i have a fairly small and not very exotic collection of spydies, but my EDC has varied over the past year between the merlin and the native III. people notice a hawkbill that isn't junky in my experience, and the merlin has definately gotten an approving nod from knife people when we talk about what...

while there are scads of cheap FRN knives out there these days, i don't mind them on my spydie because a> they were doing this first anyway (i don't remember whether spyderco did FRN folders first, but they did it before a lot of those cheapo makers knew what a locking folder was), b> my first spydi...

i can't wait-hopefully, the smaller one won't cause any legality issues-i usually prefer not to carry anything that i might get hassled for. i guess i could just put a sheath on my forehead. so much for concealment then, eh?

i think java is nuts. that is to say that i REALLY like his idea. only problem at the pizza shops is when the actually SHARP pizza cutter shreds the box beneath it, or the screens, or etc, etc, etc. maybe a spyderslicer trainer to get employees used to the weight and feel BEFORE they're cutting on l...

i typically carry my merlin. cuts everything i see with aplomb. i'll probably carry my new (used, but i picked one up for 20 bucks) endura some, but the legality may be iffy here in NC, and the merlin doesn't draw too much trouble. i have a dragonfly that does a fine job as well, but it has been wel...

while cheese, yoghurt, and (to a lesser extent) milk seem to go alright thorough me, give me some ice cream and i'll be pretty sorry later. i have basically the same gut-ripping symptoms (though i don't know if you've had the doubled over, sweating from the pain experience yet), and lactaid doesn't ...

if anyone wants to get a look at the actual hole-cutting so as to see what the holes would look like, the dealer video joyce has been sending out has a nice little clip of that part of the process. check it out-cool little video.

my ex (who i am, for difficult to discern reason, still close to) seems to get a great deal of amusement when i pull out the merlin on a nice center-cut sirloin at a steak joint. hey, if they didn't want me to do so, they would have given me decent cutlery!
