Sal,
Sounds like your 3 steps ahead of us.The temperance FB,"Will be offered in both blade styles"I saw proto pics of the temperance jr,and the exaguarated(sp) upswept "rhino horn" blade is going to be the better of the two,can't wait to own it.
thank you

Fixed blade Chinook

Just a thought,but I found through countless use and some of the recent articles i've read I would love to see a fixed chinook.A little more exagurated guard as with the "horns" on the gunting,but same handle style,of course we wouldn't have a hole,but it would make the best hunting knife,...

Kitchen knife block

Sal, Ever thought about a nice Spyder block for the kitchen knives.I'd order the whole set.I just don't want my spydies in a drawer,how inhumane,and the soon to be wife asked me about some good kitchen knives.I told her Spyderco only or I'll throw them out the window.So the decision was made and wha...

I couldn't give you sound interpretation,but a comparison of a few I own would be
Chinook:Like racking a shell in a 12 guage pump
Gunting:Like pulling the trigger
Endura:Opening your eyes

My new Endura

2001 model,full spyderedge. I didn't think at first the endura could improve.One of my dedicated EDC's,my 98,but low and behold the evolution of perfection.The extended plain tip,david boye dent,And the old style serrations(I think) on ATS-55,from my point of view,a simple masterpiece.Seated next to...

Welcome to the sharp side Tom.

I've pondered this question myself.I believe if like crecy said you stick to cutting and passing or in my opinion if you can get a thigh slash or back cut and run like **** it would probably prove very effective.I carry a full size 98 orange rescue in my car religiously and if i'm somewhere and don'...
