Re: Crazy Good Deals Part 2!!

I don't know if this qualifies as a crazy deal, but Knifeworks has the S90V PPT sprint on closeout for $194.95

Re: Future of the Mule Team Project

I hope Spyderco keeps the Mule Team Project alive. I only learned where and how to order Mules three months ago, so all I have is one in RWL34 and another one in the mail in PD-1.

Re: Knife Center Spyderco Annual Clearance Event

I ordered the Gayle Bradley Junction the other day at a very good price. I was torn between the Junction and the Native 5 Cruwear, but I wanted to try more Spyderco fixed blades so I got the former.

Re: Province - First Impressions.

Thank you for the very practical review. I use a longer blade for chopping tasks and a shorter blade for household chores, but the Province is very tempting.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???

I just finished using the Gayle Bradley 2, so this ZT 0095 is in my pocket while I sharpen the GB.

Re: Cruwear Micarta Native follow up to the Shaman??

I'm tempted to get the Cruwear Native with smooth G10 and see if I can get custom micarta scales made for it. I'm sure the smooth G10 is perfectly functional. It just doesn't make my heart beat faster when I see it.

Re: Official 2020 Discontinued List

I was torn between getting either the Advocate or the Junction from KnifeCenter. Because I waited too long, the Advocate was out of stock when I checked today. The good news is, the price of the Junction went down to $99.95, so I ordered it :)

Re: Have you had a folding knife open on accident?

Just once. It was a Hinderer XM-18 wharnie clipped to the waistband. Fortunately, I noticed it in time and nothing bad happened.

Re: Knives I wish I had bought two of

The PPT in S90V. I know they are still available, but there are so many knives on my "want" list that it is unlikely that I will ever have funds available for buying another one. I appreciate the points that Doeswhateveraspidercan made in his post. There does come a point when one has to g...
