Re: Sal asks you to design a Spyderco.

A Police 4, with a pinkyhook and a little more of a frontward guard, and a wide broad leaf shaped blade with a ton of belly. K390, m4 or something.

Re: All About D2 Steel - Development, Use in Knives, and Properties

Wish there was more D2 used by Spyderco. Especially as an alternative step up steel in the lower class ranges. Hell, I'd even buy d2 higher end ones.

Re: The most reliable locking mechanism Spyderco uses?

Cheap garbage that use paper thin liner ruined their reputation. A good liner lock isn't any worse than a good framelock.

I don't do safe queens. So, if anything sacrifices function it's not a dream knife.

Yeah, I got real accustomed to HAP-40 and can't go back to stainless. Selling my Military to a friend so I can more easily afford the P4 AND spread the disease.
