Spyderco Forums

i can see your point, that name may seem macho, but look at spyderco over all. the kiwi, salsa, delica, endura, ATR, all of these are non offensive, discriptive names. Spyderco has always been known for making workhorse type blades, they are what you need and nothing more. The paramillie is ment to ...

hey man, its your 100+ bucks, so if you dont think its right for ya, send it back and get it fixed. With mine, i really didnt care about the cosmetic problems, as i was concentrating on the fact that the lock blew anything else i had out of the water. but thats my 100 bucks

ive got the original supertool, as well as the wave. IMHO the wave is not all it is cracked up to be. i find the blades to be easily bent, the screwdrivers dont lock, the scizors break, and it is terrible for left handed people. if your left handed, dont get one. the only cool thing about the wave i...

looks normal to me. the Chinook is not really meant to be a collectors knife, its built for work, i would say to just enjoy it and use it, and not worry about asymetrical grind lines.

Congrats Alex
gotta get him a chinook soon, :p. what are you planning on naming the little guy?

dang. i was gonna watch that one but i ended up getting sidetracked. sounds like it wasnt a good portrayal for sheeple though, may just scare them :

whew, was worried there for a moment <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

and what in the name of liquid soap were you doing looking at benchmades? <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>.

wait a minute. are you saying that it is going to be right hand only?

what you have is generally called a wire edge. basicly the edge becomes so thin that it easily moves back and forth, as you expierianced. there are many many many suggested ways to remedy this. one popular one is to strop the blade on a leather belt or a pair of jeans. that back of a legal pad works...

small knives dont intrest me. im into the larger(3.5 to 4)inch blades and preferably made in the U.S.A unfortunatly there arent many choices. as i see it theres the millie and chinook, i have a chinook and its too battle axe-ish, and the millie is a liner lock and im left handed. not a lot to talk a...

VW, i can open my delica pretty dang fast. i mean its about as quick as i can get it, but my draw and replace suck. if im wearing khacki shorts, the pocket just bunches up, and pulling the knife isnt always perfect, jeans im fairly quick with though. as for sharpening, the only sound ive come to rec...

the usuall thought is that tip up is faster. with practice though, either method is plenty fast. i can pull my frn delica open and have it back in pocket in 4 seconds or so, though i doubt ill ever be any faster than VP is

that sucks man, at least you had the skill to fix it. i woulda had to call warentee and stuff, gotten a new clip. ive never bent out a clip, though my meerkats isnt quite right after spending 20 hours clipped over my belt.

Glasshart was a regular on this forum, and was well known by many. last i heard she was having some family difficulties and had to go attend to them. i dont know where she is, but maybe someone who has ordered from her can vouch for her, at least id hope someone would be willing to step up and do that

i believe its five dollars.

i carry what works for me. i had been using a 110, but ive switched to a kabar precision hunter, (like 3 inch blade) and a meerkat for those sheeple

werent there a very few double bladed civilians made? i saw a picture of one here a LONG time ago.

On September 11th, 2001, this country was attacked. we must never forget this. we still need to pull together, and support our leaders and troops. as the years roll past, it is easy to put it out of our minds, but we need to make sure that we dont, we need to remember. PLEASE, dont forget, dont beco...

Druid, its easy man, dont go to a bar armed if you know you will get violent. VampyreWolf. much like you i learned to fight in the public school system. though my problem wasnt like yours, like prison school is tough, specially for the small guys <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 alig...
