Spyderco Forums

Oh yah, VG-10 - that's what I'm talkin' about!
P.S. I too, like to whittle. Did a little today whilst in the mountains of Waterton National Park in Canada where I live :D

Awesome story! I'm glad you got it back safely ( you 1st, and then the knife ). Excellent testimonial to Spyderco knives :spyder: What kind of knife and what kind of steel is it?

- best wishes, Jazz.

NKP are seriously clueless and irritating, aren't they - and isn't it hard being pleasant with them after their naive responses? I am, but it's hard.

In the past 48 hours I have: - cut dowm heavy cardboard for recycling ( Rescue 79mm ) - cut ham for an omelette ( Salt 1 ) - cut the ridiculous liner out of a new pair of shorts ( Salt 1 ) - opened up a shiny new package of toilet paper :p ( Salt 1 ) - opened packages of steaks, trimmed them, and cu...

Double that - What are you saying?

Seriously, that's sick and wierd.

Hello, Spyharpy. Try pulling it out quite fast. It'll open up all the way quite quickly. Just watch where your hand is placed. I can't believe how fast it opens. I learned it from this forum :)

-best wishes, Jazz.

Awesome, another girl who likes knives! Welcome! Nice knives, too. I really want a new Ladybug. :)

Very cool idea, and I also like the idea of hanging some on the wall. Thanks for sharing.

That looks right cool, Spydiman! I really like it! And yes, please be careful with
that stuff. :D

Wow, you guys all have excellent comments - this forum is very educational. I like full flats the best - nice, clean easy slicing. I like hollow, but I put fairly thin edges on most of my knives and, for example, on my native it's quite thin. The top of the grind comes fairly close to the stone when...

Hello, dyyys1! I don't think you need to sharpen on a stone just yet if it's still kinda sharp. If you have one, just use a sharpening steel. Strop the blade backwards with as much pressure as it takes 'til you feel the sharpness you want. All it needs is for the edge to be bent back from the rollin...

Yes... yes, um... gardening "escapades" do happen :o

Wow, the blade on that Lil' Temp looks like it cuts like a laser, Vincent.
Nice pics!

I'm new here, too, but welcome! I love when women carry knives. Very cool -
and very useful, am I right?

Very simple - I'm a big jazz music fan.

I respect your opinions 101% - use the heck out of it & enjoy doing it :D That's what they're for, I agree, and good for you. Just not what I'd do with it. I'd love to hear of how well it works and what it looks like when you're done. Man, that's a nice knife! Now I really want one! - best wishe...

Real nice Salt 1 pix Brian. Maybe I should get a serrated edge one for work.
Right now I use a Rescue 79mm - great for boxes and such.

- Jazz.

Oh, now maybe I need one, too! Thanks a lot! Seriously, it sounds like an awesome knife. Are you really going to edge your lawn with it? I use a big, cheap, ugly fixed blade for that. It gets RIGHT scratched up, dinged up, and dulled FAST. You're bound to hit some rocks or something. Just my experie...

Thanks again - you guys & gals are awesome :) I'm not really complaining - I don't NEED more Spydies - I just WANT them. I think all y'all can relate. Thanks again, Zenheretic - I forgot about those other Wegner models. I'm looking forward to a yellow Pacific Salt soon. My small one is my most- ...

Bell, even though S30V is awesome steel, I still winced when i read what happened :eek:
