thanks... so... you think it was just a ring someone had made? i was wondering if it was like a soldier's ring or something... but i have no clue about this stuff. i was told it was from the civil war era but i don't know if that's at all credible

what's your travel knife?

i'm considering the ukpk but it's not legal in every state... the squeak may be a better option. anyways, what do you use for your traveling purposes?

Slip joint
Wire clip
Hollow grind
Caly design
Golden model

all for about 40 bucks? but when will they get the strong backspring?

don't worry, knifebro :) i feel your 1 spydie pain. although having 1 sure is nice! It's easy to forget that having one folding knife is a luxury many don't get to enjoy

the thing is if i did a regrind i'd be paying pretty much the price of a FFG delica since they're so cheap. i just have one spydie and i need to get another so i don't just have the one. it's a decent work knife and it's sharp but the grind isn't my favorite... should i even think about doing a FFG ...

how good is the sage as a box cutter?

just wondering... and i don't mean compared to a 5 degree edge zdp endura :P i mean does it go through boxes pretty darn well compared to a folding knife that isn't flat ground and does the s30v hold up.
