Just got mine in a trade. AWESOME knife, small in the pocket, light weight, looks beautiful, has a bit thicker tip than I realized from the pics (not a complaint, as both splinter picker tips and a bit thicker ones have their places). Combined with my Raw NS and my CF pen, it will make my new Gentl...

I sold the 114v , then rec'd 3 more and put a couple of those on auction. Since I do not monitor the Forum 24 hours a day, I did not know there was another "run" of them. I found out when someone posted that there were 337 remaining. Now 2 days later there are 72 left...? Looks like those ...

I looked into this a while back,,,,, Just too many FRN & serrated models I am not interested in. How about a "Sprint Club"? I would jump on that! SC rather than CC. Again, it might just be me............ Just a suggestion. :) I think Sprint's are for us Forum members. I don't think Sp...

In 1965 Charles Whitman climbed to the top of the University of Texas Tower and shot to death 13 students and faculty from over 500 feet away. Because over 20 UT students went immediately to their pick-ups and retrieved their hunting rifles and fired upon the sniper distracting him, an off-duty Aust...

I would hate to see the Jumpmaster disco'ed. Wish more people would buy one. It's my fave FB. Great knife. It's a rescue knife, water/humidity knife and a cutting machine. What more can one ask for?

Here's how I learned to pronounce not only Centofante, but Terzuola as well. At Blade 2007 in Atlanta I took a smoke break just outside the exhibit area (with all the other smokers...) I was puffing next to the butt can and was approached by a gregarious and friendly older gentleman who asked for a ...

Jess, I agree, and hope my initial post did not give you the impression I was implying otherwise. No no, I got it. On the other hand, based on conversations with others, I knew I was not alone in thinking things had reached the point where some clarification and/or discussion as to the way the club...

Again Paul, you are spot-on the pulse of rational Spyderco afi/CC issues. And again this is an issue where so many have "their" preferred way things should be done in Spydie-Land. And like you mentioned.. CC'ers also have many different motivations for being in the club... supposed first o...

If my memory serves me correctly, the Ti Military's retail price is $349.95. I think there is a problem somewhere. Hate to burst anyone's bubble, but there was a mis-marked price on a dealer newsletter a while back... it had the correct dealer price, but incorrect retail price. That's probably where...
