Re: Spyder Anger

No need for apologies. I think what you were trying say is pretty clear. You got a little bored with your Spydies and traded them for something that you thought would make you happier, only to realize that Spyderco is where you belong. If were in your shoes I'd do some horse trading or sell what you...

Re: IN THE BEGINNING...

Wow that's very nice! I like how thin it appears.

I wish Sal & gang were still going to the TX state fair to show their wares. I'd love the opportunity to meet them and tell them thanks!

Re: Flaring the Tang to Ease Over the Detent Ball

I use the ball/curb stop to help close the knife. I push the liner over with my thumb to unlock the knife, then I use my index finger on the back of the blade to slowly move it the until I feel it stop against the ball, then I give the back of the blade a light tap with my index finger and the blade...

Not sure what's going on but there should be no problem uploading pics from your S4 or S5 to your Windows 10 PC. I do it all the time with my S6 and I just helped my sister-in-law do it with her S4 the other night over the phone.

Re: Question on uploading pictures from Galaxy S5

Okay... I confess to know very little about the fancy-dan electronics of today's day and age. :o Bearing this in mind, would someone please explain how to upload pictures from a Galaxy S5 to Photobucket? I usually just use my USB cord and upload pictures from my S5 to my PC. From there, I upload to...

Re: Which should be my next Spyderco

I bought a Native 5 LW a couple weeks ago and I have absolutely no complaints. It's extremely sharp, locks up like a vault, ergos are good for the small size, very light weight, etc I have a Manix 2 LW on the way so I can't really advise on that yet. I've seen a couple Youtube reviews and the guys r...

Re: New Spyderco owner, help with sharpening, upkeep

+1 on the Sharpmaker. I used my old single angle SM last night to touch up the edge on my Sage 2 and then finished with KP Strop Block. The Sage 2 is more than shaving sharp now. I sometimes consider buying a more expensive sharpening unit or going back to my old bench stones and then I come to my s...

Re: The .22 Rimfire thread

I am pleasantly shocked and surprised that I so quickly found two of you guys who are even aware of the older 5MM Remington Rimfire rifle. Because I believe it was either in the mid to late 70s when they were discontinued. If I remember correctly the ammo was rather pricey which is why I turned dow...

Re: The .22 Rimfire thread

One trivia question I want to throw up to you all >> Do any of you remember that Remington once also had another obscure Rimfire rifle in 5MM produced back in the 60s & 70s>> I never owned one but I heard they were also very accurate and comparable to a .22 Hornet. Very interesting thread and m...

Re: Your top 3 (Owned) Spyderco folders

This is a tough one! They're all so new to me.

Nicest/Most Expensive:
Sage 1
Sage 2
Manix 2

Most carried/used:
Dragonfly 2
Delica 4
Native 5 LWT

The Persistence will continue to see a lot of use too. I know it's a cheapie but I really like this knife! I just hate that it says China on it. :(
