I probably look at these pictures once every couple of weeks, they're fantastic!

I'm really kicking my self for not getting my Pac salt done the same way before Tom decided to focus on his own knives. Oh well :D .

Hmm, When was the stainless/FRN inlay Stretch made? This is the first time I've ever seen it. I didn't even know it existed. :eek: :D

Thanks, this helps a lot. It also saves me quite a bit of money because I need a thicker knife. The CF looks really nice though.

CF & FRN Stretch Comparison pic Request

Hello, I was thinking about buying a Stretch and I would like to see Comparison pics between the two different models. My main interest is the thickness of the handles. So a shot like this one; Image is what I'm looking for.

Thanks much. :D

Thanks for the tips about the chinese fakes. I'm gonna go check the shop on Monday and post pics if I buy it. I just read some things about the knife and it's going to be interesting to see which steel I end up with seeing as how it was made with 440v and s30v on different years. I also had a questi...

Should I buy a Gunting for this price?

Hi all, a local gun shop has a NIB Gunting for $125 and I was wondering if that's a good price. I'd like to add it to my collection, but I just need some reassurances concerning the price. Thanks ahead of time.

The flagship should be either an Endura/Delica or the Native. They're the most common and probably the most recognized among the general knife community. As far as the whole jungle scenario goes, I'd take a Rock Salt if I had a hatchet and saw, or a Forester if it was my only tool. http://spyderco.c...

I'd buy two if it ever came back. I'm surprised there's not more interest in this knife. I hadn't heard of this knife until a couple of years ago and it was short run that many on this forum may not have heard of it. Maybe people need pictures and some knife info to get interested. Sal, please bring...

I bought one from the same place several months ago. I think you'll be surprised how the G10 feels, it's not rough like the military, but the grip is still good. The handle shape is very comfortable, you can use it for a long time without getting fatigued. As far as slicing goes, it performs great, ...

I switched my vote to Manix 2 after I saw the handle for the frn UKPK. I thought it was gonna be that cool bi-directional style like the E4, but I dislike the design that got used. blegh.

I got one fairly quickly by posting in the trade section of bladeforums. I traded my '09 forum native straight up. Try advertising something rare, some of the people that bought the USN Endura got more than one and would be willing to trade for something unique. It's worth a shot, good luck!

I got my dad a bug and a honeybee for Christmas. They're the only two knives he carries/uses because he hates any extra weight in his pocket.

They're great to have around.
