$'s,

I did a search on this forum for you. I found that Guntholic said there was an article in the SN on May 7th. The entire thread did not mention the Chinook so I am not sure if this is the article you are looking for.

Take care,

Colinz, Think about your question. The answer is not a big stretch of the imagination. The designs are original, proprietary to Spyderco, and were displayed at a knife convention for the benefit of feedback. Permission was not given to photograph them. They have a lot of time and money invested in t...

I used to "hate mieces to pieces"

I have had my Wegner Mouse for a couple of weeks now. It is very nice. I love the blade shape as my forefinger lays across the top of it for very controlled cuts. The VG-10 is amazing. It is a beautiful knife. FYI, it came with excellent fit and finish. However, near the tip of the blade, on one sid...

Ramlanrafie, I used the Lansky for ten years. I almost forgot about my bench stones because the Lansky seemed like such an improvement. For the past several months I have used the Sharpmaker and can get much better results than with the Lansky or the bench stones. It is also a lot quicker and less m...

Sal, I am sorry for your frustration because of your hard work apparently being overlooked and underappreciated. You have a very legitamite complaint. If it is any consolation, I bought my first Spyderco, Endura, in 1991 and have not bought another brand since. I buy knives to use and yours are abso...

Tom,

Here is something I found interesting. I carried my SS Endura in a professional setting, professional attire, for 1 1/2 years before any of my co-workers even noticed. After 3 years, I still haven't had a client notice.

I am a fairly subtle person, perhaps that helps.

Take care,

jdllyons, Welcome to the forums. Sharpen the serrated Police using the fine (white) stones ONLY, forty-degree angle, with the corners facing each other. Remember to keep the blade perpendicular to the base and apply only enough pressure to remove metal, pulling the knife across the stones from heel ...

FtKinney, I posted this question to learn more about the Mouse as I do not own one yet. The responses were positive as well as the search results I found on this site. Mine is now in the mail! I liked what Tortoise said, he has carried his IWB for several months (,more now I suppose,) with no signs ...

opinions of Wegner Mouse

Howdy,



I am in need of a small knife and am interested in feedback from people who carry and use the Wegner Mouse.



Thank you.

Sal, The Delica was not my original choice for the anniversary model, but it was my first love. I carried one for years. I vote for a bead-blasted Ti handle, it would compliment a Damascus blade; maybe a discreet laser etching of the logo with "25" inside it, down near the lanyard hole. Th...

The flat-ground, G-10, plain-edged Police is one of my favorite Spydercos. It is a work of art. As someone who appreciates fine craftsmanship with an empahsis on durability and usability, I can't thank everyone at Spyderco enough for their hard work and creativity. I'm especially fond of Sal's desig...

Jeff, Mine is identical to the picture at the KnifeCenter which you posted earlier. The screws are below the pivot pin. The Police is a great knife. I am sure you would like it. If you haven't handled one, you should. It is much larger than the Rookie. Here is something I find interesting: this holl...

Howdy,
Very interesting. Do you have any idea how many hollow-ground, G-10 Police models were sold? Mine is serrated, G-10, no liner, and marked "POLICE".

Take care,

Jeff, The products page does make it sound like both serrated and plain are now flat-ground. If that's the case, I would have to say the hollow-ground is the previous style. However, if it is hollow-ground and has a David Boye dent, then it must be new. As if that weren't enough; I'll add that the h...
