Re: Family friendly jokes

The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing and stopped at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection. The tailgating woman behind him was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her ch...

Re: High-Impact Ceramic (HIC) first folder to be released

The Mule is double the price of normal Steel Mules. So couldn’t see it being that widespread anytime soon.

Re: I don't care about stainless *Edited

Have you tried any oil to protect it? Some peoples environments are more corrosive and more difficult to prevent rust in. I try to keep my tool steel knives oiled like I do my guns. Except the knives get mineral oils while the guns get Eezox. I don't like an "oily" knife or gun so its usu...

Re: MT40P – HIC Mule Team Dropping Soon!

Watch cases have been made out of this for years and it has shown that even after 5-10 years the watch still looks new. (As no scratches) The big thing was the brittleness (naysayers were everywhere early on) when they first came out but with 10 years of use I have only seen one or two that had bad ...

Re: LC200N for mullet? Recommendation Needed

I use Pacific Salts in the boat for all bait cutting and fishing requirements, and have for over 15 years

But don’t go past the Salt Enuff. Have one for rope cutting handy, be it crab pot ropes or tied off

$150 has slowed me down and not sticking to my magnetic knife rack… ',:-|

Probably kick myself for not being on these, but it’s the steel for me :tonque-out

Will order a few Spy27 or others Mules before the drop for the excitement of Mule drop :grin-sweat

Just lumed up some pin holes on my latest. Some sanding left and she’s good to go on the rack with the rest. https://files.catbox.moe/gq5ax5.jpeg https://files.catbox.moe/36wo6t.jpeg https://files.catbox.moe/qduf95.jpeg https://files.catbox.moe/6omb8c.jpeg https://files.catbox.moe/ajt2ry.jpeg

Re: New to the forum and Spyderco

Funny I have said for years, if I had my time in Spyderco buying again instead of buying a range of knife designs like I did. I would just buy Delicas in a variety of steels, blade shapes and colours.
So often I pull a Delica out of a bowl with 5-6 more expensive Spyderco knives
