Tho I like all the different handle materials, FRN is what I like the best. Just feels right to me. Lightweight and tough. It doesn't feel like plastic to me. I like my FRN Delica. I don't know I'm carrying it until I need to use. It's always there, ready to go. Mine has the FRN clip too. That's a p...

I like the frn better than the ss. I have both. I like having my frn Delica in my pocket with very little to no weight. The ss has lots of weight to it. I am always carrying my frn Delica in preference to the ss one.

That teflon goes down the throat faster than the food cooked in it. We finally tossed our old teflon pan out this past summer. Food was sticking to it where the telflon was worn away. If I had my way we would have kept our full set of old iron skillets, pots, pans, and dutch oven. But that cookware ...

I saw the same type knife at smkw . Nice knife . I'd not use abrasives on it. I'd carry it and see it the spots go away on their own. You could try a rubber ink eraser to lightly rub the spots if necessary. You found a really nice knife. That's a bottle cap opener on the backend of it.

I was told by my allergist that I should not take the spray as I have asthma. But he did not know if I was in the correct age group to even get the shot? I don't want to get it but I will if the family doc recommends it. So far she hasn't. I'll going to check on it this week.

Nice design and would have been a nice knife. Don't give up. My friend paid a lot of money for a damascus blank and made a nice knife from it. He was about to ship it out to get heat treated by a pro when his FIL talked him into letting him take it to a friend and get it done. About two weeks later ...
