A Pelican 1450 works well for folders on end, and is not too big an heavy to carry around. It will hold about 36. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v676/bsbg/CIMG3058.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v676/bsbg/CIMG3035.jpg I like this idea and it appears to work great.

This looks like another spydie to add to the list. I have played with a buddies and sure liked it a lot. Once I add a few more sprints to the knife drawer I will add one of these.

Nope, I would have gladly paid that price if I didn't already have one. I am almost tempted to get another one still, if nothing else to have for trading stock to try and get a CTS-20CP.

Price is the $194.95 listed on the website and they do have a few left. Just got off the phone with them and the person who called before me ordered 3 so you better hurry if you want one. I decided to pass on getting another one but was tempted.

Did a 411 mile loop myself yesterday. Most people have the hardest time with low speed turns on motorcycle's, practicing on a Sunday morning in an empty parking lot for 15 or 20 minutes before going on a ride will be time well spent. Another thing I like to practice is emergency stops when I am alon...

My dad is the reason I have developed a full blown case of spydercosis. He gave me a etched spin he bought and didn't like for a supplemental birthday present two years ago and I carried that as an edc for almost a year before I got my orange G10 UKPK and it has been a slippery slope ever since.

I got one of the last M390's from BBS and glad I did, I had to purchase my Orange Para2 on the secondary market and it hurt to pay a small premium over the pre-order price but that was the price I had to pay for missing out on the pre-order. Orange is my favorite color making me a sucker for any kni...

You are correct. It is zdp189 sandwiched between 420j2 so if you reprofile the tip it will expose the zdp189 core again. Just like sharpening a pencil.

Gotta love m390. I have cut really crappy stuff with my m390 para- cut a food can up with mine with minimal damage and it still had a paper cutting edge. Had a tiny flat in the edge that was gone after 2 sharpenings. It has cut a lot of cardboard without needing a sharpen, its a great steel. Though...

Jack
That is correct. Sal requested that we not take any pictures of the prototypes. All I know is that I hope most of those prototypes make it into production becuase they would be going on the must have list.

This thread is making me rethink selling the one I have NIB sitting in the drawer. I had all but made up my mind to put it up for sale to fund other spydies and now I don't know what to do. I already had the funds allocated to picking up a Caly 3.5 super blue. Decisions decisions......
