Knife Washers

I've been carrying the Ayoob sprint this week and notice how smooth this knife works with no washers. Just the blade steel riding against the raised steel liners, metal against metal. Why do most models have phosphor bronze washers? Why does the Resilience have both phosphor and nylon washers on eac...

Re: Stretch XL discussion

I have the Stretch K390 and I bought an XL Combo Edge. I like the XL a lot more even though its linerless. It just feels good in hand, action is so smooth like the Rock Jumper

Re: Long Timers: How has this forum changed?

Im still new here but I will add my opinion. There isnt to many good reviews here on knives. Its like someone buys the knife, takes pictures of it and you never hear about it again. Id like to see more in use pictures, getting dirty, hard use and how it performed. Also there is way too many requests...

Soccer/football World Cup

Any fans here? The world cup is coming up and I cant wait to watch all of the games. USA are in this year but didn't qualify 4 years ago and this time my wifes Colombian team didnt make it. I never was a "sports guy" till I met my wife in 2010, and she said the world cup was on. Been a fan...

Re: To DLC or not to DLC?

I have thought about this before for a long time, What if the blade from the plunge line back to the scales was DLC and the rest of the blade was Satin. Under the scales was protected from rust and the rest of the knife can patina if that is whats wanted. Im not a a Photoshop guy, someone do it. Hal...

Re: Manix 2 Lightweight CPM SPY27

This is in opposite direction of your question, but National Knives has the pinned version on a good sale. You must be logged in to see the $107 listing. I realize this is the opposite of what you are asking for but seems like a screaming deal in case you want to consider it. https://www.nationalkn...

Re: Work Horse/Abused Spydercos

Yes, lovin it! keep posting. Broken tips, scratched up blades, a knife lost in the yard for days getting rusty?

Or just normal wear and tear of a knife you have carried for years.

Did you do something "stupid" like batoning? Post it up

Re: Manix 2 XL St.Nicks Knives Exclusive

I like my SNK Chief and want to support the local shop, but I never carry my Manix LW because it takes up too much pocket real estate being so wide. I'm sure the XL will probably be more of the same. Both Manix 2 and XL doesnt take up much room in my pockets but I wear cargo shorts. Perhaps skinny ...

Re: Corrosion Reports

Been using my native 5 in SPY27 all summer for fishing. Regularly it spends all day wet or submerged in freshwater. I rinse it out when I get home and lay it out half open over night to dry. So far I have not had rust of any kind. I spent yesterday in Florida fishing on the flats and used my knife ...

Re: My blade nearly fell out!

Here we go again, one complains about no lock tite and one complains they cant get the knife apart.

Doc Dan, your old enough to notice, and 13,000 posts, if a pivot screw is coming loose. No need to start a thread to create drama.

Add some locktite and move on
