Re: Would a D'Allara 4 with CBBL interest anyone?

The problem would be easily solved by scalloping the scales around the ball. The O.G. D'Allara doesn't have the problem at all.
Please don't ruin it by putting a CBBL on it!

I highly recommend him, fit and finish is superb and the overall feel is improved.
Is there a generic price range? I have wondered about adding custom scales to an Endura.
I don't know. I knew what i wanted and found his price acceptable. :) Shoot him a mail and ask!

Re: Katsu knives

I wonder if it's a Japanese-owned company based in Hong Kong/China, for lower manufacturing costs. 'Katsu' is a Japanese name. Jim Apparently the blades are manufactured, or at least heat treated in Japan. Regardless of origin, it's a smooth nice knife with scary sharp convex ground ZDP-189 blade.

Best way to get in touch is through email off of his website. Everything is made to order. He will ask some questions to ensure he knows what you want.

Re: Does anyone here ride motorcycles?!?

Actually the Panigale’s and a lot of the newer Ducatis don’t use desmodromic valve actuation anymore. They switched over to valve springs like the rest of the world. But yes, ANY V4 sounds ultra badass! Ape’s, Duc’s, Honda’s MotoGP engines and everything else V4 is just the best sound out there! .....

Re: Biggest sturdy Spyderco folder?

I am surprised that nobody has mentioned the K2. It’s a beast of a knife and really too large and heavy for reasonable pocket carry. The only beastly thing i found with my K2 was that it was apparently made to open once and never close - without the use of force, tools or both.. Lock stick is an un...
