I like the idea, but please keep it uniform - no personalizations, or different/multiple badge designs.

That's a cool idea. With the salts geared towards water use, I doubt we'd ever see any of those colors regularly (blue, white, transulcent). I'd definitely (try to be fast enough to) get one of those! +1 for the Salt, and the color of the handle is nice too. I'd rather say a knife with H1 steel sho...

Glad to hear that you are safe bro, and I hope for a speedy recovery. The rot has set in everywhere, and it always pays to be safe than sorry. Good luck.

"amar" is short for Amarendra, my real name. While Amarendra is made of Amar (Immortal) + Indra (God) = God of the Immortals = God of Gods. My parents gave it. Ah, actually there is this interesting story around my name. My mom wanted "Rajendra" (Raja + Indra = King of Gods), but...

Awwww...I found this series to be dang boring and devoid of any reality, except for the personal lives of characters. They lost me when they started showing those stupid flashbacks of everyone, and never could get over it.

Cricket helps carve a foam donut for Peak flashlight

Hello friends, Until now, I never realized the different shape of the Cricket's blade -- today it saved my day, and my flashlight when I "carved" a foam donut for it. Peak LED Solution's Matterhorn AAA flashlight does not have a spring at the base, but uses a foam donut for cushioning effe...

Amazing spin

Since I have a fair number of knives now, I put out the Spin for sale of forums. But when I took that beauty out from the box, I simply had no heart to sell it. I slept over the decision for 2 days, but no, my heart was not ready to let it go. Finally, the Spin went right in my pocket and is no long...

One should never over-depend on something to function flawlessly, and always have a variety to avoid "single point of failure". Benchmade makes excellent knives, and the stud or the hole are personal choices, but the blades are great. So enjoy the Grip, as you enjoy your Spydies. :-) -Amar...

Cheerful, colorful spydies

Photos of my spydies. Ideas for photography are mostly borrowed looking at other photos. Meerkat is presently serving time in my pocket, while Endura has cut a watermelon. The trainer is a "toy" for me and my 3 yr old daughter! :-) -Amarendra http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/amar/kni...
