Looks good. Are you going to sell your new double-secret low-rider clip?

If spydersense passes, please let me know.
Cruwear light gray gets way too dirty way too quickly ;)
At this point, it almost looks like I have a maxamet para3 :D

Re: Get a bug name tag with your screen name for Blade show

Wondering if we can sponsor some folks too? I was thinking of some of the blade makers who already responded, since I really appreciate their presence and input on the forums.
That makes Lance, Ankerson and Stuart.
Hope I didn’t miss anyone :p

Edit- missed SpyderNut!

Re: Smaller chokwe

Wire clip and comp lock. To stay with the feel, wood or micarta would be awesome. Any polished g-10 (except black) would still be great. Since it is a work knife, how about 4v? Or cruwear if still made in USA. Frankly s30v would be fine but probably cause a bit of grumbling. And please keep the holes.

Re: Blade Magazine knife show Spyderco name tag

Silly idea - but the squarehead is about the size of a name tag. Should make a tag that can be attached to the frn - maybe through the loop? The whole thing can then be added to a lanyard.

Re: Maxamet vs CRUWEAR vs S110V

Since you have the GB, it does make sense to pass on the M4 pm2. Cruwear and Maxamet are both great in their own ways, but it sounds like the premium you pay may be a deal breaker? If that's the case, would probably say the m390 is not going to be worth it for you either. I am a big fan of s110v. Th...

Re: If you had to pick just one?

I was going to pick the UKPK s110v - but if I could only have one, I would probably want a lock for the 5-10% of the time a little extra safety is needed.
So I would choose the s110v Para 3. Funny thing - I don't even own one yet.

Would love to see a drop point as well as a wharncliffe (like the orange urban). Not sure how likely either will be unfortunately.

Aren't a small number of Goddard Jr. in plain edge only avalable by Mrs. Goddard and not over the usual distribution channels? Maybe that is the reason why we don't see old boxes marked with PE.
Yes - this reminded me of an older thread:viewtopic.php?f=2&t=75077

Re: Info about Spyderco Wayne Goddard Jr. #C18PS

As I look at my own photo - not sure why my box says C18PS, when it is a plain edge and should say C18P? Quirky.

Knifeworks, GPknives and BladeHQ list the Waterway as made in the USA. Three out of four is good enough, right?

This is genius. Better steel than 8cr while still a lower-cost option.

Re: BHQ with a hap40 Lum Tanto exclusive?

Hey foofie, at the risk of being branded I'll try and answer your question. My Lum had the same issues as yours. After flushing the pivot area, blowing it out, and adding a drop of oil the grinding stopped. The blade still remains very close to the liner on the right side. After reading your questi...
