Re: How Old Were You When You Began Carrying?

In 3rd grade I remember getting in trouble for bringing a slip joint to school because I thought it was cool, and honestly didn't know it was a problem until another student reported me. In middle school I got my first SAK classic, with translucent gray scales. Didn't really start to consistently ca...

Re: Native Chief M390 sprint run

I like mine, although it does have a few aesthetic problems. One of the G10 slabs has a tiny bit extra material sanded off that makes the two scales uneven. I can't feel any difference in hand and it took me a few days to notice it. The other thing is the centering is off and kind of unfixable, but ...

Re: What watch you're wearing?

It hasn't been as soon as I had hoped, but the Laco finally shipped today. I had to order it twice because the first dealer had stock issues so I cancelled that order. Ended up finding one on eBay for a smaller price tag and the seller just gave me the tracking number today :)

Re: Rebuilding your collection from scratch

I would try to obtain "upgraded" exclusive versions of each:
Para2
Delica4
Manix2
Endura4
Lil Native
Para3
Techno2 (because the Bowie would be almost impossible to replace)
Stretch XL
Dragonfly2
Ayoob
Maybe a Sage5 LW
I would wait for the Military 2 to come out to fill that void.

Re: The Knife Joker Lil Native DLC Cruwear/ Dark Green g-10!!!

Was able to order one after all; the XL Stretch hurt the wallet a bit but I moved along a couple of folders that I never carried and so now I'm stoked to be picking up one of these lil guys.

Re: Stretch 2 XL in grey G10 and CruWear steel!

Beau, thanks for the heads up, been on the hunt for this since I viewed all the great photos everyone has shared here. And I always enjoy giving KW business. Order confirmed on this XL Stretch. Guess I won't be getting the Lil Native from knife joker tmr, I'm happier with this bigger model.

Not wearing it yet, because I just ordered it, but soon I'll be posting a pic of my first Laco pilot watch.

Re: The Knife Joker Lil Native DLC Cruwear/ Dark Green g-10!!!

I like all the previous suggestions for cruwear models, but I feel like we've been waiting for an Endura in cruwear for a long time. Dlc blade and green FRN. Still haven't given up hope on it.

Re: What Spyderco that was DISCONTINUED would you like to see back.

Caly3. I have the CF ZDP model and it's one of my oldest and favorite knives. I wish it were available in a stainless option, and micarta would be sick too.

Re: Para 2 cruwear micarta

I was just handling my crucarta pm2 and admiring it's qualities. The liners are finished well and smooth, comp lock tab certainly is much nicer at that larger size. Only abusing the knife would cause it to break. The handle is the same thickness as standard para2s and it feels exactly the same to my...

Heck yes. I love this platform, thankfully the 10th is payday for me. Like many of us here I'm still recovering from the Black Friday sales madness.

Re: What is the first Spyderco you'd replace?

I unfortunately lived through this scenario, back in 2008 my house burned down and I lost pretty much all my stuff. Fortunately I was a 19 kid who hadn't discovered Spyderco yet, so the collection at the time was basically all Cold Steel (lol). If I could I would definitely replace my Moro Barong sw...

Re: Anyone Have Experience With A Miyabi

I have 2 Miyabis, the 8 inch is VG10 and the 9.5inch is SG2. Both are excellent knives, with amazing micarta handles. If you can find a good deal on one it is highly recommend. Been using both of them for years now.
