I also EDC my yellow SE Tasman. Great blade, surprisingly easy to sharpen on the Sharpmaker. And I use it virtually everyday in a country where it is supposed to be illegal (wording here is important, I claim fair usage). Although hawkbill is not the most sheeple friendly blade, I only need to be ca...

1st option Let's do some maths :D Classic = (Great knife)x(small number)2 To become a classic, could we say that a knife must first be a commercial failure before being recognised as a good knife? :mad: classic example would be Caly jr. In other words, a highly collectable spyderco is a good knife w...

I would certainly have one. I carry Carbon steel regularly (Opinel and Laguiole) and would love a Spyder's touch on carbon. Plus, with the little knowledge I have gained of the Company and it's peopleover the last few month, I just KNOW it would not be just any kind of carbon steel...

Not trying to be smartass but this is so-so price of Ford Focus, isn't it? And yet for this price lot of options (like metallic paint) don't need to be there. (therefore more likely Ednura class than Manix class , IMHO) Huugh, Sorry but you were beeing a smartass. Car prices in your country (or min...

I love my grey Caly Jr, but i had to vote for my new EDC, Yellow Tasman.
it's sheeple friendly (the colour, not the blade :D ) and easy to find when out of your pocket. Plus I do not go with that stealth tactical mall ninja thing. But tht's just me :p .
If you have it flaunt it!

...so mini or full manix is my 2 cents Couldn't agree more. Manix is awesome as a utility, and looks (is) really big if you have to use it for SD. If it can scare the BG, all the better! Yous other option for SD is the dragonfly: you pull it out, the BG rolls on the floor crying with laughter and y...

It is broken. They tried to fix it a few weeks back but no different. Photobucket (or similar) only option.

My bad. Frame lock the whole side of the frame locks the blade, linerlock only the inside (the liner, doh!) locks. I had a small doubt (hence the brackets) but English not mother tongue... Sorry As to custom Carson... Yes of course, but it's a custom... As you quite rightly pointed out, great custom...

If you guys want to see a perfect example of a liner lock look at some of Kit Carson's knives, noboby makes them better or more perfect than Kit. If you're talking CRKT I'll have a mili instead, please. :) As to a perfect liner lock (if I understand that term correctly) I'll go for a Sebie. But you...

Let me first start by saying I am left handed. However, martial art training means that I use shinai, boken and katanas like a right handed. Which means I have no problems using my folders with either hand. I believe there is great wisdom in this. The historical purpose was dual: 1) it was safer and...

The Tasman has arrived!! :) :D :cool: It also came with a sharpmaker, 2 UF rods and a small bottle of millitec :cool: I have been testing the Tasman on NGK packaging... It's a total slaughter of cardboard :D . Been testing the Sharpmaker on the Manix as well: it works!!! Just one question to other N...

It' s coming at a knife dealer near you soon. It is fairly close to your dream but for the name.
They opted for "Caly 3" :D :cool: :D :cool: :D :cool:

Missing? Scott mentioned the Swick...
Would the vagabond count?

All Spydercos with a blade under 3" are rated "PG". Above 3" they are rated "R". :D :p

Sorry, couldn't resist :o :o

Hi Abouna For your info (in case you don't know, I sure didn't on my first days here) Sal is the President of Spyderco. He is also responsible for a lot of the designs, so you are in the best hands to choose exactly the knife you need. My only 2p will be: do not focus on the aesthetics. As Sal said,...

Oh Saint-Just don't Frown,... All, right here we go: :mad: :mad: ... :o ... :) :) ... :D I like the idea about selling them on the site alone for 30 to 40 each. I think there be enough interest to move a few of them on the Spyderco site without doing anything to them. I think selling them for $35-5...

Why not make them into badges, and send them to troops? Or incase them in wood and brass, and make them into pins? All for the troops, of course... Why the troops? What is their connection with this tragedy? and are you aware that it killed other nationals as well, not just Americans? I would total...

Not only is it a beautiful knife, it is proving a healthy investment as well :eek: : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=009&item=190026722590&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 Sad note 1: beyond my budget :( Sad note 2: hate to think how much a cranberry one w...

You wouldnt want to tell someone, "Oh, this is my Ninga Blaser Super Rekon Tanto Master Piercer" as that can be seen as threatening without even opening a knife in today's society :D :D Good one Zac... Having said that Civilian may be a PC word but a very un-PC blade :D :D :D :D An added ...

Full size Manix (+SAK). Must remember replacing Manix by Caly jr before I go out. WE is over :D :D :D
