Pilot Leafstorms are sold out. Pilots should be worth a pretty penny someday!

Mine is scheduled for delivery Monday.

1 Leafstorm ordered. Now The long wait begins. Exciting!!!

I wouldn't call myself a whittler per se. But I don't see the benefit of a "classic whittler". IMHO those a just an "old technology" or knives like grandpa had. From the limited whittling I've done the Spyderco Swick works quite well. Maybe a Jess Horn which is very pointy. Also ...

After the feds get it they send it out to the corporate blood suckers, liars and thieves. :eek: :mad:

I'm happy to know the MSRP of Leafstorm. Should be able to pick one up for $150. Not bad. :D

Cool! I would have bought the Leafstorm pilot that was on ebay a couple of days ago before it was pulled. It was surprising to see a pilot knife for sale. So selling pilot knifes is new policy now? I wish I had the money though. I just mailed my entire savings to the feds for income taxes two weeks ...

What's the symbol?


Looks good.

What to get next, stuff to cut. Enjoy Sage's cutting capabilities. There may be prettier knives but few will outperform Sage. :D

0000 and 9999

Thnx

....James Pines, an information technology project manager who lives in Bloomfield, spotted the problem Monday after he installed a $70 filter onto his home's main water line. He soon saw what he called "little polliwogs" gather inside the cartridge. "This is what we are drinking,&quo...

I love the Phoenix, a knife which is tuff as nails. If a knife is going to bear a symbol which represents The Japanese God of War it better be a tuff knife. From the tip, down along the hollow ground edge to the choil and the Ti slabs that make up the handle, we have a knife that is basically indest...

Procrastination is a habit. A bad habit. Start a new habit. Stick to your new habit for 30 days. Your new habit has now been established. Make the 30 days easier by chossing a new habit which is fun. I suggest buying every Spyderco you wanted to buy. Don't procrastinate, feel the desire and act, buy...

Different box codes pictured.

"super choil" dude!

The two newer boxes have that extra four digit number. It's located directly below the date code. What is it?

For some reason I think Sal is keeping this knife in the line-up in spite of it not being real popular. If Sal likes it that much need more be said?

:spyder:

Congrats! But remember she doesn't get to keep that knife until you guys actually tie the knot.


:p

Hate to be a spoiler and upstage TK, sorry TK but I must share the news. The forum knife will be a Sage 3 pilot knife with a lock back and Ti handle anodized purple!!!

I think it's normal. I just started using a brand new ZDP Delica. I bought it when they first came out. While whittling on a walnut branch and the knife shaves off a thicker piece of wood, the blade moves like it's opening farther than it should be possible.( hopefully not too bad of a description )...

Short edge wharncliffes are fine but I was unable to put longer edge wharnies to good use. I would like to have an Atlantic Salt in plain edge though. At what tasks will a 4" or so length wharncliffe blade excel?

Mine is like that too. Aside from that though I still like it a lot.
