Re: Mourning for the brick and mortar stores

Still have one store I can go to, they stock a lot of spydercos but hardly all. But the prices are not bad and I like to be able to actually handle the knife.
Online stores are great for wider selection but that's about it.

Love the photo Wartstein! Where is that? Actually it's up THERE ((yellow circle in the pic) ;) https://i.imgur.com/2LFoFCH.jpg You know, I live in Salzburg, normally I avoid (like many locals) the (inner, old) city in the midst of summer. Then there is the Salzburg festival, and (too) many tourists...

Most of my knives are plain edge. But serrations are growing on me, tho my only serrated knife right now is a combo edge native5.

Why the lil native...

So I love my dragonfly, carry either the vg10 or the h1 version a lot, especially in summer when biking etc. But the other day I snagged the clip on something and bent it. Not enuff to damage it just enuff to make it loose. Bent it back it's fine. But this raises a question:" people have often ...

Wartstein, that view is amazing (especially as it is so hot and humid where I am! I can practically look at that and feel the fresh cool air!)

Re: Horrible: Store broken into and Spyderco knives, etc stolen.

unless you have the original sales receipt with the proper serial number. Well then I'd be screwed as almost all my stuff is second hand or custom brazed frame jobs and most of what isn't custom (three of em) the rest is assembled from frame only to my specs. But then I wouldn't pawn a bike anyway,...

Did spyderco ever make or do they ,make a "stiletto" style blade?

Re: Can a knife’s weight affect its performance?

The only area where I've really noticed a major diff is weight, take the diff between the sabre (hollow?) ground endura and the ffg. The thick one because the blade has so much more mass than most of my other knives most of which are thinner, it closes FASTER. This could be dangerous as it changes t...
