I got mine yesterday (thanks Tom) and I hate to say it but, I'm not lovin' it. The grind on the top edge of the blade (swedge?) is SO severe it looks like a mistake. It *almost* touches the hole. My trusty SS Dragonfly that I EDC'd for 4 years has almost the same exact grind but it goes with the loo...

Why The Urban is the Best EDC I Ever Carried
1. It is very lightweight - the lightest spydie I own 2. It rides deep in the pocket - barely visible 3. The wire clip is unobtrusive to the eye - further hides the knife 4. The blade is a big leaf-shaped full flat grind - very useful, easy to maintain 5. The foliage green G10 is a lovely color - ma...

Thanks!
Thanks everyone for your comments. I enjoyed taking pictures and typing throughout the process. Only wished I would have gotten the meat-n-potatoes on film... guess I'll have to make another one!

After he retired he became a member of the local search and rescue and as such is on call 24/7 rescuing folks who...

Skinning a Mule
In the sprit of "Tech Week" on my other favorite website, I'm building a MT01 for my uncle and I thought I'd bring you along for the ride. http://www.hbci.com/~erix/knife/knife01.JPG Here is the "shop". It's a rolling stand I welded up one afternoon. Mounted to the top is a bench...

In case anybody is losing sleep.. I followed dialex's advice and picked up a Lava on the 'bay for a great price. It's feels larger than I thought it would, very sturdy, balanced, the jimping really digs in! When you're holding it you know you've got something in your hands special. This is my second...

It's Birthday Knife Time Again
Every year I buy a new knife for my birthday. Over the years I've acquired a SE 'Q', SS Dragonfly, Co-Pilot Sprint, and Mule Team 1 but this year I'm at a loss - so many to choose from! The knife becomes my EDC for the year - 'cept for the mule, natch.... I really like the "odd ducks" so I...
