I agree with the previous posts about getting a Weirhauch.If they seem too expensive for you the best deal on a quality accurate rifle is the Diana model 34.They have been around for a while and have proven themselves to be great value.Weihrauch makes a model called a HW50s that gives good bang for ...

They are just like any shapening stone, and can be filed ,put back to round,.Consider it maintenance.I use a diamond file to take any bumps out or smooth the abrasions.Don't be too fussy on Spyderco's :spyder: products, because the have to be made for a price point, and the more precision, the more ...

I always carry a G10 PE Byrd crossbill.I usually rotate other spydies in my other pockets[Endura,Kopa,Centofante etc.]If I am going to do some heavy duty cutting or pruning, it's the Crossbill that comes out.Hawkbills are some of the most usefull cutting tools.The more you use it ,the more it grows ...

I have built an number of systems, and from my experience computers are quite tough.Liquids are your worst enemy, and many students have trashed their laptop by spilling their drinks on it.Another thing to watch out for is to close the lid of your laptop on a pencil or pen.It trashes the lcd screen....

If I enter areas that need a little SD, I usually carry a Stinger and a Chinook.James Keating designed the Chinook as a Kubiton style weapon used for striking with the pommel end of the knife.Keating lives just a few miles to the south of where I live, and told me he is a firm believer in non-lethal...

As an alternative to the traditional Kubiton, I would suggest a design produced by James Keating, designer of the Chinook.It's a nasty little device that works very effectively. http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r173/gandalfe_photo/IMG_0108.jpg It comes in many colors and dosen't look like a weapon.

I believe Kershaws make good knives.Although Spyderco's make up most of my collection, I have a few Kershaws that I carry.My favorite is the Shallot.It is a solid, well made, stainless handled folder with an elegant look.It's in my pocket right now, and that says a lot for a guy with 30 plus knives.

I bought a knife off them, was billed for it, and all I got was an IOU.They told me, in the IOU, that they will send the knife, when the Manufacture sends it to them.Very arrogant.You would be better off buying from someone else.They sell things without having it in stock, and don't tend to answer e...
