Re: Upland game/Small game knife
I shot five squirrel yesterday. I would have loved to have had a dedicated Spyderco small game knife when I was cleaning them, but I have to admit that my Mora Companion worked just fine.

Re: First of Many and What's Next?
Depending on what you need, it's hard to go wrong with a PM2. In my opinion, the PM2 is as close to perfect as a folder can be.

Re: Your "return ethics"?
My primary ethic is to honor the dealer's return policy. If that return policy allows me to return a knife simply because I'm not happy with it, then I have no problem doing so. The downside of buying an item online is that I can't handle it in advance. A good return policy compensates for this. Per...

Re: Spyderedged Blades: A Total Mis-Understanding Maybe?
I remember when partially serrated edges were extremely popular; however, when I tried a knife with a partially serrated edge, the experience turned me off to serrations in general. Then a few years ago, some well-written forum posts caused me to rethink the matter. The individuals who wrote the pos...

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
Also, I only got hits on the translucent blue option. It may be the case that this colour is more popular than the others, thus has a higher rate of restocking compared to black and black/DLC. Time will tell. This is what I've been wondering. I'm in the market for a black/black Manix 2 LW, but I'm ...

Re: Upland game/Small game knife
As I prepare for squirrel season, this question has been on my mind too. When cleaning squirrel, I prefer a stainless steel blade that is roughly 3" long and very slender. For big game, I usually use a fixed blade; however, for small game, either fixed or folding is fine. I can make other knive...

Re: Your Thoughts of an Ideal Companion Blade?
When I carry a companion knife, my intent is for it to compliment my primary knife. Therefore, if my primary knife is full size and has a plain edge, then my companion knife might be small and have a serrated edge. However, if my primary knife is small, then my companion knife might be large with ei...

Re: Interest for Cruwear Micarta Manix Backlock?
Yes, I would be interested. In my opinion, the Manix backlock is a tough knife, and the Cruwear/Micarta combination compliments that theme perfectly.

Re: Lc200n Manix 2 LW Interest Poll
Absolutely. I'm not a huge fan of BD1 or S110V; however, LC200N would be perfect for me.

Re: Police 4 Lightweight Observations
Thanks for the observations. I enjoyed reading your thoughts on this knife. Like you, I would love to see a full SE version. I also hope it gets the green/ZDP-189 treatment.

Re: What's wrong with S30V?
OP, I agree with you. I really like S30V. It's a great all-around steel. I think some of the people who avoid it are bored and want something else.

Re: Why no black TiCN PE Endura Family??
I'd like to see more coated blades too. I believe the only Enduras and Delicas that come with coated blades have combo edges. My guess is that they are marketed for the military. It has been my observation that a lot of military personnel like combo edges. In fact, stores on nearly every base I've e...

I voted "no." The Tenacious has never appealed to me.
