That's awesome!! I volunteer with an emergency rescue service, and their uniform is the same colour - it would match perfectly!!! (Just thought I'd share that with you! :D )

Centofante III Question

Hi all, Thanks for your help in the past. I have just ordered a Caly III and a Dragonfly SE - should be here in a week or so!! I have a question concerning my Centofante III however. With the knife closed, if I squeeze the knife, the blade moves further into the handle. The tip of the blade moves ab...

A tough call!! There is something special and clever about having a razor sharp plain edge, and yet the Spyderedge is quickly winning me over to the serrated side!! For the type of stuff I do, the SE makes things so much easier!

The Spydie Edge is really good for heavy duty work. I have used it to cut through antenna/network cabling, ivy and wisteria and 20mm sisal ropes, all without a single problem. I have always been a fan of plain edges, but since discovering :spyder: I'm starting to convert!

Cost effective Folders

As someone who was recently an average buyer, I would say the Byrd knives are the best most cost effective folders. I needed a knife that I could give a a good 'thrashing to' and not have any problems - but I didn't want to pay big dollars for it. My Byrd Flight performed all the tasks admirably, an...

I love that MeerKat you got I have it in a couple of variations & the book it is resting on in the photos the Ashley Book Of Knots is awesome! Well spotted. It's a great book, especially when I'm looking for a variation. I've had a go at a few Turks heads and Carrick Mats, but that's about as c...

Thanks for the replies so far guys. I have to say that I really like a large blade (Endura size is pretty good), but I also like my Meerkat. I think the blade on the Meerkat is a great size relative to the knife as a whole. Here are a couple more photos of it.

Favourite & Most Useful Spydie

Hi all, I'm new to the forum, and have only recently discovered Spyderco. I just wanted to know what everyone's favourite knife is and what their most useful knife is. I have found they are not necessarily the same. I do a lot of volunteer emergency work (mainly storm damage recovery etc.) and have ...
