Don't post your phone #. And you may have to be patient w/some n00bs. Oh,and always check your buyers' feedbacks.

I've ordered from them a couple times. Both good and bad experiences. They do have some good prices on Spydies right now. You pays your money,you takes your chances.

When I first got my Pride(free from SFO w/my Forum Hawk set),it felt funny cause there wasn't a lock to push. Then I figured a trick. I put my index finger under the choil(like I normally would for a front lock) and then instead of pushing a lock,I'd push the base of the blade. The choil would hit m...

I thought they were only available retail in South Africa? And what's w/the VG-10 and dent? Mine's ATS-55 and plain. I saw 2 on eBay the other month. Snagged one of them. Those are the only 2 I've seen for sale. I'd call first before placing an order. I've tried to buy several disco'd models from we...

Nah. Hate to say it,but the Scorpious just doesn't do it for me. I don't like the handle ergos.

Now I could go for a rainbow SS Dragonfly.

Kershaw does the assists right. Spring doesn't kick in until it's half closed. Love the Leek for it's blade shape,but wish it had G-10 handles and better steel. The Random Leek is S30v,but it's not as pointy and the handles are still too smooth. They are awful fun to play w/though. Tossing around th...

I dig Benchmade for their Axis locks and AFCK's. But I gotta give the nod to Spyderco. Serious customer support and a dearth of designs you just don't see anywhere else. Benchmade may be a 10,but Spyderco goes to *11*. ;-)

Mine are #'s 331 and 635,so there were at least 635 made.

What's truely rare is to find one w/both the original blue box and the rubber lanyard. I've got 1 box between my pair,and no lanyards.

Ball locks: they rock! LED's: what size and output are you looking for? For keychain use,the Photon and Arc AAA set the standards. The Photon is smaller and has better batt life;the Arc uses cheaper batts and they're easier to change. For 'standard size',Princeton Tec makes a nice selection of LED l...

I use Sack Ups from SMKW. They're made of silicon-impregnated cotton,so they're not only gentle on the knives,but protect from rust. They come in singles and various capacity rolls.

ATS-55. I just like it. I can put a good edge on it fairly easily,and it's very forgiving. I've straightened out 2 bent tips(I didn't do either,they were lot buys off eBay) w/out breakage.
