I have been holding off buying a Wegner C48 for a while now.The reason is I like a knife who's handle incorporates an index finger choil.Something like a Calypso Jr. (which I own).

Lynx is it........

Clay, I was leaning on purchasing the Wegner but you've got me leaning towards the Military. I like a knife that has the finger and thumb choils thats probably why I own the Dragonfly and Calypso Jr.I also prefer a flat ground blade (I'm not sure if the Wegner is flat or hollow ground). Also one of ...

Help choose next spydie!

So far I own the Dragonfly lightweight with plain edge, a Calypso jr. serrated with micarta handle (luv this knife). I also bought a Delica lightweight (for a gift) with 50-50 blade so I got to see and handle this knife it's a nice knife but about the same size as my calypso jr. and in my opinion no...

MaNcEr-- I'm Talking about a dog like a pit bull they don't stay at arms length.They come right at you without hesitation and grab part of you and don't let go.They are tough and don't feel pain.

Believe me folks the last thing I would want is a hand to hand struggle and all I had was a knife. I probably would turn and run as fast as I could ...but you can't out run a dog. To me I know I would'nt be cutting or slashing I'd be stabbing as fast as I could.And I would not use a gunting to hand ...

Sal
I be honest and tell you that I probably am not going to get any training.I realize that it would be a good idea though.
I'm not sure what you mean by "point & shoot"

Life or death encounter

My question to all experienced knife people. If you were in a life or death struggle(robber) and or being attacked by a large dog which Spydie knife would you want in your hands? I personally would want one that would not slip or be knocked out of my hand easily and one that would be very strong. I ...

John- It does say X= experimental on the box. and the handle does appear to be some sort of fiberglass. Blades- thats right I wanted the VG-10 steel blade because of all the hype I've been reading on it's cutting ability and it is supposed to hold a edge longer. Two more questions I like the FRN han...

I really wanted the calypso jr ltw with that g-10(I think it's g-10)plain blade.A lot of people here say that blade is awesome.
But is it really that much better? Also I'm not sure about that serrated edge it seems to tear rather than cut.

Here is what they sent me--A calypso jr., full serrated blade flat grind,AUS-8 blade. The handle is not the fishscale LW. I'm not sure what the handle is made of I think it might b...
