directly as the FAA regulations (4inch blade or less) can be further tightened by individual airlines.

SgtMike is correct.

Glock barrels and slides are made from quality steel which has been treated with a special "Tenifer" process. This colorless carbo-nitrate formula enriches the steel with oxygen, sealing its pores. Tenifer makes the steel extremely hard (as hard as industrial diamond on the ...

Native Question

I just puchased a Native (serrated blade). IT looks and feels great. My only issue with the knife is that when the blade is at about a 45 degree angle through a 90 degree angle, when I am opening the knife, I get a considerable amount of drag. It lookssounds like this blade is dragging on the handle ...
