Re: LC200N Native 5 Salt. Still no knife. Come on! When???

I've found that the only person getting upset over knife availability hurts is you (or me in my case). Things always work out on their own whether we throw a tantrum or not. You'll get your Native 5 in LC200N and then you'll totally forget that you waited so long for it. Have a nice, relaxing day my...

Reminds me of an Opinel knife.

Never worked out why they are still popular.
Anyone enlighten me ?
I've wondered this myself. They seem about as durable as a toilet paper roll.

Re: Let's get hyped for the Amalgam!

It still shows out of stock for me on BladeHQ. I don't know how their system works, does out of stock just mean preorders aren't live yet? I'm also excited, mainly to see what people make of it once they have it in their hands :D Dang... Yeah it says out of stock for me now too. Maybe it was just a...

Re: Let's get hyped for the Amalgam!

I'm not sure if it's a sign of an imminent drop but Blade HQ has their pre-order live instead of just saying out of stock. Fingers crossed!

Re: Gift for a friend

I'm going to have to go with the Resilience too. It's a big honkin' knife that would make a gun guy very happy. And it's around $50.

Re: What should I buy to practice sharpening on?

I got a cheap folder from Harbor Freight to practice on. It's half serrated but none of my quality knives are. It's nice to practice with it though.

Edit: the steel is 8cr13mov. Easy to dull, easy to sharpen.

I would love one but I have a feeling that my knife funds will be depleted by the time it's released.

Re: What's your "type"?

I don't feel like I have a "type". I say that because I seem to be enamored by random knives with different qualities. There are a few common denominators such as lock style or blade steel but even those are not definitive of my type. I usually know if I'll like a knife the first time I la...

Re: Are you cheating on the bug?

I have knives from several brands but I almost exclusively carry Spyderco. It's not brand loyalty (although I am very loyal to Spyderco) as much as being the right tool for my needs. I've yet to find another knife that fits my hands, my needs and my philosophy of use better than a Spydie.

Btw, those are some ridiculous prices for those knives. Is that really the best deal out there for them??
While I agree with you, that's pretty close to MSRP for these knives so it's not too crazy.

Re: Is it Time for a New Camo Pattern?

I think new camo styles would be interesting. Perhaps more than one. A digital, one similar to what you're recommending and a white "snow" camo would be sweet IMO.

Re: Emotional State based on Spyderco Availability?

Every now and then there will be a knife that I absolutely "need" in my life. If the release comes and, for some reason, I can't secure one then that definitely bums me out for the rest of the day. I'm usually pretty good about being where I need to be to acquire it if it's that big of a d...

Is that top scale screw CQI'd to the floating pin like the Para 3 has? It looks smaller than normal.
Yes, like all the new ones released in the last couple of years. Including the base S30V version.
Thanks, I was not aware.
