Thumb ramp or naw?

Spyderco fans have their preferences. A real straight forward question that everyone’s got an opinion on; do you dig thumb ramps or not?

Re: I’m an indecisive giant. Millie vs Chief!

I've really enjoyed reading through this thread folks. Thanks for all the commentary.

I feel I'm no closer to making a decision than when I first posted this unfortunately. Perhaps I should flip a coin?

(Also, I invite more input if you've got some!)

Re: 15V Shaman!

After currency conversion, my local retailer will be selling this knife for $293 USD. A bit too pricey for me, but I hope everyone who wants/can afford one makes it happen!

Re: I’m an indecisive giant. Millie vs Chief!

Appreciate all the feedback guys. As for the Stretch 2 XL Cruwear option, the lanyard tube issue people were having is a concern for me, especially considering the knife is pricier than the ones I listed initially. I hadn't thought of the YoJumbo actually. I'll give it a closer look, but it seems to...

I’m an indecisive giant. Millie vs Chief!

Blurple S110V Millie vs Carbon/S90V Chief.

Forget that it’s me trying to decide. Which option do YOU like better?

As always, thank you for your input!

Knife giveaway! Huzzah!

Hey folks,

If you're on Reddit, I'm doing a gear giveaway on r/EDC. I posted earlier today so I hope you can find it. The more entries the merrier!

-The Canadian Giant

(A blacked-out Millie is part of the gear, so I thought it was appropriate to post here.)

Manix 2 XL blade swap.

I've got a blacked-out M2XL with standard grip G10 and S30V. I've also got a smooth G10 M2XL with Cruwear steel. I've never taken either of them apart, but I want to do a blade swap real quick. Disassembly of the CBBL lock worries me a bit. If I remove all hardware, should it be easy to make the swi...

I leave a serrated pacific salt in the truck. It’s there in case of emergencies or if I forget to put a knife in my pocket before walking out the door - which does actually happen from time to time
This is my answer, except for forgetting a knife. I grab a blade before I put on clothes usually.

Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??

Even my beloved Micarta scales Endura (yesterdays carry) succeded in pushing this guy out of my pocket for not more than just a single day... today the Stretch XL SE is back there again. (If the Endura had teeth too though , it could have put up much more of a fight ;) ) https://i.postimg.cc/sgqFCs...
