Cant say i want to tear through everything after the first week, having to live with it for 3 more :p

ID just wipe it down with some sort of all purpose cleaner and chuck er in my pocket

EDIT: You don't need fancy pants stones for a mirror, sandpaper to 2000 grit then the listed diamond compounds on tape or paper will give you a clean mirror too, and a sharp one at that https://youtu.be/V5t8vhQb54w

Mine arrived in New Zealand safe and sound, thanks!

Just got mine in from the good folks at SFO for the calendar contest. Its a fantastic knife. Going to take a bit of work to get the action to where I don't have to do hand acrobatics to close it 1 handed. And I do feel like it is begging for a liner lock, but they're my only gripes, its great otherw...

Thanks for the good laugh XD

If they were all M4 or M390 , I would continue buying and be pretty **** happy :D If they were all S30v, I would buy them but maybe not as many as the steel is often one of the parts that draws me into buying a knife or sometimes multiples. If they were all something like VG10, BD1 etc, I'd probably...

Oh man, I am beyond thrilled!. A lot of fantastic pictures in this calendar, thats for sure. Congrats to the Other Winners, and especially Attila!

My old FRCP manix did the same thing with the clip screw. But I was lucky in that I was able to use the grooves for the wire clip to get some pliers on one side and undo the screw.... In your case I dont know what to do. I tried all the previous suggestions and none worked, even the superglue one. O...

Starting to lose track of all your different usernames BBB , lol. Said it everywhere else, but thanks for the comparisons!

5-6 years ago I had a fluted and a Grey/ Cruwear millie. I carried them for a bit and inevitably sold them. They just didnt grow on me. Last year I bought a Shaman and instantly fell in love with it and thought it was spyderco's best design so far....Few months later I bought a S110v Millie and for ...

Brown rods leave a fantastic Coarse edge . I often polish my edges and run a coarse microbevel. I then get the aesthetics of a mirror edge and the cutting performance of a coarse edge :) Stropping the 600 grit edge will help you refine the teeth. Of you can do a couple of swipes per side with the UF...

Personally I would wing it. I mean he might be OK, but that feedback rating makes me a little nervous.

I cant see it either using Chrome on a windows 10 desktop. I highly recommend imgur. You can upload to a private album and it doesn't compress the pictures at all. :)

Hopefully my Full resolution entry actually posted through. The page took a long time to load , then when it presumably sent, it was the same screen again, no confirmation that the picture had sent.

Knife: Spyderco Military S110v
The Military knife has been my go-to knife for a little while now. It is incredibly lightweight, there are many steel and colour variants and most importantly, it is comfortable to use and cuts very well.

I find its more hassle than its worth getting it to split hair, so I take it to either 500 or 1000 grit on Shapton glass. with a couple of passes on the 16k and a few swipes on a 0.25 strop.

I like tip down a lot, depending on the knife.....
