Hmmm...dpends on what size.

Small: Stainless Steel dragonfly
Medium: Calypso Jr. or Delica
Large: Tough choice...either the SS police, Civilian, or Military <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Nice pictures Samo <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>. Good luck in the future. Since we are talking about fishing, I might as well say that I enjoy a different kind of fishing. We usually go out for tuna, marlin, shark, and any other offshore fish. <img src="smile....

Cobra hood

This topic was discussed in BladeForums, but I'm still hazy. First off, what is this Cobra Hood? Secondly, what knives will have it? Last question, I promise<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>: are there any pics?

Go with the dragonfly. I recently bought the ss version of the dragonfly for a dress knife, and it works great. I especially like the flat ground blade...a rare occurance with the stainless handles. Like always, it's a great knife. Of course, it's a spyderco. An honest man's pillow is his peace of m...

I'd have to agree with you on that one, Jeff. The 'one' has got to be the fully serrated stainless steel police. I own that plus about 11-13 other spyderco's and must say it fits in your hand great, has a great blade, and gets lost in your pocket.

A slight dilema is occuring. My sister's boyriend's birthday is August the 27, and I want to buy him a knife. He uses a fake spydie knock-off ( very dull, lots of bade play, and the lock fals while cutting cardboard), and I want to buy him a real spyderco. I love spyderco's. That's why I perfer to s...

A good poll

I got the idea to ask my fellow spydie nuts a question. So here it is...which you you prefer: hollow ground bade, or flat grind? And why? I personaly perfer the hollow ground. I think it looks great, and is even better with a top swedge. Sal, which do you like? An honest man's pillow is his peace of...

ceramic blade?

This is a quesion mainly for Sal: Do you plan on ever considering making a limited production knife with a ceramic blade and grey/black handles such as CF, or maybe G-10? I own a ceramic bladed Boker, and let me say it says sharp as **** (not as sharp as a spydie), and is super light. Maybe you coul...

dragonfly compared to navigator?

I figure on buying one this week and was wondering, which is better steel wise. The navigator is GIN-1 while the dragonfly is in either ATS-55 or AUS-8. Which is better in your opinion? I'm taking about edge retention, rusting, hardness, and the likes. Thanks for the help. PS- Which do you prefer an...

Jeff: Good choice. I had my SS police with a fully serrated edge for almost a year now, and love it. Your right, it does disappear in your pocket, even though it weights nearly 6 oz. I don't carry it that much, the size and serrations tend to scare the people. That's why I'm trying to decide on my n...
