Re: Dr Larrin Thomas' New Video on Knife Steels

Nice one, Larrin! The geographic and visual context is excellent.

I grew up not too far from Bethlehem and the steel works were still running when I was a little kid. It was quite a sight.

I also remember even in the 80s the 'Burgh still had rather foul air from all the iron and steel production.

Re: A Gayle Bradley 2 in Cruwear!

I'd totally be in on a Crucarta GB1, even m4 and micarta.

The GB1 is both shorter and heavier than the 2.

Welp, Buddafucco strikes again! Thanks, Beau, had no idea these were available and so reasonable.

I hope you're getting a commission...
I wasn't sure it was a real thing until I got my shipping notice. I take it he had two and you got notification too.

Pretty cool.

Re: Spyderco Stretch Original

I am a big fan of both the Stretch 1 and 2. I quite like the Hap40 and V-Toku 2 models I have.

I much prefer the curvy spine to the straight spine.

Re: Chief with compression lock?

I'm not into yucking other folks' yum, but I like it how it is. For me making an existing linerless G10 Spyderco backlock design into a comp lock is most times going to be a downgrade. I like my full liner backlocks, but the linerless G10 backlocks are superb users and I'd hate to introduce liners. ...
